I plan on doing a morning safari, since it will be somewhat cooler in the early am, as compared to the late afternoon/evening safari. However, I can do both, or I can do two mornings. I am tempted to do a morning and an afternoon, for contrast, but is it simply pure insanity to do the afternoon in the heat at the height of Indian summer? Or will the movement of the jeep and foliage, or some other intervening force of nature somehow make it somewhat bearable?
I went in April, AKA also bloody hot. We never had any issues with the heat at any point of the day, even when it too was close to 40C. The only thing I did have a slight issue with was the lack of any tigers. It's also surprisingly cool in the mornings, so expect to wrap up first thing.
