Explore The Best Time to Visit Tanzania With Our Travel Experts
Tumblr media
Planning a trip to Tanzania? And wondering what time of the year is the Best Time to Visit Tanzania? Tanzania is great to visit almost any time of the year.
But when is the Best Time of The Year to Visit Tanzania? Well, the answer depends on your interests and the experiences you seek. In this post, we’ll break it down month by month to help you plan the perfect Safari In Tanzania.
Tanzania is an all-year destination. However, from June to October (the dry season) is usually the best time to visit. This is because the foliage is less thick and it is easier to spot wildlife. The Great Wildebeest Migration is in Tanzania (Serengeti) for 8 months of the year, and usually, the best time to see it is in June – July. If you wish to see the calving season, January to early March is the best time to visit (Ndutu area).
Month By Month Guide To Travelling In Tanzania
June to October – Dry Season: These are the Best Month For Tanzania Safari to see the wildebeest migration
August to September is the best time to see the wildebeest river crossings in northern Serengeti. Animals are easier to spot since they concentrate around waterholes and rivers
January-February is the time to see the calving in the southern Serengeti, and an excellent time to see predator action
March to May is the peak of the Wet season. Wildlife viewing in Tarangire, Katavi, Selous, and Ruaha is better during the Dry season
Now that you know When the Best Time to Visit Tanzania is, it’s time to plan your dream safari or cultural adventure. If you’re passionate about preserving this stunning natural beauty for future generations and want to make a positive impact on the environment and local communities, consider booking your trip with Sumbi Extra Miles Safari.

The Best Time to Embark on an Unforgettable Tanzanian Adventure
Tumblr media
Tanzania, a land of diverse landscapes and abundant wildlife, offers a magical experience for travellers seeking a memorable African adventure. Choosing the Best Time To Visit Tanzania is crucial to ensure you witness its natural wonders at their finest. In this guide, we'll explore the different seasons in Tanzania and help you discover the Best Time Of Year To Safari In Tanzania to plan your safari or climb the majestic Mount Kilimanjaro.
1. Dry Season (May to October)
The dry season is considered the best time to visit Tanzania, offering favorable conditions for wildlife safaris and outdoor activities. From May to October, the weather is generally dry and cool, providing comfortable temperatures during the day and chilly nights. This season marks the Great Migration in Serengeti, as millions of wildebeest, zebras, and other herbivores move in search of water and fresh grazing lands, attracting predators in their wake. Witnessing this incredible spectacle is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
The dry season also presents an excellent time for mountain climbing, particularly for ascending Mount Kilimanjaro. The clear skies offer breathtaking views, and the dry trails make the trek safer and more manageable. It's essential to book accommodations and tours well in advance, as this period attracts a considerable number of tourists.
2. Wet Season (November to April)
The wet season in Tanzania, from November to April, is characterized by occasional heavy rains. While this season might not be the ideal time for safari adventures, it brings its own unique charm to the country. The landscapes transform into lush greenery, and many animals give birth during this time, leading to an abundance of young wildlife.
In the southern and western parts of Tanzania, such as the Selous Game Reserve and Katavi National Park, the wet season offers fantastic opportunities for birdwatching, as migratory birds arrive in large numbers. Additionally, this period sees fewer tourists, providing a more exclusive and tranquil experience.
However, it's essential to note that some roads might become impassable due to flooding, and certain remote areas might be inaccessible during heavy rains. Despite this, the wet season can still be a rewarding time to visit Tanzania if you're interested in birdlife and can tolerate occasional showers.
3. Shoulder Seasons (April to May and November)
The transitional months of April to May and November are considered the shoulder seasons, marking the periods between the wet and dry seasons. During these months, tourism is at its lowest, and accommodations often offer discounted rates. While there is a higher chance of rainfall during these periods, it can vary from year to year. Travellers who prefer quieter experiences and are willing to take a bit of a risk with the weather might find these months suitable for your best Tanzania Experience.
Conclusion
Choosing the Best Time To Visit Tanzania largely depends on your preferences and interests. If you seek the thrill of witnessing the Great Migration and exploring Tanzania's wildlife in its natural habitats, the dry season is ideal. On the other hand, the wet season offers its own unique rewards for travellers seeking a more exclusive experience. Whether you're a wildlife enthusiast or an adventurer set to conquer Mount Kilimanjaro, Tanzania Safari Holidays promises an unforgettable journey in every season.

