Choosing the Best Time for a Motorcycle Tour in Tanzania


When planning a motorcycle tour in Tanzania, it's essential to consider the country's seasonal variations. The ideal time to embark on this adventure is during the dry season, which spans two periods: December to March and June to October. Our tours are scheduled to fall within this time frame each year. During these months, the weather is pleasant, with maximum temperatures reaching around 30 degrees Celsius. However, it's worth noting that temperatures can vary across different regions of Tanzania. The rest of the year is characterized by the rainy season, which covers the entire country. On the coast and in Zanzibar, the climate remains tropical, with hot and humid conditions year-round. Temperatures tend to rise between December and March. April and May are the wettest months in these areas. Inland, where the altitude plays a role, the temperature is cooler, resulting in lush green landscapes. While we can’t control the weather, we can ensure that your motorbike trip in Tanzania is planned for the most pleasant and enjoyable times of year.

Exploring Tanzania's Geography and Natural Wonders


Situated in East Africa, Tanzania shares borders with Kenya and Uganda to the north, Rwanda to the northwest, and Mozambique to the south. The country is traversed by the Great Rift Valley, a remarkable geological feature consisting of faults and volcanoes that stretches across East Africa. Within Tanzania, this valley boasts some of the most iconic landmarks, including Africa's highest peak, Mount Kilimanjaro, towering to a staggering altitude of 5,892 meters. Your motorcycle tour in Tanzania will also take you to explore other notable mountains such as Mount Meru and Mount Ol Doinyo Lengai, an active volcano that adds an exhilarating touch to your adventure. Tanzania's landscape is predominantly composed of vast steppes and savannahs, which serve as the backdrop for extraordinary wildlife encounters. The country is adorned with lush forests, particularly tropical forests, where an abundance of plant species thrive, many of which are endemic to the region. As part of your motorcycle tour in Tanzania, you'll have the opportunity to visit renowned wildlife havens such as the Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara National Park. These preserved habitats offer unforgettable wildlife sightings, allowing you to observe majestic creatures like zebras, giraffes, lions, and elephants in their natural environment. Along Tanzania's picturesque coastline lies the idyllic archipelago of Zanzibar, nestled in the crystal-clear waters of the Indian Ocean. During your Tanzania motorbike tour, you'll have the chance to explore this enchanting region. With its vibrant coral formations and colorful fish, Zanzibar's coastal waters provide a mesmerizing underwater spectacle. Additionally, the area is known for its sea turtles and dolphins, offering unique opportunities for encounters with these fascinating marine creatures.
