Kenya is primarily renowned around the globe for its vast wildlife parks and game sanctuaries, and it is often these wildlife parks that get most of the tourists’ attention. Kenya also has some magnificently beautiful beaches with warm clear blue waters. Thus, a visit to Kenya offers its visitors the best of natural forests and reserves as well as the best of coastal attractions. For great safari tours Kenya has to offer, engage the services of Jetwing Holidays, one of the reputed Sri Lanka travel agents.
Visiting Kenya can be a bit tricky depending on what you are expecting. For example, if you want to visit great parks of Kenya and witness its wildlife, the best time to visit would differ from if you want to visit the country’s amazing beaches. It becomes even trickier when you are hoping to witness a specific type of wildlife as well. So there is no one ‘best time’ to visit Kenya, as it all depends on what your plans are like.
Generally speaking the most suitable time to visit Kenya if you want to explore all of it; wildlife, parks, and beaches, is during the months of January through March. The climate during this time is mild and dry, so you can spend longer hours outdoors. This is not to say that one will not be able to witness the wildlife of Kenya during the rainy seasons, but do keep in mind that spotting game can be harder during this time. If you wish to be a part of safaris the best times are in the hotter season between July and October, or during the colder season between January and March. One of the highlights of Kenya is the Masai Mara Park wildebeest migration, and it occurs during the months of August through October. The beaches can be visited at any time, but do avoid the months of from March to April and October to November when the temperature and rainfall are at its highest.
