What do you know about Africa? No doubt, this is a perfect location for safari despite the season and weather. At the same time, the best safari in Tanzania makes fans of this type of vacation come there 12 months per year. There are all conditions for hunting wild animals in the region. Moreover, Tanzania safari parks are full of lions, giraffes, hippos and other local environment inhabitants. 

If you can choose Tanzania tour packages with a safari option, this is great luck. Read our text below to find the best Tanzania safari options and other decent places to visit in Tanzania. 

Tanzania safari locations 

Ngorongoro Park

This is a place from the must-visit category. Just imagine that Ngorongoro will provide you with a full range of the “big five” in just one day. While the population of elephants, lions and buffaloes is pretty big, rhinos and leopards don’t often indulge in their presence in the parks of Tanzania. In addition, the park originated from the crater of an extinct volcano so you definitely have to visit Ngorongoro. 

Serengeti Park 

This is the oldest park in Tanzania. Moreover, UNESCO included it into the World Heritage Site. If you arrive at the right moment, you’ll witness the migration of two million zebras and gazelles heading to the Maasai Mara in Kenya. 

Every place in Serengeti is suitable for observing the wild nature. As for the “big five”, all of its representatives live in this park. However, you’d better not hope for a regular meeting with a rhino. 

If you decide to stay in Zanzibar, tour operator will provide you with information that traveling there is available round the year. You need only to choose a preferable time and make a travel route from Zanzibar to the ancient park. 

Arusha Park 

This is another northern park in Tanzania, which rarely gets into the tourist routes. It's all about the size of the park. Arusha is quite small, so it’s suitable mostly for small safaris. But the best time to observe animals is either in the morning or evening. Although you won't meet the full “big five”, flamingos and warthogs will surprise you no less. At the same time, there is an opportunity to go on a walking safari in Arusha, which is not widespread in any other park in Tanzania. 

Where to go in Tanzania

Zanzibar 

Do you dream of a beach holiday? Then come to Zanzibar! Here you’ll get free excursions, night entertainment, sightseeing programs and even safari. Price in Zanzibar for wild hunting isn’t too high, but you won’t get a real safari for this money. Be ready to travel to the best safari spots outside an island for an unforgettable wildlife experience. 

Kilimanjaro 

Tanzania isn’t only a safari, but also a hiking location. Kilimanjaro is the African highest point, and this snowy peak is a piece of cake for many travelers. There are two options: admire the volcano from the side or climb its peak. At the same time, you can reach the top only with an instructor.

Maasai Village 

The Maasai are one of the few tribes that have preserved an authentic way of life. They live in small villages and open access to their homes to everyone. During the tour you’ll see how people take care of cattle, get food and perform ritual dances. 

Best time to visit Tanzania and Zanzibar

Are you going to visit Tanzania? Zanzibar tours are available during the whole year. But if you want to get the cheapest tickets and accommodation, choose either June or October. As for the ocean, water temperature doesn’t depend on the season and you’ll enjoy it every month.
