Rainy season
 
Hi; we are currently in Mali heading down to South Africa in a toyota landcruiser: Unfortunately we have to fly to South Africa from Ghana and can only return to Ghana in April to continue our trip:

is it possible to get through Bennin; Togo; Nigeria; Cameroon; Gabon; Congo; Angola in April; May; June?

Any info on the rainy season would be appreciated:

Thanks:

Hi,

To cross Africa, from Ghana to South Africa, starting in April is perfect. The rains in Nigeria are not too heavy, Cameron will be fine ( a bit muddy in the south) and Libreville in June is DRY SEASON. Same for Braza, and Luanda. then you arrive to South Africa In June, July- also dry and lovely season.
Go for it!
