Great Reasons To Do Safari Early 2019


Why Safari between January and March? 


1. Escape the Crowds!


The northern parks in Tanzania are considered Africa's ultimate safari destinations (traditionally), which means that tourist traffic is high. By travelling in the a typical months you can avoid getting stuck in a game viewing traffic jam and having to compete for space at wildlife sightings.

Travelling in the less-crowded rainy season makes for a more genuine experience - one that allows you to connect more personally with the wild places and local people of Tanzania. In the low seasons when there are fewer travelers at the game lodges and on the game drives. This will guarantee you or your family and friends a more time and space to appreciate the wildlife and savannahs in harmony and engage with your guide/s and the local people you come across, such as the Maasai, Hadzabe or Chagga people. 

2. The baby animals!


Approximately 500,000 wildebeest calves are born in a 2 to 3 weeks period between January and March in the Serengeti. But that’s not the only reason you should see Tanzania during calving season. From lion cubs to elephant calves to antelopes, zebras and more, this is the time to see lots of baby animals. It’s also a favorite among professional photographers. The rainy seasons offer outstanding surroundings for photography in the parks, which come alive with the rains. 

3. Lots of predator’s activity!


Commotion from calving season pulls big cats to the herds, presenting some of the best opportunities to see chases. 

4. it’s the middle of the green season


This is when the scenery in Tanzania is lush and beautiful – great for escaping winter weather.

Hello adventurers, I'm Baraka, the founder and trip planner at Bantu Pori Journeys. Today, I want to share with you why the Mara River crossing during the Great Wildebeest Migration is an absolute must-see event, especially between July and October. Here’s an account from our expert safari guides, Danny and Hussein, based on our experiences from last year. The Thrill of the Mara River Crossing From Danny: "Last year, our guests experienced the Mara River crossing firsthand, and it was nothing short of spectacular. Imagine standing on the riverbanks, the air filled with anticipation, as thousands of wildebeest and zebras gather on the opposite side, ready to make their daring plunge. The crossing is a dramatic and chaotic scene, with animals braving strong currents and lurking predators. The sheer determination of these creatures, driven by the instinct to survive, is awe-inspiring." Why July to October? From Hussein: "D...
