Tanzania is a year-round safari destination, offering incredible wildlife experiences in iconic parks like the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire, and Selous. However, the best time to visit depends on what you want to see—whether it’s the Great Migration, predator action, or lush green landscapes.