it's kinda interesting to me that you never remember barbados. one of my friends is from barbados which makes it one of the more significant countries to me, so i'll never forget it in a world map or armericas map. yeah i just think it's interesting which 'obscure' countries some people always remember or forget
oh 100%. for me i always remember angola because a kid from there came to visit our class once. same with tanzania, one of my friends in primary school lived there for some years, so i could pick it out on a blind map every time.
there's a lot of 'obscure' countries a lot of people forget about because it's not relevant to them, but at the same time it means home to hundreds of thousands, and for many others it's "my best friend is from there :)" or "i visited on vacation and it was the best time in my life" or a hundred other small things. and idk man just thinking about it fills me with a sense of wonder. i ❤️ the world.

Crossover Universe - Gepardia Town Lore
I have to say it was a bit of a chore to describe the town/city, but I enjoyed it I confess. Although I feel like it's not quite perfect as always.
The important thing I have to say is that visuals are concepts, because I have no idea exactly what this town and coat of arms should look like yet. Should there be something missing or you've got some idea, feel free to tell me. 😊
Enjoy! (⌒_⌒;)
Concept Coat of arms:
Tumblr media
(made in Armoria by Azgaar)
About the town:
Population: around 4000, but the number is gradually increasing
Area: 20.43 km2 (square kilometres) | 7.89 sq mi
Highest Elevation: 131 m | 429.79 ft
Racial diversity: The most common races are humans and night elves, who make up nearly three-quarters of the city's population. In smaller numbers are trolls, dwarves, gnomes, orcs, taurens and several others.
History: A few residents from the capital, Ashte'quel, decided to leave and find a new home in the southeast as the city began to become overpopulated. A small group wandered through Wildebeest's Plains, struggling to survive. They were fleeing from lions, hyenas and occasionally theropod dinosaurs and finding water in the barren savannah was difficult.
One night a giant cheetah (Acinonyx pardinensis) came to their camp, and amazingly, unlike the other predators, it was friendly to the travelers and guided them to their new home. It helped them find water, food and safe places to camp.
The journey took 38 days, the exhausted travelers made their way through the Cheetah's Valley to the coast where was the best soil for growing crops and they settled there. But after that the cheetah disappeared and no one ever saw it again.
Travelers mourned over it and in its honour, the Czech artist František Burian named their new home Gepardia and built the statue of that giant cheetah that still stands in the town square today. Since then, in general, the cheetah has become the sacred animal not only of Gepardia, but also of the whole island.
About 380 years later, a queen of Havaykia named Inya Lunabloom proclaimed Gepardia as a town.
Architecture: The architecture is similar from the Middle East and Africa (mainly Morocco, Kenya, Ghana and Tanzania). Thanks to these types of buildings, residents are simply protected from the great summer heat. It's mixed between medieval and modern architecture.
Culture: The culture in Gepardia is diverse since many immigrants are living there. Most of the residents are huge nature enthusiasts and educate the public about conservation. Districts and quarters of the town are named after recently extinct animals from Earth. Festivals such as the Lunar Festival, which is mainly celebrated by night elves and taurens, and the Day of Freedom, which celebrates their liberation from the wars and cruelty of their former homes and worlds.
Cuisine: It is very diverse, but some of the favourites are Asian, Italian and Slovak cuisine. The most popular dish in town is the Slovak dish: Egg-coated bread in several ways.
Religion: It's diverse, but there are mostly atheists and believers who worship Mother Nature. The Night Elves believe that Thansuokria's moon is their goddess Elune from Azeroth, who is watching them. The bodies of the deceased are cremated to ashes, which are placed into urns and placed in underground cemeteries, which some incorrectly call catacombs. In late autumn, relatives of the deceased go to visit their urn. Havaykians believe that souls are indestructible and live forever in their own afterlife world and can travel through all universes freely.
Sport: Badminton and baseball are the town's most popular sports. The National Badminton Championships are organised every year. Gepardia's most famous baseball team is called the Swift Turtles, who have won the National Baseball Three-Week Tournament four times, which is played every three years in the late spring.
Transport: There are no cars in Havaykia, instead there are animals like horses, sabercats and dinosaurs that are suitable for traveling on land. They either are mounted or they pull carriages. In the town they walk on foot or take the train, which has tracks above the ground to avoid accidents. The seas are traveled by boats and ships (obviously). The newest added transport is the subway, which resides underground of the island and travels quickly and safely to distant towns and cities. There is no cost for transportation at all.
Criminality: Although Gepardia has the lowest crime rate on the island, there are still issues. Alcohol, cigarettes and similar drugs are very limited and gambling is strictly illegal in Gepardia. The guardians of the town are called Sentinels, who mostly solve problems like good cops without violence, but are still armed Kaldorei soldiers. Unfortunately since the Assassins and Templars got into Gepardia and the Sentinels were replaced by the Templar Knights, the crime rate has gradually increased as the two factions fight each other there. The prisoners are taken into the capital, where the prison is guarded by the Wardens.
Other informations:
The financial currency in Havaykia are cooper, silver and gold coins.
In general Havaykia and Gepardia strive to enable inhabitants to live a healthy and happy life.
Politicians and civilians are legally equal, and if a politician has extremist views at the polls, they are immediately voted out.
Healthcare is not paid, most doctors work for the passion of helping others, but of course they are paid by the government as long as they do an excellent job.
The maximum working time is 6 hours and 4 people per 24 hours. Taxes and insurance are paid only once a year and surprisingly it is not expensive. Wealthy residents have a so-called financial limit for example they can have a maximum of 100,000 golds and the extra is donated to poorer households and charities. This prevents unemployment and homelessness.
Ads don't exist at all in Havaykia because it's annoying for everyone.

