January to March - Calving Season and Young Wildlife: These months are a good choice for travelers interested in wildebeests calving and predators spotting.

November to December - Short Rains and Fresh Landscapes: The short rains often bring fresh grass and attractive beautif landscape, while many wildlife species remain in the Serengeti National Park.
