The best time to visit the National Parks in Tanzania is between the months of May and November. The short rains come in December-January and the long rains hit again around March till May. It is NOT a predictable pattern, and East Africa has seen some crazy weather in the last few years; droughts followed by floods, for example. We cannot promise it will not rain, but as we begin our dialogue, we will tell you how the weather patterns are panning out at that time. For Kilimanjaro, the best time to climb is June-August when it is likely to be dry... but it will be cold! Zanzibar is hot ALL year round, but it is less so during the months of June-September. Just remember - the Indian Ocean is there to cool you off!
