FAQs Tanzania in for April

1. What is the weather like in Tanzania during April? Being a rain soaked month with heavy downpours and overcast skies, Tanzania is going to remain humid. This might get uncomfortable for those who do not enjoy humid weather.

The temperatures go as high as 29°C / 82°F and go as low as 20°C / 68°F.

You can pack clothes such as regular T-shirts, trousers, or joggers for day time and something warmer such as a fleece jacket or a pullover for night time. In addition, packing a rain jacket, an umbrella, and anything else that would help protect you from rain would be a good idea. Also, carry shoes that dry faster and plastic or rubber sandals with proper traction.

2. Does it rain a lot in April? Yes, in April Tanzania experiences thunderstorms and rains throughout the day. It may halt your game drives for a couple of hours.

3. How does the rain affect the accessibility of roads and parks? With continuous downpours many roads become too muddy or get flooded with water, and hence become inaccessible. Although, your driver will be well experienced and know which roads to use and which to avoid.

4. Is April an ideal month for me? The month of April is beneficial for those who are on a tight budget and those who wish to spot a lot of birds.

A lot of accommodations and services shut down but those that remain open offer rooms and services at low prices. Although, please note that it would not be possible to get a budget camp as the campsites will be muddy or flooded.

Birding remains great during this time however, as many birds travel to Tanzania in search of water. You can find turacos, bee-eaters, robins, and many more. If you’re lucky you may even be able to spot fledglings in the nests.

April is also a great month for those who are more interested in natural scenic beauty than wildlife. With the increased rains, the wild areas of Tanzania will be covered in thick foliage, heavy canopies and waves of shades of green. It will be a sight to behold for those who enjoy admiring nature.

Lastly, if you’re someone who doesn't like crowds at all, then once again April might be a good time to visit. Since the crowd will be thin, your driver will be able to get you closer to herds once you spot them, and get the opportunity to admire the animals from a less distance which might be possible during other seasons.

5. Do I need to be worried about the TseTse flies? Yes, the Tse Tse flies and mosquitoes increase in number during this month. It is best to come prepared with light coloured clothing, insect repellents, creams, bands, etc. You can also request such items and a mosquito net from your lodge.

6. Will the rains impact any activities? Yes, the rains are likely to impact activities such as Hot Air Balloon Rides, Night Game Drives, and Walking Safaris.

7. What is the wildlife visibility like during this month? Due to thick foliage and presence of watering holes in multiple locations, wildlife visibility will not be great. You will have to spend more time searching for the animals. However, once you do find them, you will be able to get much closer to them than you could during other seasons.
