January

January is rather unpredictable, with the rainy season in full flow and possibility of cyclones, thunderstorms and high humidity it is best to avoid the coastline during this time. However. the prices are low and the water is at a tropical 28 degrees, making for excellent diving.

February

The rainy season endures making the weather unpredictable and best to avoid.

March

In March, the rains ease, temperatures stay hot but the humidity eases making it a pleasant 28-32 degrees. By the latter half of the month the archipelagos becoming bustling tourist sites, with boutique lodges filling up quickly.

April

April, heralds the end of the rainy season, offering clear sunny days and light winds. It is a wonderful month to travel, the scenery is lush green and the snorkelling and diving conditions are excellent.

May

Possibly one of the best months to travel, with the temperatures hovering around a pleasant 25-28 degrees, it is perfect for both beach lovers and culture vultures. Visiting Ilha de Mozambique and Ibo Island is particularly good during May as the cooler temperatures allow visitors to explore without bounds.

June

It's the start of the dry season, with highs of 30 degrees during the day. June is prime game viewing, with the largest conservation area in Mozambique opening, Niassa Game Reserve. If you're looking for a bush and beach safari, June is the perfect month to go.

July

July is a great time for wildlife viewing, it is the heart of the dry season bringing clear, warm and sunny days.

August

August remains clear and sunny, making it a beautiful month for sightseeing and game viewing, or relaxing on pristine white sandy beaches. Keep in mind that the Quirimba Archipelago can be rather windy during August.

September

Temperatures start to climb in September, if you're looking to snorkel or scuba dive September is incredible, with clear warm waters and abundant marine life - you may even see the whale migration. Meanwhile on land, game viewing is at its peak, with animals having their young and gathering around depleting watering holes in Niassa.

October

October is another great month for wildlife viewing and lazing on the country's beaches with temperatures ranging from 30-34 degrees.

November

November can be summed up in two words, hot and humid. With the rainy season on the horizon abundant sunshine can turn into thunderstorms which quickly blow over and you can be paddling in the warm Indian Ocean once again or viewing game.

December

December, the rains are back, but clear days are still abundant - if you're looking for golden rays and blue skies it's probably not the ideal time for you. Prices fall dramatically, while the sea remains temperate with divers able to enjoy sightings of rainbow fish, turtles and dugongs.

I have just returned from the most amazing trip to Tanzania, booked with Far & Wild. Everything went so smoothly from the first time I spoke with them. The planning was great, the itinerary was perfect for us, and the lodges were amazing. We spent 10 nights with an amazing guide, travelling through Northern Tanzania and even got to see the migration, which was a lifetime ambition of mine. This wasn't our first safari, so we were nervous as to how it would compare, but it was spot on. We're particularly grateful that she suggested a private 'bush lunch' in the Ngorongoro Crater as the public picnic spot was very busy! I will certainly be using them again to book our next trip....we're thinking of a relaxing beach stay next time to get over the excitement of safari!

Just back from another amazing F&W organised trip to Namibia with the family (8 adults). Having been there before, Alistair tailored our trip to include our favourite locations and added a new one for us, Okonjima Plains camp, which we loved.The quality of accommodation and guiding, activities, food and drinks was exceptional throughout. Although not inexpensive I felt it was good value for the level of luxury we had. Kwessi Dunes, Shipwreck lodge, Ongava, Okonjima with pit stops Windhoek (city tour recommended ), Swakopmund (Sandwich Harbour and Walvis Bay tour) and Grootberg lodge (best sundowner drive )

We had a wonderful trip to São Tomé and Príncipe - a small island nation in the Gulf of Guinea with paradise (almost empty) beaches and jungle forest. It was all well organised by Far and Wild and we stayed at Omali lodge at Sao Tome, then on Roca Sundy, and Sunday Praia at Principe - a great combination of different types of resorts/hotels. Omali is close to Sao Tome town with its colonial buildings, markets, hustle and bustle. Roca Sunday gives an old plantation experience and Sundy Praia a luxury beach experience. Very friendly (from time to time a bit slow) service, great fresh food, specifically if you like fish/seafood, vegetables and fruits (almost all sourced locally). Nice temperature between 23 and 30 degrees Celsius, nice swimming conditions. We really recommend this for those who want to experience a pristine destination with few other tourists and friendly and welcoming people. The islands also feel (and I believe are) very safe. At Principe, there are no dangerous animals, snakes or whatever, and it was great to be able to hike in the jungle without being very conscious of where to put your hands and feet. Go before everyone else does!

Back home again, basking in the joys of a superb safari. Every aspect you arranged for us, including linking up with Mack Air and Wild Horizons locally to transport us. The choice of camps, Camp Hwange in Zimbabwe and Muchenenje Safari Lodge in Botswana, was spot on and exactly what we had hoped for - ideally situated, comfortable, in good surroundings, and with excellent wildlife on the doorstep and throughout the wider country. The service staff in each looked after us very well, catering was excellent, and the game guides were professional, knowledgeable and helpful. The weather was, as usual for that part of the world, also good at the time of our visit. Blue skies and stunning sunsets. Warm but not too hot during the day, although quite cold at sunrise when viewing game. The viewing started. You made us happy, and we recommend you to similar safari enthusiasts with confidence.

Far and Wild went above and beyond to make sure my trip to Zambia was special. I would definitely recommend them and their services to anyone wanting to travel to Africa.

Lovely holiday at the amazing Almanara on Galu beach, a beach like no other. Far and Wild excelled themselves from beginning to end of our holiday in beautiful Kenya.... What a country!,

Wow! These guys are amazing. Can’t recommend them highly enough. Friendly AND efficient! Sorted out our trip (last minute and lots of different family member needs, sorry!) in record time and everything worked like clockwork. Trip of a lifetime to the Masai Mara. Will be back (and use F&W again!)!

It was a dreamy holiday on the Kenyan Coast - Far and Wild, their efficiency and professionalism allowed us to relax and be the happiest family alive !! We cannot fault them, their care and understanding of what we wanted from a holiday ensured we had the most memorable trip. We will be booking with them again for sure!