Xerces Blue Butterfly Wood: Meadow park, which is named after an earth-extinct species of blue butterfly. Mostly it is a resting place for locals and tourists, but during the holidays there are festivals.
Nightjar Market District: Named after a small nocturnal bird that just happens to be common on the Earth, but some believe the district is actually named after a critically endangered (potentially extinct) species of nightjar called the Jamaican poorwill (Siphonorhis americana). This is a popular place to shop in the town, where farmers and traders sell their quality goods. There is also an assassin bureau where Altaïr and Malik work.
Thylacine District: Named after the extinct carnivorous marsupial. Although it is the smallest district of the town, the richest residents live there. The isolated building in the south of town was once an orphanage, which later moved into Giant Gecko Quarter. Badminton tournaments will be played in the southern part of the district.
Passenger Pigeon Park: A forest park where there are actually huge flocks of passenger pigeons and other species of pigeons and doves.
Gepardia Fortress: Home to the Mayor and their family who is protected by walls and Sentinels. That's where the lawsuits happen. It's the oldest building in the town.
Giant Gecko Quarter: A quarter named after the largest species of extinct gecko. There are kindergarten to high school, children's hospital and later orphanage.
Golden Toad District: The largest district and named for an extinct toad. There live most of the residents and hotels and pensions for tourists. There are the best restaurants, interesting monuments and a hospital. Naya and her father Mayur are living there.
Baiji Harbour: A harbour named after a possibly extinct freshwater dolphin. Ships transport resources into and from the capital, and tourists travel here. It was at this harbor that the Assassins stepped foot on Havaykia's land for the first time.
Gepardia Museum: It's built in front of the town square and contains the University of Natural Sciences and the administration.

Mayor Nythelar Evensky:
"This new town is not built for money, power or rulers! But it's only built for its people!"
Tumblr media
Nythelar Evensky was born in Falahnaar to a night elf mother and human father. Since childhood he was bullied by the other Kaldorei children since he is half elf and half human, but still he believed that he in one day change society for the better at least somewhere else.
In his early twenties, he moved to Gepardia, where he immediately fell in love with the place. Years later, as Gepardia was becoming a town, he campaigned for mayor. He promised a better future for the residents of the newly formed town, and he won the election as a result. After that he fulfilled all his promises and for that the people of Gepardia respected and loved him.
Only years later, Robert de Sablé and the Templars arrived in the town and warned the mayor of the assassins who planned to kill him and take over Gepardia, heading for a dictatorship. This made Nythelar paranoid and he had no choice but to allow the Templar's guards to patrol the town so that they could protect the civilians while the town Sentinels guarded him in the castle.
Yet he doesn't realize he made a mistake…

