Hi, I have a week off in end-May and am planning to visit Masai Mara and Amboseli during that time. Since it's rainy season at that time, are incessant rains playing spoilsport something to worry about? What would the road conditions be like? Any inputs from experienced travelers in this group would be very helpful. TIA.

Masai Mara National Reserve Kenya
Masai Mara and Amboseli in end-May
Enjoy an unforgettable African adventure in late May! Explore the breathtaking Masai Mara and Amboseli parks during the vibrant rainy season. While heavy downpours can occur, they typically subside, offering lush landscapes and potential wildlife activity near water sources. Road conditions vary; main routes are often manageable, but some tracks might be muddy. Consider staying with lodges experienced in the season and using a reliable 4x4 vehicle. Book early!
