The best time to go to Timbunke is during the dry season, which typically runs from May to October.
During these months, you'll experience less rainfall, making it much easier to explore the region and participate in outdoor activities. The weather is generally more settled and sunny, providing better conditions for travel and photography. This period is particularly good for those looking to visit local markets, attend cultural events, or embark on treks.
For travellers looking to experience cultural festivals, the dry season often coincides with various local celebrations and "sing-sings" (traditional gatherings with music, dance, and elaborate costumes).
