Best Time: 2-Day Tarangire & Ngorongoro Private Safari From Arusha In 2026 - 2027

When is the best time for a 2-day safari from Arusha to Tarangire & Ngorongoro?

The best time to book your 2-day Tarangire and Ngorongoro private safari from Arusha in 2026 - 2027 is during the dry season from June to October, as well as the short dry spell from January to March. The peak months of July through October are spectacular for Tarangire, as thousands of elephants and migratory wildlife concentrate along the permanent Tarangire River. Meanwhile, the volcanic floor of the Ngorongoro Crater provides exceptional, world-class Big Five viewing all year round due to its resident animal populations and natural sanctuary boundaries, ensuring a high-success expedition regardless of your travel dates.
