Best Time to Visit Serengeti National Park
Serengeti National Park can be visited throughout the year, but the best time depends on what you want to experience.
June to October – Dry Season
This is one of the most popular periods for safari. Wildlife is easier to spot around water sources, and it is also a good season to experience parts of the Great Wildebeest Migration.
January to March – Calving Season
The southern Serengeti becomes a spectacular nursery as wildebeest give birth. It is an excellent time to see newborn animals and increased predator activity.
November to December – Green Season
The short rains bring fresh grass, greener landscapes and fewer crowds. This period is ideal for travelers who enjoy beautiful scenery and photography.
