When to go

This itinerary can be enjoyed year-round, but the best time is during the dry seasons from June to October and December to February. These months offer ideal conditions for gorilla trekking in Volcanoes National Park, with easier hikes and clearer views. In the Masai Mara, July to October coincides with the Great Migration, bringing dramatic wildlife sightings, while January to March offers superb resident game viewing with fewer crowds. For the beach finale on Mnemba Island, expect warm temperatures and excellent visibility for snorkelling and diving, particularly from June to March.
