Best Time to Go
The best time for a safari in Tanzania is during the high season from June to October, when wildlife is easy to spot in dry weather. However, it can be crowded and pricey. The low season, from March to May, has fewer tourists but rainy weather that makes travel harder. The shoulder seasons, like November to mid-December, offer fewer crowds, lower prices, and lush landscapes with occasional rain.
