Tips for Tanzania Safaris

Choose the Right Time to Visit

• Dry Season (June-October): Best for wildlife viewing as animals gather around water sources. The Great Migration in the Serengeti usually peaks around July-September.
• Wet Season (November-May): Lush landscapes, fewer tourists, and lower prices. The calving season (January-March) in the Serengeti is a highlight.

Pick the Right Parks

• Serengeti National Park: Famous for the Great Migration and year-round wildlife.
• Ngorongoro Crater: A UNESCO World Heritage Site with dense wildlife populations.
• Tarangire National Park: Known for large elephant herds and baobab trees.
• Lake Manyara National Park: Great for birdwatching and tree-climbing lions.
• Selous Game Reserve & Ruaha National Park: Less crowded, ideal for off-the-beaten-path safaris.

Pack Smart

• Clothing: Neutral-colored, lightweight clothing (khaki, green, beige). Layers for cool mornings and evenings.
• Footwear: Comfortable, closed-toe shoes for walking safaris.
• Accessories: Wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, and a scarf for dust.
• Gear: Binoculars, camera with extra batteries/memory cards, and a power bank.
• Health: Sunscreen, insect repellent, and a basic first-aid kit.

Choose the Right Accommodation

• Luxury Lodges: High-end comfort with excellent amenities.
• Tented Camps: A blend of adventure and comfort, often closer to nature.
• Budget Campsites: Affordable options for adventurous travelers.

Respect Wildlife and the Environment

• Avoid littering and respect park rules.
• Do not feed or disturb animals.
• Stick to designated trails and roads.
