Africa is a round the year destination. Migration and Calving seasons are popular.
Recommended colours to wear to the park are khaki, beige and white in all seasons. Please avoid bright and flashy clothing to the parks. In the hot Indian summers from April - June we recommend light cotton caps, hats, sun glasses etc. In the cold winter months temperatures may drop dramatically, so some warm clothing is essential. Due to the wind factor in open jeeps morning and evenings are very chilly, even sometimes up to March end. We suggest carrying gloves, warm jacket or fleece and woollen caps. Mid December to early Feb are the coldest months and warmers are also recommended for the drives. Africa is pleasant weather-wise round the year. Wind cheaters and light fleece should be carried for early mornings and late evenings.
