November Safaris | Safaris in November

November is considered a high safari seasons probably because of the spill over of the safari activities from the peak season which ended in October. The short rains are expected to start in November and may be early or late by one or two weeks. The effects of the three dry preceding months is evident at the beginning of November and watering holes are fast depleting with the precious commodity - water. With the clouds gathering and the first few drops of rain beginning to fall, there is a sign of relief among the animals as there watering holes begin to refill. The short rains are not heavy and there is a lot of sun in between rain spells. The temperatures are still quite high and there is a high humidity during the day. There are fewer visitors to the game parks at this time of the year. This high season extends way into mid December.
