Best travel period

When to go

This itinerary is rewarding year-round, but the best time is during the dry seasons from June to October and December to February. These months offer ideal gorilla trekking conditions in Volcanoes National Park, with easier hiking trails and clearer views. Wildlife viewing is also at its peak in Akagera National Park, the Ngorongoro Crater, and the Serengeti, as animals gather around water sources. For the beach finale on Pemba Island, these same months bring warm, sunny days and calm conditions, making June to October an especially strong all-round window for this journey.
