When is the best time to travel?

The best time to visit is generally considered to be during the dry season, when weather conditions are more pleasant and travel is less likely to be disrupted, typically based on your preferred destinations. During this period, landscapes are at their most vibrant, wildlife sightings are more frequent, and activities can be enjoyed with greater ease. While visits are possible year-round, choosing this window is often recommended to ensure the most rewarding and comfortable experience.
