AFCON Insights
Tickets are the easy part. Visas, transfers and accommodation timing are where trips actually fall apart.
The Mara moves on the same migration calendar as the Serengeti, with a coastline to close the trip on either side of it.
The trekking itself is a single morning. The permit is the part that actually needs months of lead time.
Volcanoes National Park gets the headline. Nyungwe's canopy walk and Akagera's Big Five are the quieter reasons to stay longer.
The Okavango Delta and the Kalahari peak at opposite ends of the calendar — and both are worth planning around deliberately.
Etosha rewards the driest months. The Skeleton Coast, oddly, prefers the opposite.
Kruger wants dry winter. Cape Town wants summer. September and October are where both itineraries actually agree.
