When is the best time to visit Ngorongoro Crater for a Tanzania safari in 2024 and 2025?

The best time to visit the Ngorongoro Crater in Tanzania is during the June, July, August, September, and early October dry seasons, as well as the January, February, and early March short rains of 2024 and 2025. Although the roads around the caldera can get rather muddy from April to May and November to December, you can visit the African crater in Tanzania. There are far fewer visitors this time of the year, and the crater is wonderfully lush and green compared to the dusty dry-season landscape.
