Another weather question.. March?

March is typically still within the dry-to-transition period in East Africa. While rain can start increasing, it's often not the peak of the wet season. Your safari experience in QENP, Bwindi, and Kibale should still be enjoyable, with good wildlife viewing and primate sightings. Just pack a light rain jacket and umbrella for potential showers!

Another weather question.. March?

Hi! We were planning on coming in early to mid February for QENP, Bwindi and Kibale. But I am considering pushing it out a few weeks and coming in early March instead to take advantage of the lower rates. I know it is impossible to predict weather so I’m not asking for that. But how has the weather trended in very early March? Will there be heavy long rains? Any impact to our safari experience at QENP and the primates? We don’t mind rain but just don’t want it to be so bad that it really impacts our experience. If that’s the case then we will stick with February. Any feedback appreciated!
