Best Times
Interest Best Times Game Drives/wildlife - Good: December-February
- Best: June-October
Birding - Good: November-February
- Best: March-May
- Best northern parks: Serengeti N. P., Lake Manyara N. P.
- Best southern parks: Undzungwa Mountains, Nyerere N. P.
Herd Migration - December-April: in the south of the Serengeti, easily approachable from Arusha
- May-July: in the west Serengeti, toward Lake Victoria
- August-October: in the north Serengeti and Kenya's Mara region
Ngorongoro Crater is virtually good all year round, although March and April are less ideal because of the heavier rains. All the parks have great wildlife viewing during July through October, but the crowds are large.
One of our favorite times is December, January and February. The little rains are mostly over by mid-December until the heavy rains begin in March. The crowds are not there-it is "slow" season. During January and February, Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti National Park are excellent for viewing, and Lake Manyara is good. Tarangire National Park is fair.
