Really, any time of year is the best time to have an amazing African safari in Tanzania. Personal preference is the deciding factor for what time of the year is ideal for you. If you’re after a special, intimate safari when Tanzania’s parks are likely less crowded and you may feel like you have the entire hotel to yourself? Consider coming during the wet season. If you want to see trees alive with nature’s colors, and ideal weather? Consider visiting Tanzania in October or November. Is your heart set on witnessing a river crossing for Serengeti’s Great Migration, during the dry season? Then select dates in July or August. Tanzania’s wildlife is always moving; the flora of the national parks continually pulsating with life. Each and every month is the best time to experience the wonders of Tanzania. Select a time that best suits you, and be ready to be stunned by the natural beauty and thrilling wildlife of this amazing country. Contact Frati Safari for your customized private safari experience.

The wet season idea sounds so peaceful, like having the whole hotel to yourself... i never thought about going when its less crowded. Gonna bookmark this for later, that river crossing in july sounds like a total bucket list thing fr.
