When to Visit

Best Time to Travel to Rwanda

The best time to visit Rwanda is during the dry season, which runs from June to September. This is when you have the best chance of seeing the country's famous mountain gorillas, which are frequently the main attraction of Rwandan tours. Because of the improved visibility in the forests, the rainy seasons (March to May and November) are thought to be the best month to visit Rwanda for chimpanzee tracking, despite the fact that they are quieter. Because of its equatorial location, Rwanda enjoys a pleasant warm climate all year round, with daytime highs in the late teens to mid-twenties and cool nights, particularly in higher elevation areas.
