Introduction
Why Visit Kenya
Best Time to Visit
Kenya’s magic unfolds year-round, each season revealing a different rhythm of life across its landscapes.
From July to October, the Great Migration takes center stage — a breathtaking natural spectacle as millions of wildebeest and zebra thunder across the Mara River, creating the most iconic safari experience on earth.
Between November and March, the Green Season transforms the plains into a lush paradise. It’s a time of renewal, with newborn wildlife, dramatic skies, and fewer travelers — ideal for photographers and those seeking slower, more meaningful safaris focused on conservation.
The Dry Season, from June to October, offers clear blue skies and effortless wildlife viewing as animals gather around waterholes. This is also the best time for hot air balloon safaris, helicopter excursions, and crystal-clear photography.
For those drawn to the coast, December to April invites you to Kenya’s tropical shores — warm turquoise waters, soft sea breezes, and calm conditions perfect for dhow cruising, marine safaris, and turtle conservation along the Indian Ocean.
In Kenya, every season has its story — each one rich in color, light, and life.
