Best Time for 2 Day Short Tanzania Safari Tour
The best time for a 2-day safari in Tanzania, specifically in Tarangire National Park and Ngorongoro Crater, varies based on your preferences for wildlife viewing, weather, and crowd levels. The dry season, from June to October, is ideal for spotting large concentrations of animals around water sources, enjoying dry and pleasant weather, and experiencing minimal rain and fewer mosquitoes.
However, this peak season attracts more tourists and higher prices. On the other hand, the wet season, from November to May, offers vibrant green landscapes, excellent bird-watching opportunities, and fewer crowds, making for a more exclusive safari experience. The calving season, from January to February, is particularly fascinating for seeing newborn animals. Although the wet season can bring heavy rains and dispersed wildlife, it also comes with lower prices and vibrant scenery. Overall, the dry season is best for optimal wildlife viewing and comfortable weather, while the wet season provides unique benefits for those looking to avoid crowds and enjoy Tanzania’s natural beauty.
