Springtime (around April and May) is a wonderful time to enjoy a luxury safari experience in Africa. In Southern Africa, the intense heat of summer has passed and the rains have ceased. While the weather can be a little more unpredictable around the spring months in Eastern Africa, game viewing is exceptionally good and the Great Migration is in full swing.

All our safari experiences are designed to connect with the local environment and leave a positive legacy by working with eco-friendly lodges that support sustainability and conservation initiatives.

Enjoy a spring safari to Botswana and Victoria Falls and experience this world-renowned natural wonder. Known locally as Mosi-oa-Tunya, meaning “The Smoke that Thunders,” Victoria Falls is famous for its massive scale, misty plumes, and roaring sound. During the spring months, the awe-inspiring falls offer the perfect balance between flow and visibility, ideal for those who want dramatic views without peak water levels. From Victoria Falls, some of Botswana’s most epic national parks await, including the spectacular Chobe National Park, known for its exceptional game viewing and large elephant population.
Known as ‘The Greatest Wildlife Show on Earth’ the Great Migration is the ultimate safari experience. Watch as millions of wildebeest, zebra, and other antelope species move through some of Africa’s most magnificent ecosystems in a constant search for better grazing and water. During the northern hemisphere’s spring months, the wildebeest can be seen making their way to the Western Corridor, through the Moru Kopjes in central Serengeti and up to the southern banks of the Grumeti River, where they arrive in the early summer months. The vast herds follow the Mbalageti River with its long grassy plains and woodlands providing nourishment. This part of the route offers some excellent sightings for an unforgettable safari vacation experience.
Big 5 sightings await when you enjoy a spring safari in Africa. Wildlife enthusiasts will have the opportunity to see some of Africa’s most enthralling animals, including the Big 5; lions, leopards, rhinos, elephants, and African buffalo, during a spring safari. Seeing Africa’s Big 5 is often considered the ultimate bucket-list safari experience. South Africa’s Kruger National Park, Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Crater, Namibia’s Etosha National Park, and Botswana’s Moremi Reserve and Chobe National Park all offer exceptional Big 5 game viewing opportunities.
