The best time to visit Tanzania
A year-round country, with two very different personalities.
Tanzania is a year-round destination. There is no month without something worth travelling for.
The dry season, June to October, is the strongest window for wildlife viewing: the grass is short, the water sources are few and the animals gather. The green season, November to May, brings lush landscapes, dramatic skies and far fewer vehicles.
Migration timing depends entirely on where the herds are, so we route your camps around your travel month rather than the other way around.
