When is the best time to book my Gorilla trekking holiday from Sudan?
January and February are usually fairly dry, and weather conditions are good for Gorilla Trekking at a time of year often thought of as low season.
March, April, and May form the rainy season in these countries, There are very few people trekking Gorillas at this time of the year, making it idle for travellers seeking to travel without crowds. Tour companies will Offer discounted Gorilla Safaris around this time of the year.
June, July & August are the best time to go gorilla trekking especially if you’re planning to combine travels in Tanzania thanks to the wildebeest migration taking place over the plains of the Serengeti. We recommend In-advance Bookings as bookings for hotels & Permits are very competitive; Hotels & permits can sell out as much as a year in advance.
September and October are the best time to combine Gorilla trekking with Mountain Climbing. This is the best time to trek Gorillas if you’re planning to see gorillas and also climb Mount Kilimanjaro, across the border in Tanzania.
November is another rainy & soggy month – but again, for travellers seeking great discounts on accommodation, and or experience without crowds – this is the perfect time to visit.
By mid-December, it’s eased off to light showers and if you’re looking for an alternative Christmas holiday, you might consider Gorilla trekking this December.
