The best time to visit Kenya encompasses good weather and brilliant wildlife viewing, which is usually during the dry season from late June to October. Within these months the famous Wildebeest Migration reaches the Maasai Mara - arriving in July and returning to Tanzania in October. As well as being great for animals, the weather is fine and dry during these months with temperatures regularly hitting the late twenties. Viewing wildlife is possible in Kenya all year round, but differs depending on which parks you visit - January and February are the months in which every park has something to offer. Peak season is May to November when the weather is finest but parks are most crowded. Neutral season is December to February, where climates are milder but crowds lesser, and lots of animals and their newborns roam free. The worst weather is in March, April and May when the wet season fully hits and many parks and lodges close down.
