When To Visit

Best Time to Visit Kilimanjaro

The best time to visit Kilimanjaro National Park is during the dry seasons, from June to October and January to February. These months offer clear skies and stable weather, ideal for trekking to the summit. The dry periods also provide pleasant temperatures, with less rainfall and fewer disruptions to outdoor activities. However, the long rainy season (March to May) can make trekking challenging due to heavy rainfall and slippery trails, so it’s best to avoid this time.

Our Travellers Reviews

Outstanding tour operator

I can't say enough good things about Bryson and Petit Maasai. Bryson handled our last-minute trip to Tanzania like he'd been working on it for months instead of a handful of days after we connected about a week before our family arrived.

Kilimanjaro With Petit Maasai safaris- 5 stars!!!

We book 7 days Kilimanjaro with Petit Maasai safaris after having the safari with another company and we made it with a brilliant guide to the summit. We took the Lemosho route, starting in the rain forest and approached the camp via various tents campsites.

A great experience!

We did a safari in the northern parks of Tanzania with Petit Maasai Safaris and it was a great experience! The guide and the cook were really professional and nice with us, trying to make us feel comfortable and to satisfy our requests. Thanks a lot!
