Green Season in Kenya

The 'green season' in Kenya is often overlooked but it's a good time for the wildlife and visitor alike. The quantity and quality of game viewing is amongst the best on the continent, and even the most hardened safari-goer will find something to delight and surprise.

The long dry months tend to attract the most visitors, but the cognoscenti go in the lush months of the green season.

In March, June and November, you might get the odd storm, but these are quickly burnt off by the tropical sun. Your reward is watching the bush come to life. In a few days the plains turn emerald green, and tired over-heated animals stretch their legs and head out into the grasslands.

Visitors to the reserves have the wildlife largely to themselves, and towering storm clouds make for unforgettable sunsets.
