Best time to visit Tanzania

Dry season, green season, and what each means for wildlife.

Best time to visit Tanzania

June to October

Dry weather and shorter grass make wildlife easier to spot. This is the busiest window, so book camps early.

January to March

Calving season brings predators and fewer vehicles. Afternoon showers are common, but game viewing stays strong.

What to choose

Pick dry months for first safaris. Pick green season for fewer crowds and better value.

  • • Dry: easy viewing
  • • Green: fewer crowds
  • • Migration: July to October
