June

June is a glorious month for wildlife fanatics. It is the start of many peak safari seasons across some of Africa’s most renowned and best safari parks, as well the start of the humpback whale migration in Mozambique.

The humpback whale season has started, and what better time to visit either Mozambique or Madagascar if you fancy witnessing the incredible migration.

Tanzania’s most popular parks are in full safari swing. What better time to see some prolific wildlife and have the ultimate bush wildlife experience in Ruaha and Selous national parks. Botswana’s Okanvango Delta has also started its peak season. Its fascinating landscapes and wildlife rich paradise make it an incredibly memorable safari destination. June is a great time of year to visit the Lower Zambezi or South Luangwa region in Zambia.

Looking for sunshine and relaxation? Look no further! Mauritius is the perfect place for a family holiday boasting that ideal temperature for all activities.

Conditions for Gorilla trekking in Uganda and Rwanda are once again ideal, whilst Malawi and the Sossusvlei desert in Namibia retain their warm and dry days. These are also both great safari destinations.
