Let's plan your perfect tripWeather in Tanzania
Tanzania’s climate varies from the tropical coast to the cooler highlands and arid savannahs. The country experiences two main seasons: the green (rainy) season and the dry season. Whether you’re tracking the Great Migration in the Serengeti, climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, or relaxing on Zanzibar’s white-sand beaches, understanding Tanzania’s weather patterns will help you plan an unforgettable trip.
The Green Season (November–May): Lush and Vibrant
Tanzania’s green season is divided into short rains (November–December) and long rains (March–May). Temperatures range from 25–32°C (77–90°F), and the landscapes become lush and green, creating breathtaking scenery. This is an excellent time for birdwatching, as migratory species arrive, and for witnessing newborn wildlife. Some areas, particularly in the Serengeti, may be harder to access due to muddy roads, but fewer tourists and lower lodge rates make this a great time for a quieter safari experience.
The Dry Season (June–October): Peak Safari Time
The dry season is the best time for wildlife viewing, as animals gather around rivers and waterholes, making them easier to spot. This is also when the Great Migration reaches its dramatic river crossings (July–September). Temperatures are mild, ranging from 20–27°C (68–81°F), though nights can be cooler, particularly in the Ngorongoro Highlands. Coastal destinations like Zanzibar enjoy warm, sunny weather, perfect for beach holidays. With peak demand during this period, early booking is recommended for safaris and lodges.
