When is the best time to go on a Tanzania safari?

The dry season (June to October) is generally considered the best time for game viewing as wildlife congregates around water sources. However, the Great Migration peaks in July and August. If you prefer fewer crowds and lush landscapes, the wet season (November to May) is an option, but wildlife sightings can be more challenging.

What are the must-see national parks in Tanzania?

Tanzania boasts world-renowned national parks. The Serengeti is famous for the Great Migration, while the Ngorongoro Crater is a unique volcanic caldera teeming with wildlife. The Tarangire National Park is known for its large elephant herds, and the Ruaha National Park offers a more remote and wilderness experience.

What can I expect on a typical safari day?

A typical safari day starts early with a pre-dawn game drive to maximize wildlife sightings. After breakfast, you might have a leisurely morning or participate in optional activities like guided walks or cultural visits. The afternoon game drive is another highlight, often followed by sundowners. Evenings are spent relaxing at your lodge or camp.

What should I pack for a Tanzania safari?

Pack lightweight, neutral-colored clothing for game drives. Don’t forget a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, and insect repellent. Comfortable walking shoes are essential, and binoculars are highly recommended. For evening warmth, bring a sweater or light jacket.

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.
