Niger
Desert caravans trace timeless sands, November to February cools the Sahel’s embrace
01 · Overview
The best time to visit Niger is between November and February, when cool, dry days tame the desert and Agadez’s markets hum. With 25°C to 30°C weather, it’s ideal for exploring the Aïr Mountains, visiting Zinder, or camping in the Ténéré. For milder heat, try October or March.
