A safari trip to South Africa is an amazing experience. It may be something that you have been planning for years or maybe you have decided to treat yourself to a last-minute deal you have seen online.

Although lots of people go on safari holidays during the summer months, going in December can give you a different type of experience but still one that is very enjoyable. December in South Africa is actually their summer so you can expect quite different weather than we experience in the UK at this time of year. Summer in South Africa is usually very warm but also can be quite wet. This may mean you need to pack different clothes than you would if you were going earlier on in the year.

During the summer months in South Africa, you are likely to see a lot of the big cats. t’s also a great time for bird watching as migratory birds move into the area.

A visit to Namiri Plains is not to be missed. It holds one of east Africa’s highest cheetah densities and provides reliable game viewing. A trip to Kenya is the perfect Christmas gift to give to a loved one. It will create memories that will last forever.
