When is the best time to go to Likasi?

During these months, the weather is more predictable with less rainfall and lower humidity, making it much more comfortable for exploring the city and its surroundings. Temperatures are generally pleasant, typically ranging from the mid-20s to low 30s Celsius. This period is ideal for those planning outdoor activities or simply wanting to avoid the heavy downpours that characterise the wet season.

This is particularly beneficial for those on business trips or visitors planning to visit local mining operations or cultural sites outside the city centre, as accessibility is greatly improved.

While the dry season is generally preferred, some travellers might consider the shoulder months of April or October. These months offer a transition between the wet and dry seasons, often with slightly fewer crowds and still manageable weather, though there's a higher chance of occasional rain showers.
