💡 Good to know for this plan
- ~10.6 hours of daylight in November — the plan keeps days inside a realistic window.
- The drier season often makes rim walks easier, but high-elevation nights can be cold and clear canyon views are never guaranteed. Confirm the exact 2026 Chepe calendar, seats, road handoffs and park status.
- Light days: day 4, day 5, day 6 have one stop and time left over. Local tours and day trips are the way to fill them — each day links to what is bookable in its own town.
