When to go: East Africa's safari and birding seasons
The real answer to 'when should I come?' is a set of trade-offs. Migration season, gorilla weather, birding peaks, and the shoulder months that most operators quietly prefer.
Six days in the Mara across mid-September. Crossings at the Talek and the main Mara River, a leopard family in the riverine forest, and one very unusual dawn cheetah hunt.
Every safari we design is measured by the memories our guests take home. Here's what travellers from around the world have shared after exploring East Africa with our team.
