When is the best time to go to Tanzania?
The best time to visit Tanzania depends on what you want to see. There’s no bad time to plan a
trip, but each season comes with its own highlights.
During the dry season (June to October), it’s prime safari weather. Wildlife flock to the watering
holes, and the bush is thin, making it easy to spot those elusive BIG CATS.
For trekking, June to October are the best months to climb Kilimanjaro. The weather is dry, and
you’ll have a much easier time summiting the highest mountain in Africa.
In the wet season, you’ll have prime viewing for bird watching and baby animals. With over
1,000 native bird species and migratory birds from Europe and North Africa, there’s plenty to
see if you don’t mind a bit of rain.
