Temperatures are warm, rains are short and nights can be chilly. The Serengeti is green and, with the rains, the wildebeest and other plains game have migrated to the southern end of the National Park, near Ndutu.
This is the period of the long rains. Serengeti is not only green, it is also a profusion of flowers and at its most beautiful. However, roads and tracks may prove muddy and waterlogged. With the long rains temperatures may be cool during the day and
cold at night.
First of the short rains begin and the migration moves back to the southern part of the Serengeti, usually reaching the plains by late December. Down in the south of Tanzania the rains start and that often means that the roads and tracks
are impassable.

The rains have ended and the wildebeest have left the short grass plains, heading west and north of the Serengeti. Temperatures are higher.
It is a excellent time to visit Tarangire and the southern parks,
such as Ruaha and the Selous.
