Popular questions about Tanzania Safari

Tanzania offers safari experiences throughout the year, each season bringing its own unique advantages. If you're seeking solitude and cost-effective travel, the rainy seasons—spanning November to late December and mid-March to May—are ideal. These months see fewer tourists, leading to more intimate wildlife encounters and discounted rates at lodges. However, the rains can be persistent, so it's important to be prepared for potentially wet conditions.

For those who prefer guaranteed sunshine and vibrant wildlife activity, the dry season, which runs from January to mid-March and June to October, is perfect. These months see clear skies, making wildlife spotting easier, especially around water sources. However, this is also peak tourist time, meaning higher prices and busier parks, particularly during the festive season around Christmas.

To strike a balance between weather and crowds, consider visiting during the shoulder seasons in late October, early March, or early June. These periods offer a blend of good weather and fewer tourists, providing a more relaxed and rewarding safari experience without the extremes of either season.

Tanzania safaris can range from 3-day adventures to over two weeks, depending on the destinations and experiences you want. We recommend at least 5-7 days for a more immersive experience.

For an Tanzania safari, pack light, breathable clothing in neutral colors like khaki and beige to blend in with the environment. Essentials include a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, insect repellent, binoculars, and a camera with extra batteries. Don’t forget comfortable walking shoes and a lightweight jacket for cooler mornings and evenings.
