Peak season:

June to September is the peak season and you’ll see it reflected in the price of flight tickets. Finding cheap flights to Kenya during this time is practically impossible so make sure you book as far in advance as you can to secure any kind of saving on your flight tickets. The costs of safaris also increase drastically as these are the months where the annual migration takes place.

Off season:

The main off-peak time is during the rainy seasons. Flight tickets will be cheaper and you’ll find better deals on safaris and hotels. You’ll miss the migration but you’ll still see plenty of animals out in the wild. January to February are the hottest months of the year but you have more chance of spotting wildlife around water holes. Any time outside of the peak months will give you a better chance of securing the cheapest flights to Kenya though so unless you only want to visit for the migration, consider the rest of the year for booking your flight tickets.

Temperature and rainfall in Kenya by month

Plan your trip to Kenya by taking into account the average temperature and rainfall totals by month.

Temperature

17 - 21 °C

If weather is an important factor for your trip to Kenya, use this chart to help with planning. For those seeking warmer temperatures, March is the ideal time of year to visit, when temperatures reach an average of 21.0 C. Travellers hoping to avoid the cold should look outside of June, when temperatures are typically at their lowest (around 17.0 C).

When is the best time to book a flight to Kenya?

Use this chart to determine the optimal time to book a return flight to Kenya. Price data was last updated on 28 January 2024.

Flights to Kenya can be quite expensive, especially during the peak seasons. Make sure you secure your flight tickets 2 or 3 months in advance to avoid paying through the teeth. It’s also a good idea to secure safari tours in advance too. Whilst the migration is a spectacle that should definitely be watched if you can, you’ll end up paying a lot of money on flights to Kenya, hotels and the safari itself so if you want to find cheaper flights to Kenya, book outside of these months. If you can be flexible with your dates then you’ll have the best chance to secure the cheapest flights to Kenya and find some good deals on hotels too.
