Best Time To Visit

The Best Time to Visit the Giraffe Centre is during the dry season, from June to September. This period offers pleasant weather, making it ideal for outdoor activities like feeding the giraffes and exploring the grounds. The giraffes are more active during these months, as they come closer to the feeding area. November to March is also a good time to visit, as the weather is warm and the centre is less crowded than during peak tourist months. However, the wet season, from April to May, may bring more rain, which can make the trails muddy and reduce the visibility of wildlife. Top of Form
