Visiting Serengeti National Park during the dry season, which typically spans from June to October, offers an optimal safari experience. The dry season is characterized by clear skies, cooler temperatures, and sparse vegetation, making it an ideal time for wildlife viewing. As water sources diminish, animals congregate around remaining waterholes, providing excellent opportunities to observe and photograph a diverse array of species, including the “Big Five.” The Great Migration, featuring massive herds of wildebeest and zebras, is a highlight during the dry season as they traverse the plains in search of grazing, creating a spectacular spectacle. The favorable weather conditions and increased visibility make the dry season a preferred time for both safari enthusiasts and photographers seeking an immersive and memorable Serengeti experience.
