For a quieter experience with lush landscapes, consider the shoulder months (March-May) or the green, vibrant wet season (November-May). December through February brings an incredible amount of safari babies.
Zanzibar’s tropical paradise offers sunshine year-round. The dry season (June-October) coincides with peak tourist season, while the rainy season (November-May) brings occasional showers but sees fewer crowds and potentially better deals.
