When To Travel

The Best Time to Visit Arusha National Park is during the dry season, which typically runs from June to October. This period offers optimal wildlife viewing opportunities as animals gather around water sources, and the vegetation is less dense. The weather is pleasant, with cooler temperatures during the mornings and evenings.
