Where should you go in Mali in may when it comes to the weather?
Remember:
The climate in Mali in may is tolerable across the board.
May is not the best month to visit Mali. The weather in Sikasso, Mopti, Bamako, Kidal and Tessalit is OK but just acceptable. The sun is not there all the time and you might make you wet by rain frequently. Nevertheless, if you don't plan a pool & relaxation trip but rather sightseeing, this climate may suit. In addition, there are certainly fewer tourists at this time.
It's much worse in Kayes, Timbuktu, Segou and Gao and surrounding areas where the climate is very bad. It is not recommended to go to these areas in may.
