Tanzania is a country located in East Africa, bordered by Kenya and Uganda to the north, Rwanda, Burundi, and the Democratic Republic of Congo to the west, Zambia, Malawi, and Mozambique to the south, and the Indian Ocean to the east. It is the largest country in East Africa and has a diverse landscape, including the famous Serengeti National Park, Mount Kilimanjaro, and the beautiful beaches of Zanzibar. The capital city is Dodoma, although Dar es Salaam is the largest city and former capital. Tanzania is home to over 120 ethnic groups, with Swahili being the official language and English being widely spoken.

There really isn’t a right or wrong time to travel to this stunning nation. What you want to see and do on your Tanzania safari will determine the best time to travel there: The Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara, and Tarangire are among the major national parks that offer excellent year-round game viewing, but visitor numbers peak from roughly June to October when the country is at its driest. The migration river crossings also occur during this time, but because the vegetation is less dense, all the parks offer amazing wildlife sightings. The best time to travel is between June and March if you’re looking for a tropical beach getaway to Tanzania’s coast, Zanzibar, or other islands.

Our Sereti Wilderness Safaris Experts will make sure you are in the best location to maximize your desired experience, regardless of the season you choose.