Three Incredible African Safari Destinations
Tumblr media
Africa is a famous vacation spot, with millions of tourists visiting the continent yearly to go on safari, a word in Swahili meaning trip. Visitors who go on safari have the opportunity to see a wide variety of wild animals in their natural habitat. Among the many safari destinations, Kenya, Tanzania, and South Africa are considered to be the best places to experience the beauty and splendor of the African wilderness.
For good reason, Kenya has long been regarded as the birthplace of the safari. It is home to the world-renowned Maasai Mara National Reserve, which gives tourists the chance to see the "Big Five" (elephant, buffalo, rhinoceros, lion, and leopard) and other wildlife including giraffes, hippos, and hyenas in one location. The Mara's diverse topography, from expansive savannahs to green riverine forests, provides the perfect backdrop for wildlife observation and photography.
The best time to go on safari in Kenya is during the dry season, which runs from July to October. This is when the spectacular Great Migration takes place, with over 1.5 million zebras, gazelles, and wildebeest moving from Tanzania's Serengeti National Park to Kenya's Maasai Mara in search of greener pasture. To reach the Maasai Mara during the Great Migration—which is recognized as one of the world's new wonders—the animals have to swim across the Mara River, which is packed with crocodiles, and sadly, many of them do not make it through the crossing. Predators such as lions, cheetahs, and leopards that lurk in the Maasai Mara still pose a threat to those animals that survive the Mara River crossing. Every year, thousands of visitors travel to Kenya and its neighbor Tanzania to witness the Great Migration.
Between July and October, travelers to Tanzania can also be a part of the Great Migration at the popular Serengeti National Park, which rivals Kenya's Maasai Mara in terms of natural beauty and wildlife. Tanzania is also home to the Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage that hosts thousands of wild animals, including a large population of lions, elephants, wildebeest, and rhinos, making it one of the most densely populated wildlife areas in the world.
Another must-see destination in Tanzania is Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's tallest peak. While not a traditional safari location, the iconic mountain adds to Tanzania's allure, offering opportunities for trekking and stunning panoramic views of the surrounding landscapes. Travelers interested in a more cultural experience can also interact with the Maasai people, a nomadic tribe living in Tanzania and Kenya who have rich traditions and a strong bond with the land and wildlife.
In South Africa, a well-liked safari attraction is Kruger National Park. This park is one of Africa's largest wildlife sanctuaries, spanning around 20,000 square kilometers. More than 500 bird species and 147 mammal species call it home, and many of the Big Five animals can also be spotted by visitors at Kruger National Park. The ideal time to go on safari at Kruger is also during South Africa's dry season, from April to October. At this time, animals congregate around waterholes and are easier to find because of the scant vegetation.
South Africa provides opportunities to visit wineries, seaside towns, and historical places like Nelson Mandela's jail cell at Robben Island, Cape Town, for people who want to mix a safari with other pursuits.

