Exceptional Predator Viewing

Why SAFARI FRANK?
A Country We Know First-Hand

You want this to count, not just tick a box. Every safari we plan supports the conservation and the communities that keep these wild places alive, so your journey leaves Tanzania better than you found it.
Tanzania Safari FAQs
These are some of the questions we’re often asked about Tanzania safaris. For anything more specific, complete the inquiry form below and one of our safari experts will guide you from there.
Tanzania can be visited throughout the year, but the best time depends on what you want to experience. June to October generally brings drier conditions and strong wildlife viewing, while the early months of the year are popular for the migration’s calving period around the southern Serengeti and Ndutu. The green seasons offer lush landscapes, dramatic skies, excellent birdlife, and fewer visitors in many areas, although some camps may close during the heavier rains.
The migration moves continuously through the greater Serengeti ecosystem in response to rainfall and grazing, rather than following a guaranteed schedule. Calving generally takes place on the southern plains early in the year before the herds move west and north, with river crossings more likely later in the dry season. We’ll recommend the area and camp position most likely to suit your dates, but no specific crossing or wildlife event can be guaranteed.
Yes. Tanzania is one of the easiest destinations for combining safari and beach in the same country. Zanzibar can be reached by air from the main safari regions, and four or five nights usually gives you enough time to relax properly. You can stay entirely on the beach or include Stone Town for its history, architecture, food, and Swahili culture.
Northern Tanzania includes the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire, and Lake Manyara. It is the country’s best-known safari circuit and works particularly well for migration-focused and classic first safaris. Southern Tanzania, including Ruaha and Nyerere, is more remote and generally receives fewer vehicles, with opportunities for activities such as walking and boating in selected areas. The right choice depends on your season, time available, and preferred safari style.
Tanzania has a well-established tourism industry, and its main safari regions are visited by travelers throughout the year. We plan vetted accommodations and reliable logistics, with support available throughout your journey.
