Default Kenya - best travel timing during spring

Hello everybody,

for a 2-weeks-trip to Kenya I will have two timing options:

* around the end of February
* around the end of March

Seems that the latter is likely to fall into the rainy season. Should
that make me pick the earlier time window?

Areas of travel will roughly be between Nairobi and Mombasa.

Thanks

Hi

Both are good periods. Be happy you didn't have end of April as an option.

I would agree that February has a lower risk of extended rains.
I would prefer February for that reason.

Of course we're only talking about probabilities. It is not
possible to predict the rainy season precisely.