National Smile Day
Wear  your best smile to this party as we celebrate National Smile Day every  year on May 31. Founded by dentists Dr. Tim Stirneman and Jim Wojdyla of  Compassionate Dental Care in Lake in the Hills, Illinois, this day is  meant to, you guessed it, “Share with the world what the power of a  healthy smile can do!” The best part, this day heralds the beginning of  National Smile Month!
History of National Smile Day
The  history of the smile can be traced back to monkeys and apes, according  to primatologist Signe Preuschoft. These animals bare their teeth in a  facsimile of a smile to show dominance or warn off predators. The theory  is that humans copied this behavior and, over time, the smile evolved  to show amusement and enjoyment. Research indicates that on the way to  portraying happiness, smiles were a way of attracting mates among early  humans.
If you’ve ever wondered why older portraits often showed  unsmiling people, it was because people in that era had a lot of tooth  rot caused by sugar and a poor diet. Plus, more common was the  aristocratic perception that smiling and laughing was indecorous, and  showed a lack of self-control or good manners. One of the few exceptions  was Leonardo da Vinci’s “Mona Lisa,” although the portrait’s ambiguity  is part of its fame. As dentistry and an attitude of authenticity  developed, people began smiling even in portraits, this time with their  teeth on display.
Studies of yearbook photographs over the years  point to the breadth of smiles increasing over the years. The study  indicates that because participants had to hold the pose for longer  periods in the earlier days of photography, their smiles gradually  dimmed. The prevalence of smiling in the recent past is linked to  culture and traditions and varies from country to country. Some regions  with high individualism and low population density had a higher  incidence of people who smiled. A study found that the biggest reason  people smile, however, can be attributed to a country’s tradition of  diverse immigration over time. So places like Brazil and the United  States, where people do not share common customs or languages, see  higher incidences of smiles. The study states that this is because the  smile is part of a universal language.
A French neurologist,  Guillaume Duchenne, who studied the mechanism of facial expression,  discovered there are two types of smiles: a Duchenne smile and a  non-Duchenne smile. The former smiles with the eyes or is a genuine  smile, whereas the latter is an ambiguous, non-genuine, or simply polite  smile.
National Smile Day timeline
1700–1780s The French Now Smile with their Teeth
French portraits of people show smiles with teeth, which is a new occurrence.
1702 Rules of Decorum Still Frown on Smiles
French  priest and educational reformer Jean-Baptiste de La Salle publishes  “Rules of Christian Decorum and Civility,” which advises against smiling  and laughing, since they are ‘indecorous’ displays of emotion,  according to him.
18th Century Dentistry Emerges in France
This is a turning point in social practices.
1950s Smiles are Common in Portraits
It becomes the norm to smile in photographs.
1962 Laughter is Contagious
In  Tanzania, students at a school break out into fits of uncontrollable  laughter, which eventually spreads to their parents and their  acquaintances.
How To Celebrate National Smile Day
Smile!
Make someone else smile
Visit your dentist
The  best way to celebrate this day dedicated to smiling is to smile, of  course! Spread some good cheer around and grace another person with your  smile. We often don't realize that we wear a frown for most of the day.  Share a smile with someone just for a moment and see the difference it  makes in your everyday interactions.
Do  one thing to bring a smile to someone else’s face. Start small (tell  them a joke) or go big (volunteer at a children’s home). Whatever you  choose, cherish the feeling of being able to light up someone’s life,  and keep bringing smiles to everyone you meet.
Since  this day was created by dentists, delight yours by giving them a visit.  Go for a dental checkup to make sure your smile is in tip-top shape.
5 Fun Facts About Smiling
Smiling is less taxing than frowning
Babies are better at smiling than you are
Babies can fake it too!
We know when a smile is fake
Laughing for the heck of it
It takes more muscles to frown than it does to smile.
Babies smile about 400 times a day, while, on average, adults only smile about 20 times.
At  only nine or 10 months of age, babies have learned to offer fake smiles  to strangers, reserving real smiles and laughter for people they are  comfortable with.
Our  brains have evolved to such an extent that we can see a fake smile a  mile away — also, our brains automatically mimic the smile we see, which  means we give a fake smile for a fake smile.
A  study on why people laugh found that 80-90% of all laughter is in  response to simple statements like  “It was nice meeting you”, or “I’ll  see you later.”
Why We Love National Smile Day
Smiles hold power!
Smiles have health benefits too
A smile is the best accessory
Not  only do they automatically make you feel good (yes, even fake smiles!),  but they also create a temporary bond between the people sharing a  smile. Data shows that over time, smiles can increase productivity and  creativity in workers, and make people seem more competent and  trustworthy.
The  more we smile, the healthier our brains become. This is because smiles  make us happy, thus reducing stress. Smiles are also known to reduce our  blood pressure, heart rate, and pain. Smiling can increase endurance,  strengthen our immune system, and even help keep the cells in our body  healthy.
Smiling  shifts our mood, tipping it into the ‘happy’ side. A happy person is a  more confident person. Walking into a room with a smile is better than  wearing fancy brand-name clothes or shoes. There’s no downside to  smiling, not in the way it looks, nor the results it brings us.

