When to Travel
When to Travel to Dunia
Peak season in the Serengeti is June to October when it’s driest, but there’s plenty to see all year round.
The Great Migration wildebeest herds are within driving distance of Dunia Camp for most of the year except August to October, when they have crossed the Mara River into the Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya. The busiest months for tourism are July and August. If you’re looking for fewer crowds, we recommend travelling at a different time of year, if possible.
Why travel at this time
The wildebeest herds are calving in the southern Serengeti. There’s a dry spell in January and February between the short and long rains, which begin in March. Migratory birds are in the Serengeti during this period.
Climate
The long rains begin in March, with showers expected in January and February. The average maximum temperature is 27°C/81°F and with lows around 15°C/59°F.
