Best for first-timers · Jun – Oct
Dry season
The long dry season is Tanzania's classic safari window — vegetation thins out, animals cluster around the remaining water sources, and the Mara River crossings put the Great Migration's drama on full display.
What to expect
Long dry spells with almost no rain, warm days and cool nights
The Great Migration concentrated in the northern Serengeti and Mara
The best game visibility of the year — sparse bush, easy sightings
The busiest, most in-demand camps — book 8–12 months ahead
