Why Choose Tanzania This Summer?
While much of Europe experiences hot temperatures during July and August, Tanzania offers one of the world's greatest wildlife spectacles together with comfortable safari weather. It is the perfect destination for travelers looking to replace crowded beaches with unforgettable wildlife experiences.
Instead of spending your summer holiday on another busy coastline, imagine watching thousands of wildebeest crossing crocodile-filled rivers, witnessing lions hunting across the Serengeti plains and ending your journey on the white beaches of Zanzibar.
Witness the Great Migration
One of the biggest reasons to visit Tanzania during summer is the famous Great Migration. More than two million wildebeest, zebras and gazelles travel across Serengeti National Park searching for fresh grazing.
- Mara River crossings.
- Huge lion populations.
- Leopard sightings.
- Cheetah hunting.
- Elephant herds.
- Spectacular wildlife photography.
Our team can match your travel dates with the best parks, lodges and routes for your budget.
