Our July Suggestion

The first month the dry season is in full swing is July. All the parks in every nation are in their peak season this amazing month. Choosing where to go for the greatest game starts to be somewhat challenging since almost everywhere offers extremely high quality safari. Gorilla trekking in Rwanda is ideal at this time of the year. In the Indian Ocean, Mozambique is quiet and warm, while the winds pick up somewhat in select portions of Mauritius and the Seychelles.

Tanzanian

Tanzania in July spoils you for options. At this time of year, the Serengeti National Park is a major draw as the Great Migration drives up to the northern Serengeti where the first river crossings occur. Nearby Tarangire is also beginning to see the great elephant migration build. The true happiness of this month, therefore, is that Tanzania’s quieter parks awaken. The emphasis of the area’s game and great choices for a less commercial safari than the northern parks can provide is Nyerere (previously Selous), Ruaha, and Katavi.

The Republic of South Africa

July is the second month of winter, continuing on the peak game-viewing period in South Africa’s northern parks. The terrain gets much drier, which makes the creatures even more visible. But in the Cape, a maximum daily temperature of just 18°C accompanies ongoing rain. Still, the well-known whale migration goes on!

Botwana

The most well-known parks in Botswana are in their prime seasons for game viewing. At this time of year, the Okavango, Moremi, Chobe and Linyanti region are really world class. The whole Delta looks amazing as the Okavango is in full flood. The game has almost departed the Pans and the Kalahari completely as this northern section of the nation improves; if you are looking for good game watching, travel to these regions starts to be questionable.

Zambian

Every camp in Zambia’s peak travel season is now completely open in its parks. The vegetation has thinned and grass has been trodden down, indicating that Africa’s greatest trekking site, the Luangwa, is at its prime. At this season, the Lower Zambezi is a remarkable park.

The Republic of Kenya

July and August witness the Great Migration (hundreds of thousands of wildebeest and zebra) into the Maasai Mara from Tanzania, producing one of the most amazing animal displays in the world. Peak season in Kenya begins now, hence much effort must be made to ensure you choose the appropriate campgrounds and stay away from the busy regions.

Zambia

This is a really excellent time of year to visit Zimbabwe with almost little rain, beautiful skies and plenty of sunshine. Game viewing is easier as the vegetation is less dense and animals are beginning to cluster around the main water sources.

Mauritius,

Though it is one of the cooler months, July is a common season to visit Mauritius. With the trade winds blowing up this month it is normally better to stay on the West coast, where the beaches are sheltered.

Namibia

At this time of year, we adore Namibia as the weather are still fair and the nation is looking great. The wildlife viewing available in Etosha is also beginning to reach its zenith, so the best safari location of the nation would be a wonderful complement to any schedule here.

The country of Rwanda

With extremely low amounts of rain creating excellent gorilla-trekking conditions, July is the height of the dry season and can be regarded one of the very finest times of year to visit Rwanda. The erratic weather patterns around Volcanoes National Park make it difficult to forecast whether or not rain will fall, though. Particularly considering permit availability, July is a busy month for Rwanda and early booking is crucial.

Seychelles

With minimal rain and somewhat cooler, breezier air than the sweltering months of March, April, and May, July is a popular time to visit the Seychelles. The south-east trade winds make the seas on this side of Mahe somewhat turbulent; so, choosing where to remain should be done carefully.

Mozambique

With plenty of sunshine and less wind, Mozambique is a wonderful place to visit in July. Diving and fishing are also excellent activities at this season.
