Best time for Tanzania Camping Safaris
You can do a camping safari in Tanzania any time of the year. However, it is important to note that the more rainy season in Tanzania is most significantly during the month of April and May when we experience heavy downpours in most parts of Tanzania and East Africa in general. During these months it is important to take note that it may become flooded in some camping grounds and most notably at the campsites in Seronera area;Central Serengeti. The rest of the months from January to March and from June to December Camping safaris in Tanzania are just as enjoyable as they are adventurous. Contact one of our safari experts if you want us to customize a special Tanzania Camping safari for you.
None among our clients who have been on a basic camping safari in Tanzania with us has come back dissatisfied. We have always delivered highly satisfying budget camping safaris in Northern Tanzania, more especially. In the South of Tanzania we tend to recommend budget/affordable lodging safaris whereby you can stay in a mid range or budget lodge or permanent tented camp mainly because the animals there are more rowdy. In Ruaha National Park for example or even at Selous Game Reserve where the animals are more rowdy we do not usually recommend doing a basic camping safari.
In Northern Tanzania though where the public campsites are more developed and facilities are at their best we really recommend a camping Tanzania safari for a safari that will bring you close to nature. See you in Tanzania on your next Tanzania Camping Safari!
