July – The cooler, dry weather is perfect for safaris, and the migration arrives on the plains of the Masai Mara.

If you want to combine your safari with some beach time at Diani, Mombasa, Watamu or Lamu then you’ll want to think about water conditions.

The pattern of the Migration is fairly predictable and follows the same route every year, so sightings are all but guaranteed.

The most popular time to visit Kenya is during the ‘cool dry season’ between June and October.
