Best time to go and why?

It is best to visit Tanzania during the dry season from June to October when the vegetation is less dense and animals gather around water sources.

When is high season?

From July to March the northern circuit parks are generally quite busy. Animals are easier to spot from July to October and calving season falls between January and February.

When is low season?

The southern and western safari circuits are very quiet between April and May, with some lodges closing for the season. The northern circuit still experiences a number of visitors at this time.

When is the best weather?

There is little to no rainfall from June to October. Animals are easy to spot amidst the sparse vegetation and you can enjoy clear skies.
