A month by Month Guide

What is the best month to visit the Serengeti?

The best time to visit the Serengeti largely depends on what you hope to experience, but many travelers consider June to October as the prime months. During this dry season, the weather is generally sunny and pleasant, and wildlife viewing is at its peak. Vegetation is sparse, making it easier to spot animals gathering around water sources. It’s also one of the best times to witness the dramatic river crossings of the Great Migration in the northern Serengeti—an unforgettable sight as thousands of wildebeest and zebras brave crocodile-infested waters.

That said, the Serengeti offers incredible experiences year-round. If you’re looking to see the calving season, consider visiting between January and March in the southern plains, where you can witness thousands of baby wildebeest being born—and with them, the thrilling presence of predators on the hunt. Each season offers something unique, so the “best” time really depends on the kind of safari experience you’re after.

January

Dry season
January is an excellent month to visit East Africa, especially for safari enthusiasts. The weather is warm and dry, providing optimal conditions for wildlife viewing. Animals are often concentrated around water sources, making it easier to spot the Big Five. Coastal destinations like Zanzibar also offer beautiful beach weather, with sunny skies and clear waters. January is a great time to explore both wildlife and beach destinations in East Africa.

February

Dry season
February is one of the best months for witnessing the Great Migration in the Serengeti, as thousands of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles gather for calving season. It’s a great time to see newborn animals and witness the dramatic predator-prey interactions. The weather is still dry and pleasant, making it ideal for safari adventures. The coastal areas, such as Zanzibar, also offer warm, sunny conditions for beach vacations in February.

March

Shoulder season
In March, the long rains begin to arrive in East Africa, bringing lush greenery to the landscape. While wildlife viewing may be a bit more challenging in some areas, it’s a great time to visit the rainforests and see the beautiful foliage. The migratory birds are also abundant in the region. For those seeking a quieter safari experience with fewer tourists, March offers a more serene time to visit, though it’s also the start of the rainy season.

April

Rainy season

April is one of the wettest months in East Africa, with heavy rains falling across many regions. This means that some areas, like the Serengeti and Masai Mara, may be harder to navigate, but it’s an excellent time for birdwatching. The rains bring lush landscapes and fewer tourists, making it a good time for those looking to avoid the crowds. Coastal destinations can be wetter as well, but the beaches still offer solitude and peace.

May

Rainy season

May continues the rainy season, with lush green landscapes across East Africa. It’s a quieter month for safaris, as many tourists prefer to wait for the dry season. However, this is an excellent time for visiting places like Uganda or Rwanda to track gorillas, as the rains make the forests more vibrant. While some areas may be inaccessible, the reduced crowds make for a peaceful, off-the-beaten-path adventure in East Africa.

June

Shoulder Season
June marks the start of the dry season, with clear skies and mild temperatures. It’s one of the best times for safari adventures, particularly in Tanzania and Kenya, as animals gather around waterholes, making wildlife viewing exceptional. The Great Migration also starts moving toward the Masai Mara in Kenya. Coastal destinations like Zanzibar enjoy dry, sunny weather, making it a perfect time for a beach vacation combined with a safari.

July

Dry Season
July is peak season for safaris in East Africa, as the dry weather persists and the Great Migration reaches the Masai Mara in Kenya. This is the prime time to witness dramatic wildlife action, including river crossings, as thousands of wildebeest cross into Kenya. It’s an ideal month for wildlife enthusiasts and photographers. Coastal areas also enjoy great beach weather, with clear skies and warm waters, perfect for combining safari and beach relaxation.

August

Dry Season
August is one of the busiest months for East Africa, with great wildlife sightings during the Great Migration, especially in the Masai Mara. Expect to see exciting predator-prey interactions, including the famous river crossings. The weather is still dry and pleasant for safaris. For those looking for a beach escape, Zanzibar’s sunny, warm weather is perfect for a relaxing vacation. August is ideal for both wildlife safaris and beach retreats.

September

Dry Season
September is another excellent month for safaris, especially as the Great Migration continues in the Masai Mara. This month offers excellent conditions for wildlife viewing, with fewer tourists than in peak season. The dry weather ensures animals are easier to spot. Coastal destinations like Zanzibar remain warm and sunny, making it a great time for a beach holiday. The overall atmosphere is relaxed, with prime conditions for both safari and coastal relaxation.

October

Dry Season
October offers a continuation of the dry season, which makes it an ideal time for safaris, especially for those who missed the peak months. Wildlife remains concentrated around water sources, ensuring great visibility for sightings. The weather is still warm and pleasant. October is also a great month to visit Zanzibar for a beach vacation, as it offers sunny weather and warm temperatures, perfect for swimming and enjoying the coast’s natural beauty.

November

Rainy Season
November is a transitional month, as the short rains begin to arrive, especially in Kenya and Tanzania. It’s a quieter month for safari tourism, which means fewer crowds and more exclusive wildlife experiences. While some areas may experience light showers, it’s a good time for birdwatching and photography. Zanzibar continues to offer pleasant weather for beach lovers, though occasional rains may bring some brief showers. November offers a peaceful, less-crowded experience.

December

Shoulder season
December marks the start of the holiday season, and East Africa begins to see more tourists, especially in popular safari areas.

The combination of dry conditions and vibrant landscapes makes December a wonderful month for both safari and beach getaways.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a visa to visit Tanzania?
Yes, most travelers need a visa to enter Tanzania. You can obtain a visa on arrival at major entry points like Kilimanjaro International Airport and Julius Nyerere International Airport, but it’s recommended to apply for an eVisa online in advance to avoid delays. Visa fees vary depending on nationality, with single-entry visas typically costing $50 USD (or $100 USD for U.S. citizens). Travelers should ensure their passport is valid for at least six months beyond their arrival date. It’s also advisable to check the latest visa requirements with the Tanzanian embassy or official government website before traveling.
Yes, Tanzania is generally safe for tourists, and the country welcomes thousands of visitors each year without issues. Safari destinations, such as the Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Zanzibar, are well-secured and catered to international travelers. However, like any destination, it’s important to take precautions. Travelers should avoid walking alone at night, especially in urban areas like Arusha and Dar es Salaam, and use reputable tour operators for safaris and transportation. It’s advisable to keep valuables secure, be aware of local scams, and follow guidance from your tour guides. Vaccinations and travel insurance are also recommended for a safe and worry-free trip.
The Tanzanian Shilling (TZS) is the official currency, but US dollars (USD) are widely accepted, especially in hotels, lodges, and for park fees. It’s recommended to carry small amounts of shillings for local markets, shops, and restaurants, as smaller businesses may not accept foreign currency. ATMs are available in major cities like Arusha and Dar es Salaam, dispensing shillings, but credit cards are only accepted at high-end hotels and lodges, often with a 5-10% surcharge. Exchanging money at banks or authorized forex bureaus is the best way to get fair exchange rates.
