1. Is May too rainy for a luxury safari?
While it is the wettest month, rain often falls in heavy bursts during the night or late afternoon. Mornings frequently offer clear, dramatic skies perfect for photography.
2. Are all luxury lodges open in May?
Some remote tented camps close for maintenance, but we select elite, permanent luxury lodges that offer stone-built suites and underfloor heating to ensure maximum warmth and comfort
3. What is the main advantage of traveling in May?
"Exclusivity." You will often be the only vehicle at a major sighting, such as a lion pride or a leopard on a tree, providing a very intimate wildlife experience.
4. Where is the Great Migration during May?
The massive herds are usually moving through the Central Serengeti towards the Western Corridor, creating spectacular lines of animals against the vibrant green backdrop.
5. How do we deal with the mud?
Our luxury fleet for May consists of specially modified 4x4s with high clearance and triple-locking differentials to ensure we navigate the "black cotton" soil without hitches.
6. Is it cold in May?
It is humid and cool. Temperatures range from 15°C to 23°C. Luxury lodges provide cozy fireplaces and hot "bush baths" to keep you relaxed.
7. Is photography better in May?
Many professionals prefer May because the rain washes all dust from the air, the colors are deep emerald, and the clouds create the most dramatic "National Geographic" backgrounds.
8. What about the "Tsetse" flies and mosquitoes?
Insects are active in May. Our luxury service includes vehicles with electronic insect repellers and lodges that provide high-end, organic skin protection kits.
9. Can we still do a Hot Air Balloon flight?
Yes, flights operate depending on wind conditions. Flying over a rain-washed, sparkling Serengeti is a rare and breathtaking sight.
10. Are there any special rates in May?
Yes! This is the peak of the "Low Season." You can stay in world-renowned $2,000-a-night lodges for nearly half the price, making it the best value-for-money luxury month.
