When to Travel

There is no wrong time to explore Tanzania — only different wonders waiting. Each month unfolds its own wildlife spectacle, dramatic landscape, and magic across the Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Zanzibar, Ruaha, and beyond.

Season: Green Season Begins / Avg Temp: 26°C / Highlight: Tarangire Elephants, Lake Manyara Flamingos

The Emerald Season — Tarangire & Manyara
