When to Visit Africa: Best Seasons for Wildlife

The best time to visit Africa is during the dry season—May to October—when wildlife congregates at water sources. Witness the awe-inspiring Great Migration as millions of wildebeest and zebras cross from Tanzania’s Serengeti to Kenya’s Masai Mara. Book early—limited availability for peak season! Reserve by September to secure the best rates and accommodations.

Travel Tips & Hidden Gems

  • Packing Essentials: Bring breathable, neutral-colored clothing, a wide-brimmed hat, sunscreen, insect repellent, and a camera with zoom lens.
  • Health & Safety: Stay up-to-date on vaccinations, consider anti-malarial meds, and drink only bottled water.
  • Cultural Etiquette: Respect local customs—learning a few Swahili phrases goes a long way.
  • Hidden Gems: Don’t miss the Ngorongoro Crater in Tanzania, Botswana’s Okavango Delta, or Namibia’s Skeleton Coast for off-the-beaten-path adventures.

Gabriella has helped me with reservations for 2 different trips. For both trips, she answered all my questions and concerns in a timely manner. She is always professional in her customer service, and her pricing of my trips were excellent. Because of this, I will continue to use Atlas for all my future trips.

I wanted to send you this brief note to tell you what a great job Gabriela has done in planning our trips over the last four years. She is efficient, courteous and promptly responds to requests. She goes above and beyond and researches various trip options while trying to get us the best deal. She has saved time and money and makes her clients feel valued and appreciated. Thanks to her, I have not had to haggle with travel and airline companies about trip details or prices. Your company is very lucky to have her as an employee. I wish her continued success with your company.

We cannot begin to say what an excellent job that our travel agent, Cheryl has always done for us, she consistently does an outstanding job. We are not seasoned travelers and she has always been very patient with us. When we inquire about anything her response is both rapid and fitting. If we were to able to travel more she would be our first choice to utilize due to her fine attitude and talent.
