The best time to visit Tanzania is generally June to October, during the dry season. This is an excellent time for wildlife safaris, the Great Wildebeest Migration, and climbing Mount Kilimanjaro.
Best time to visit Tanzania
June – October: Dry Season
The best overall period for wildlife viewing. Animals gather around water sources, vegetation is thinner, and safari conditions are excellent.
January – February: Calving Season
A wonderful time to visit the southern Serengeti and Ndutu to witness wildebeest calving and predators in action.
March – May: Green Season
Enjoy lush landscapes, fewer crowds, beautiful scenery, and excellent photography opportunities. However, heavy rains can affect road conditions.
November – December: Short Rains
A beautiful time for green scenery, birdwatching, and photography, with occasional showers and generally good safari opportunities.
Which month is best for your trip?
Wildlife safari: June to October.
Great Wildebeest Migration calving: January to February.
River crossings in the northern Serengeti: Often July to October, depending on rainfall and herd movements.
Mount Kilimanjaro climbing: January to March and June to October.
Zanzibar beach holidays: June to October and January to February are generally favorable.
Our recommendation: For the best combination of wildlife viewing and comfortable weather, choose June to October. However, Tanzania offers memorable safari experiences throughout the year, depending on your interests and destinations.
