Best Game Viewing in East Africa

East Africa is a brilliant game viewing destination - all year round!! Generally speaking the best time really is during the dry season (May to August) in the Masai Mara. The Serengeti Park & Ngorongoro Crater are both great for game viewing but may be a bit quiet during this time, when most of the wildlife is further north in the Masai Mara. The wildlife more more...

By huntley@escape4africa.com at February 15, 2011 | 2:16 pm | 1 Comments
