Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Expand all

What should I pack for a safari during the dry season?

It’s essential to pack lightweight, breathable clothing in neutral colors for safaris. Include long-sleeved shirts and pants to protect against the sun and insects. Don’t forget sunscreen, a wide-brimmed hat, sturdy walking shoes, binoculars, a camera, and any personal medications.

Will I still see wildlife during the dry season?

Yes, you can still see abundant wildlife during the dry season. Many animals gather around water sources, making them easier to spot. However, the vegetation may be drier, providing clearer visibility but potentially making some animals more elusive.

Is the Great Migration happening during the late June to October period?

Yes, the Great Migration typically occurs during this period. Wildebeest and zebra herds move through the Serengeti in search of water and fresh grazing land. Witnessing this spectacle can be a highlight of a safari during the dry season.

Are there any health precautions I should take during this season?

While the dry season generally poses fewer health risks, it’s still essential to take precautions. Stay hydrated, use insect repellent to prevent mosquito bites, and consider taking malaria prophylaxis if recommended by your healthcare provider. Additionally, protect yourself from the sun by wearing sunscreen and staying in shaded areas during peak hours.

Can I expect any special events or activities during this time of year?

While wildlife viewing is the primary focus of a safari, there may be special events or activities available during the dry season. This could include guided nature walks, cultural experiences with local tribes, or hot air balloon safaris offering aerial views of the landscape. Be sure to inquire with your tour operator about any additional opportunities available during your trip.
