TRAVEL GUIDE

When to Go to Africa

Zebra migration game drive
Africa is a continent of shifting seasons and spectacular contrasts – and knowing when to go can make all the difference. One month you’re watching newborn wildebeest take their first steps in the Serengeti, the next you’re witnessing humpback whales breaching off the coast of Mozambique.

Our month-by-month guide helps you match your travel dreams to Africa’s natural rhythm – whether you’re after iconic wildlife events, beach-perfect weather, or quieter parks with unbeatable value.
