September is a phenomenal time to visit Kenya’s Masai Mara National Park. The great migration has reached the Mara River, and predators including lion, leopard, and hyena are in active pursuit of the millions of plains game.
In September as the dry season reaches a climax, great herds of elephant, cats, and buffalo gather at the Zambezi, creating an awesome wildlife spectacle in both Zambia and Zimbabwe. See it all by open vehicle, boat, or even whilst paddling a canoe.
Namibia’s wild Skeleton Coast is somewhere mankind has no right to be. It’s a world of shipwrecks, desert elephant, vast seal colonies, and, away from the pounding breakers, a haunting landscape of pastel dunes and tiny oases.
Botswana has more elephant than anywhere else in Africa. Seeing the herds in Linyanti and Chobe is an unforgettable experience, and they’ll beguile you for hours with their playful antics and endearing commitment to their family groups and herds.
Lemurs are the postcard mental image that we all have of Madagascar – and with good reason! With over 100 species of these bright-eyed, leaping primates, all endemic to this island, they are truly iconic.
Sand dunes? Check. Campfire? Check. Crystal clear night sky? Check. In September the happiest of campers will be in Botswana’s Makgadikgadi Pan, a vast salt flat populated by desert adapted wildebeest, zebra, ostrich, and chestnut banded plover.
