WHEN TO GO

Dry season is the perfect season to visit Tanzania as the animals are moving to grasslands and thus make it the best time for animal sightings. July to October gets very less or not rain and the skies are clear, making it ideal for sighting of wild animals, it also helps that the wild roads are dry to allow access to the national parks. June and July are best seasons to watch the wildebeest migration. March and April you experience the worst weather as it rains heavily. January and February is the best time to experience wildebeest calving.
