Best Time to Visit Rwanda

Dry Season (June to September & December to February)

The dry season is considered the best time to visit Rwanda, especially for travelers interested in wildlife experiences such as gorilla trekking and chimpanzee tracking. During this period, rainfall is minimal, making forest trails less muddy and hiking conditions more comfortable. Wildlife is easier to spot, and travel between destinations is smoother due to better road conditions.

Rainy Season (March to May & October to November)

The rainy season transforms Rwanda into a lush and green landscape, offering beautiful scenery and fewer crowds. Although trekking can be more challenging because of slippery trails, this season is ideal for birdwatching and photography. Travelers also benefit from lower accommodation rates and a quieter, more relaxed travel experience.
