Tanzania tourism season

Not only is July the warmest and driest time of the year in the East African nation, but it is also the best time to witness one of the planet’s most memorable events: the annual mass wildebeest migration, from the Serengeti (in Tanzania) to the Masai Mara (in Kenya). Watch as hundreds of species trample on or attack each other. The sun-blushed landscape is stunning, and there are a range of accommodation options, from basic two-man tents to vast marquees with guards stationed outside overnight (should a zebra wander out of bounds…). Remember to take binoculars, as well as your very best zoom lens.


Also visit: During July, August, September or October, when rainfall is typically low and the sun remains high.
Best for: Animal lovers, and those after an unforgettable cultural experience.
