Best Time to See Elephants in Kenya

Elephant sightings are great throughout the year in Kenya but the best times to visit are December to February and June to October. These months are typically drier, making it easier to spot elephants as they gather around water sources. While the wet season (March to May and November) can still offer great sightings, the dry months usually provide better conditions for both wildlife and photography.
