When is the best time to visit Tanzania?

The best time to visit Tanzania is during the dry season that ordinarily fall  between the months of July and October. The reason why these drier months are great for visiting Tanzania for safari is because firstly; the bushes are less dense than during the rainy season. Secondly because that is the peak for The Great Wildebeest Migration and especially the river crossing.

However, Tanzania can be toured at any time of the year and you can take advantage of better rates and less crowds in the parks, if you decide to visit in November to Mid-December as well as the Green season of April – May. If you are interested in seeing the Calving and breeding of the Wildebeest Migration, you will be better off visiting Tanzania in February to March.

As a local tour operator based in Tanzania, we affordable prices for our safari tours in Tanzania. Our safari trips will take you to all the parks and conservation areas, including the most popular ones in the Northern Tanzania Safari Circuit like; Serengeti National Park, Lake Manyara National Park, Tarangire National Park, and Ngorongoro Crater. Other lesser-known parks and areas that we plan safaris to include the Udzungwa Mountains, Arusha National Park, as well as Lake Natron and Lake Eyasi for off-the-beaten track and cultural safari experiences like no other.

Besides these most popular attractions, we also plan tours to the less traveled parks in the remote Southern Tanzania Safari Circuit such as Ruaha National Park, Mikumi National Park, the Udzungwa Mountains National Park for the hiking and nature lovers, and the Selous Game Reserve. Selous has recently been transformed to Nyerere National Park, with only a smaller potion remaining as the Selous Game Reserve, which is set aside for hunting safaris.
