December in Tanzania is a season painted with vibrancy and life. It's when Tanzania’s landscape is drenched in the hues of the short rains, sparking a rebirth of the wilderness. This month invites travellers to witness the grandeur of wildlife and the lush, rejuvenated flora. Zanzibar's beaches, bathed with warmth and sunshine, offer a stunning contrast, promising relaxation and festive spirit, making December an enchanting time for both safari adventures and seaside getaways.
Tanzania in December is marked by warm days and cooler evenings, with temperatures averaging around 28°C. The onset of the short rains brings a refreshing touch to the landscape, transforming the dry plains into lush green expanses. This climate creates ideal conditions for safaris, as wildlife congregates around water sources, and for enjoying the balmy beach weather in Zanzibar, perfect for holiday revellers.
December is prime for exploring the wildlife-rich plains of the Serengeti and witnessing newborn wildebeests in their natural habitat. The pleasant weather also makes it an excellent time for beach activities in Zanzibar, like snorkelling and diving in crystal-clear waters or simply lounging on its sun-kissed shores.
To immerse in Tanzania's breathtaking natural beauty, the prime visiting period extends from June to October, the dry season. This timeframe promises the most vibrant wildlife encounters and the majestic spectacle of the Serengeti's wildebeest migration. Furthermore, the months of January to February are ideal for experiencing the remarkable phenomenon of wildebeest calving.

We (2 adults plus 2 kids aged 9+11) undertook a 10 day trip to Arusha, Lake Eyasi, Ngorongoro, Serengeti, Lake Manyara and Tarangire. We wanted an individual tour which included not only game driving but some insights into socio-cultural life in Tanzania (the kids attended a local school for two days and we wanted to spend some time with the Datoga tribe and bushmen at Lake Eyasi)
