May to October Dry Season – Winter

  • Best time for wildlife viewing as roads are passable and vegetation is thinner
  • Weather is warm but not stiflingly hot (with the exception of October)
  • Even during peak tourist season, the park isn’t busy
  • Birding is better in the Wet season

November to April Wet Season – Summer

  • Birding is optimal with the arrival of migrants
  • The skies are clear of dust and the scenery is beautiful
  • There are baby animals around
  • It seldom rains all day and when it does, it comes as a relief after the long dry winter
  • Road conditions range from bad to impassable
  • It tends to be oppressively hot
  • Dense vegetation makes animals hard to spot
