Tanzania is a year-round safari destination, but choosing the right time to visit can make your wildlife experience even more rewarding. The country has distinct dry and wet seasons, and each season offers unique opportunities to see animals and enjoy the landscape. Understanding the climate and wildlife patterns can help you plan the perfect safari.
The dry season is the most popular time for safari. During these months, water sources shrink and animals gather around rivers and waterholes, making wildlife easier to spot. The skies are generally clear, and the savannahs are golden, providing excellent conditions for photography. This period is ideal for game drives, walking safaris, and visiting Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire National Park.
The wet season brings lush green landscapes, blooming flowers, and fewer tourists, creating a more peaceful safari experience. Although some roads can be muddy, many animals are still visible, and it is the best time to see newborn animals and migratory birds. The rains are usually short, so safaris can still be enjoyable, and the scenery is vibrant and refreshing.
