Twende Safari Tanzania!
Whether spoken in Swahili, English, or another language, “let’s go safari in Tanzania” rolls easily off the tongue. Actually as lovely of an idea as it sounds, December to February is an opportune time for an East African safari because of two factors: drier weather and February is the calving season for the wildebeest in the southern Serengeti. So why not take the time to go on a February safari in Tanzania?
Wonderful Weather Makes Safari Better Together
In December, Tanzania has grown greener by the day preceding a drier period once January arrives. The skies are, typically, sunny and clear (apart from an occasional cooling afternoon rain), which encourages wildlife to be on the move. Wildebeest herds stretch across the southern Serengeti showcasing signs of new life from calving season. Animal gatherings on the plains, around water sources, in lush lowlands, and throughout conservation areas make it easy to witness the awesomeness Tanzania naturally offers. Couples can’t get too comfortable looking down and around though, as the skies above serve as a canvas for the colorful artistry of migratory birds by the thousands.
Magical Moments
With fewer tourists than in peak season (June to October), December to February enables couples to enjoy a more intimate, customized safari experience. Costs are lower, amenities are plentiful, and Tanzania’s desire to please is high. There’s so much opportunity for shared, memorable experiences, with (intentionally) little time for technology distractions that’ll interrupt the safari vibe.
This slower period of East African visitor volume also affords greater cultural immersion and an increased willingness by communities to open local villages for authentic interactions. Tanzania’s national parks and game reserves set a breathtaking backdrop with stunning sunsets you need to see to believe. More lodging flexibility (private tents or cottages with incomparable views, outdoor showers, secluded spaces, etc.) provides an atmosphere of love that ties right into well-deserved respect for the coveted environment. Bonding over unforgettable hikes, the splendor of seeing a giraffe pace, or a candlelit dinner nature serenade are exhilarating experiences to expect from a Tanzanian safari.
