Best Time to Visit the Serengeti from Zanzibar

The Serengeti offers spectacular wildlife viewing year-round, but the best time depends on your preferences:
● June to October: Best for the Great Migration river crossings and dry-season game viewing.

● December to March: Ideal for calving season in the Southern Serengeti, when thousands of wildebeest give birth.
