June to October
This is the best time for wildlife viewing, especially during the Great Migration when millions of wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle cross the Mara River. The weather is dry, and the grass is short, making it easier to spot animals.
November to May (excluding April)
The landscape is lush and green, and the wildlife is abundant. However, some roads may be impassable due to heavy rains, especially in April.
