safari in early august: kenia or tanzania?
Months of July and August are the winter seasons in Tanzania / Kenya...however it is advisable to carry with you sweaters and warm clothing's. At Zanzibar, the temperatures don't get all that low compared to the northern parts of Tanzania. Generally, the cold isn't terribly bad as many people survive it. Additionally, it's the dry season and animals can easily be spotted without driving much distances in search for them so I suggest you go ahead with your plans. I did a safari with Time Warner Safaris (Tanzania) and they were amazing. Their services were all excellent including their very knowledgeable driver guide. I highly recommend them to organize everything for you. Get in touch with them on and they will be of great help in arranging everything... All the best. |

Filgga, all, I'd label that an enormous exaggeration. At the coast, the temperatures still remain near 30°C (86°F) through day and night. In Nairobi, there are still sunny days with temperatures getting close to that. Only in the morning the temperatures in Maasai Mara or Nairobi (i.e. at altitudes above 5,000 ft) occasionally get as low as 12°C (53°F), but after 8 am temperatures rise quickly. It doesn't get cooler than that. No ice on the lakes. (:-) In short, you need one warm jacket or sweater for the cool mornings, otherwise you only need the same normal summer clothes you wear in central Europe or north America.
