Tanzania Weather and Climate

Tanzania is close to the equator, so temperatures change more with altitude than with the season.

Northern parks

Days in the Serengeti, Tarangire and Lake Manyara are usually warm, around 24–30°C. Mornings and evenings are cool, especially from June to August.

Ngorongoro highlands

The crater rim sits at about 2,300 metres. Nights can drop close to 5–10°C, so bring a warm fleece or jacket even in summer.

Coast and Zanzibar

Hot and humid most of the year, typically 27–32°C, with a sea breeze. Rain comes mainly in April–May and briefly in November.
