Best Time of the Year To Go Safari Tanzania
Tanzania is located along the equator hence temperatures for the weather in Tanzania are fairly constant throughout the year, although the rainy season in April and May is best avoided. Tanzania also has a light rain season also known as the ‘short rains’ followed by clear sunshine that takes place in November.
From December to March the weather becomes increasingly hot and humid before the rains return in April to replenish the lands once more. The Best Time to Go Tanzania for Safari are during the Dry season from late June to late October.
The best chance of view the wildebeest migration in the Serengeti is during June and July and the time for wildebeest calving is January up to February.
The southern and western circuit parks are best visited during the dry-season (June up to October), unlike the more popular northern circuit parks that can be visited year-round. Tarangire is the only exception, since its wildlife viewing is considerably better in the dry-season as well.
