Best time to visit Kafue
- June to October - the wetlands start to dry up from June onwards, drawing the game closer and closer to the permanent sources of water. Camps open - 1 June to 31 October when the rains start.
- November - the game is concentrated on finding the scarce food and water sources until the rains start to fall again in December
