The middle and end of the Dry season, from late June to October, is the best time for wildlife viewing in Tarangire National Park. Most of the animals migrate out of the park during the Wet season, and wildlife viewing is considerably less good. However, in recent years more elephants appear to be staying inside the park throughout the Wet season, possibly because of their knowledge of the increase in poaching outside.

June to October –Dry Season
- Animals migrate into the park from surrounding areas
- Wildlife is easier to spot because vegetation thins out and animals gather around rivers and waterholes
- The weather is beautiful and sunny
- There are fewer mosquitos and malaria risks are lower
- The abundance of animals in the beginning or end of the Dry season can vary greatly and is very dependent on the timing of the rains
- Warm clothing is essential from June to August since morning game drives are cold
