To say that Tanzania is a special safari destination is an understatement. The country offers a variety of interests for all, as it is endowed with some of the finest wildlife reserves and game viewing in Africa including the Great Wildebeest Migration through the Serengeti - an unmissable event. Added to which are the unique geographical features of Mount Kilimanjaro, the Ngorongoro Crater and the great Rift Valley. The geology of the area is as fascinating as the culture and traditions of the local tribes. Zanzibar too, has a long history as well as warm seas and stunning beaches. Safaris do not get more rewarding than those in Tanzania. When is the best safari season to visit Tanzania? -------------------------------------------------------------------------- As Tanzania is situated just south of the equator, the climate is relatively consistent and daytime temperatures average between 25 - 30 °C; the hottest months are January - February and the coolest is August. Tanzania is almost a year-round safari destination, with two rainy seasons which should be noted. The Tanzania long rainy season is during March, April and May and should be avoided. Many camps and lodges close during this period as there is high humidity and difficult in road passage. The second rainy season is the 'short rains' which occur in October to November, still offering pleasant sunny afternoons and less frequent and intense downpours. The short rains are a popular time to visit Tanzania as it coincides with the expected (not guaranteed) period when the Wildebeest Migration cross the Mara River. If the main aim of your Tanzania safari is to witness the annual Wildebeest Migration, then the timing of your safari and camp location is highly important. As the majority of the Tanzania northern circuit is at a higher altitude than the rest of the country, it is generally cooler than coastal regions and parts of the Southern safari circuit (which can be a welcome relief) Many of our clients combine a safari experience with a trip to the Island of Zanzibar thereafter. The best season to visit Zanzibar follows similar patterns to that of the northern safari circuit, with the long rains in April and May to be avoided (and be warned of the heat in January and February). The rest of the year is largely sunny and warm, with water temperatures very pleasant for swimming. Climbing Kilimanjaro can be attempted year-round (best July to October), but night-time temperatures drop well below zero. For a beach holiday in Zanzibar the best time is during the dry season (June to October). See in Tanzania ---------------------------- The fabled Serengeti National Park is the cornerstone of the northern circuit safari and home to an inordinate amount and variety of wildlife, including supporting 30 percent of the world's lion population. It is here that the Great Wildebeest Migration originates, as 2 million wildebeest and gazelle continually move in their quest for fresh grazing, better quality water and rebirth. Nearby is another Tanzanian safari icon, Ngorongoro Crater which is the remains of an imploded caldera and literally a wildlife Garden of Eden, with incredible numbers and great variety of game and bird's. Still in Tanzania's northern circuit are Lake Manyara National Park, famed for tree climbing lions and migratory flamingos, and Tarangire National Park, excellent to visit as a first stop-off on a northern circuit safari. Both however, are overshadowed by the Great Rift Valley, which looms up dramatically next to these parks from the bottom of Lake Eyasi. A visitor to Tanzania should also consider the southern circuit, encompassing the immense and untamed Selous Game Reserve, remote wildlife reserves such as Ruaha National Park and Katavi National Park. If you prefer an isolated Safari experience, more remote, greater distances (flying between reserves is optional) fewer tourists, than this sort of Safari experience is possibly the best option. Reviews of safaris to Tanzania ---------------------------------------------- Absolutely loved it! We really loved ever minute of our African Adventure. Our safari in Kenya and Tanzania was simply wonderful. From day one to day twelve it built into the realizing of a long held wish of an Africa Safari. We were able to get up close to all the wild beasts of Africa. To travel the Masai Mare , Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater seeing the animals and landscapes was committing our wishes to memory. Our sojourn to Cape Town and Victoria Falls rounded off our adventure. Beautiful Tanzania! Africa was breath taking, the pictures I took could not capture the beauty, the lushness or the expansive nature of Tanzania!
