In the Tanzanian universe, April and May mean heavy rain, with even very intense thunderstorms, often combined with windy days. Naturally, the rains do not start from one day to the next, but gradually and increase in intensity as the days go by.
IT’S RAINING EVERYWHERE
The big rains affect the entire Tanzanian territory, although in different ways depending on the location.

THE REBIRTH OF NATURE
During the long rainy season, nature is reinvigorated and the parks become lush and with an extraordinary profusion of animals. Water brings with it lush pastures, relief from the heat and life awakens.
In Tanzania the whole year is marked by the alternation of dry and wet seasons with consequences on the territory, animals and moods.

THE GREAT MIGRATION IN THE SERENGETI MOVING WESTWARD
The Great Migration in the Serengeti begins to move towards the western area of the park, the Western Corridor where in June there will be the first of the crossings of the two main rivers and one of the greatest dangers for the herds due to the presence of the gigantic crocodiles lurking on their backs.

As far as tourism is concerned, this period is very quiet, and the very few travelers allow you to have a different, quiet and cheaper safari. It is also the perfect opportunity to dedicate yourself to cultural tourism and come into contact with the wonderful facets of Tanzanian culture.
INTERESTING OFFERS
Both in mainland Tanzania and on the islands, lodges and resorts offer accommodation at really attractive prices, even if, on the islands, it is the humid time of the year, with intense but short-lived storms.
Back to topADVENTURE ALWAYS AND ANYWAY
Setting off on safari in Tanzania during an unconventional period may seem like a bold and perhaps unconventional choice. However, as with any decision that goes outside the box, there are aspects that make it unique and fascinating.
Firstly, choosing to venture out at a less traditional time can offer the opportunity to experience nature in a different, less touristy and more authentic guise. While most adventurers might prefer peak periods, during which the fauna shows itself in all its splendour, opting for a different time might offer rare sightings or unseen views, far from the masses.
Another advantage of this choice may be the chance to experience the true spirit of adventure. A photo safari, in itself, is already an experience charged with excitement and anticipation. But adding an element of unpredictability, due to the less traditional period, can amplify the sense of discovery and the adrenaline rush of the trip.
This ‘extra dash of adventure’ could translate into unexpected encounters with wildlife, or special weather conditions that enrich the photos taken.
