Coronavirus Impedes Tourism Sector Ahead Of Peak Season

The local industry’s season peaks between May to October as the lack of rainfall means higher sightings of animals due to sparse surroundings. During these dry months, the animals congregate at the available waterholes in large numbers making viewing easier.

In addition, the minimal rainfall during these months allows safari vehicles to better traverse the bushes, as opposed to the wet season where the dirt terrain can become impossible to negotiate.
