All Months
June through October brings dry weather and the Great Migration. This is peak safari season, which means higher prices and crowded game drives. But the wildlife viewing is spectacular. January and February offer another dry window with fewer tourists and lower costs. The wildebeest calving happens in the southern Serengeti during this time. March through May brings heavy rains that turn roads to rivers. Many camps close, and the ones that stay open offer deep discounts. November can be tricky — short rains might start early or late. The weather in Arusha itself stays relatively stable year-round thanks to the altitude. Daytime temperatures hover around 75°F, dropping to 55°F at night. Pack layers regardless of when you visit.
