Serengeti Tour and Holiday Information
When to visit.
The climate of Serengeti is warm and dry. The tropical rainy season is from March to May, with short rains from October to November. The Serengeti is luxuriant, succulent and green after the rains, but a steady drying up follows, which inhibits plant growth and encourages the animals to move looking for waters.
With heights ranging from 920 to 1,830 metres, mean temperatures range from 15 to 26 degrees Celsius. The coldest temperatures are experienced from June to October.
