Best time to see mountain gorillas in Africa.
Gorillas are available all year round and the decision for when you visit is upon your program and the permit availability. During the peak months of June, July, and August the permits easily get done due to the large number of tourists who book them due to favorable weather conditions during these dry months which make trekking more comfortable. During the dry seasons, the slopes are dry making walks easier however during rainy seasons the slopes are slippery however this doesn’t stop you from gaining yourself an ultimate lifetime gorilla experience.
January and February experience both rainy and sunny weather conditions with Rwanda, Congo, and Uganda and this makes them fair for your gorilla trekking safari though they are thought of being low season.
March, April, and May are rainy seasons and this makes gorilla trekking a lit bit challenging due to slippery slopes however during these months there are higher chances of getting a discounted gorilla trekking permit in Uganda and Congo.
June, July, and August are dry months making them the best for tourism and the gorilla trekking experience and you can as well plan to add a visit to Tanzania and see the wildebeest migration taking place in the plains of Serengeti. This is a peak season and as you plan a gorilla trekking safari during these months do not forget to book in advance.
September and October will work for those craving to climb Mountain Kilimanjaro since the weather conditions in these months favor both hiking and gorilla trekking. For gorilla trekking, permits are more available due to fewer tourists.
November. This is a rainy month and this makes trails muddy making the experience challenging however there are discounts on permits and some hotels. Uganda and Congo lower the permit costs at times during this season.
December. During this holiday season you may be thinking of a holiday break with our closely related cousins, yes go ahead and book a permit in advance and prepare for your gorilla problem because December has no problem with you.
