Tarangire National Park is known for its large herds of elephants, ancient baobab trees, and diverse wildlife such as lions, leopards, giraffes, zebras, and over 500 bird species.
Serengeti National Park is home to the legendary Great Migration (seasonal), where thousands of wildebeest and zebras cross the vast plains. You may also spot the Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, rhino) along with cheetahs, hippos, crocodiles, and an incredible variety of birds.

Best Time to Travel & Safari Seasons: Tanzania offers great safari experiences year-round, but each season has its own advantages.
The dry season (June - October) is the peak safari season, best for wildlife viewing as animals gather around water sources. The skies are clear, there are fewer mosquitoes, and it’s a great time for the Great Migration river crossings (July - September) in northern Serengeti.
The green season (November - May) offers lush landscapes and fewer crowds. It is the best time for birdwatching with migratory species arriving. The calving season (January - March) in Serengeti attracts predators, and the scenic landscapes come with fewer tourists and lower safari prices.
