Seasons to travel

The walk is spectacular you can see the mandrills bothering the elephants with the fruits while they are under the trees. The migratory birds arrive and the Zambezi River is flooded bringing a spectacular dew of fog over Victoria Falls.

The green season begins to fade and water levels in the rivers begin to decline. The camps close and begin opening in June when the days are clear. Between August and September temperatures rise and wildlife is concentrated in permanent water wells.

Rains decrease bringing cold, clear days, morning fog spreads over the Rift Valley and the central highlands. The migration begins its journey from the Serengeti across the Mara River to Kenya, forming long rows of herds that go deeper into the Mara.