A Serengeti balloon safari is a fantastic once in a lifetime experience, particularly suitable for a bird’s eye-view game viewing experience on your www.kim.tours wildlife tour in northern Tanzania. Hot air balloon rides leave from three sites in this prime national park. In Central Serengeti, wildlife gathers year-round in the Seronera River Valley where there is permanent water. The Great Migration passes through around May and June.
The plains of the Serengeti are particularly suited to balloon flights which are particularly convenient, letting you get aerially closer and distinctly accessible to the action than you could be by a game-viewing safari vehicle (read more www.kim.tours on when is the best time to visit Serengeti).
Conditions are favorable early every morning, but you are advised to pre-book this popular activity for your safari holiday to East Africa due its limited seating availability. Unfortunately, only children over seven year, old and fit and active adults can be accommodated. Because weight is a crucial safety consideration, passengers weighing over 120 kilos (265 pounds) may need to reserve two places.
The Western Serengeti includes the Grumeti River, scene of theatrical crossings during the Great Migration in June and July, when hundreds of thousands of gnu, brave the giant Nile crocodiles, and many perish while others detour to avoid the perilous river. In South Serengeti plains, the wildebeests assemble from December onwards, to calve in February, producing 8000 newborn every day on a three-week marathon, a sight not to be missed on your personalized nature travel in Serengeti.
The balloons are immense. Baskets are compartmented for comfort and security, accommodating 16 people for each one-hour voyage. The price reflects the enormous cost of the balloons due to a safety replacement every few hundred hours, equivalent to swapping with a high-end automobile.
🎈Are you ready for Africa Wildlife Experience, get in touch with us via DM and we will help plan this bucket list adventure.
Please just write as shortly your inquiry we will respond back to You as soon as possible. 📧 [email protected] | www.kim.tours | +255 768512626

Haven’t you dreamed of going on a safari in Africa? The African continent has inspired many travellers (including myself) to want to see wild animals on their own turf and to experience the cultural diversity Africa has to offer.
Let’s take a look at the best safari destination in Africa that you could choose from:

1. Maasai Mara National Reserve, Kenya
Maasai Mara is always at the top of the list of safari destinations when talking about the best safari destination in Africa. This premier national park offers everything you could want in a safari. It is a wildlife enthusiast’s dream come true. It’s also one of the best places to visit in Africa if you want to see the Big Five and is considered one of the best safari parks in Kenya.
2. Chobe National Park, Botswana
One of the best safari destinations in the world, Chobe National Park is Botswana’s first and most diverse national park sits in Africa. Commonly known as the “Land of the Giants,” this beautiful park is home to over 120,000 elephants, which is Africa’s largest elephant population. But, that’s not all; there are many other species you can see in their natural habitat too.
3. Kruger National Park, South Africa
To me, Kruger National Park is definitely one of the best safari destination in Africa as it is renowned for having the best safaris in South Africa with lush views and is also one of Africa’s largest game reserves.
4. Serengeti National Park, Tanzania
An African wildlife safari? It has to be the Serengeti. Well, at least for many of us! This is the place where you’ll find the most varied collection of wildlife on earth and one of the places where the great migration of over one million wildebeest and 200,000 zebras come south for the rain before heading northwest. This crown jewel is the ultimate safari destination and one of the best safari destinations in the world, without a doubt.
Best places for a safari in Asia
Apart from the gargantuan African continent, some other parts of our planet offer a range of unique flora and fauna. And Asia, being the largest continent, is definitely home to thousands of species of wildlife, on land and water! Speaking of, Asia hosts a number of National Parks and Reserves to ensure a natural habitat for animals, making it one of the best safari destinations in the world.

𝐁𝐀𝐒𝐈𝐂𝐒 …
                  𝐅𝐔𝐋𝐋 𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄:  aylin yilmaz                   𝐍𝐈𝐂𝐊𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄(𝐒):  ali ( friends and family only )                   𝐏𝐑𝐄𝐅𝐄𝐑𝐑𝐄𝐃 𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄(𝐒):  aylin                   𝐁𝐈𝐑𝐓𝐇 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄:  april 16th, 1992                   𝐀𝐆𝐄:  31 years old                   𝐆𝐄𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐑:  female                   𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐍𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐒:  she/her                   𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐈𝐂 𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍:  heteromantic                   𝐒𝐄𝐗𝐔𝐀𝐋 𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍:  heterosexual                   𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐋𝐃𝐑𝐄𝐍:  none
𝐁𝐈𝐎𝐆𝐑𝐀𝐏𝐇𝐘…
born april 16, 1992, aylins life from the time she was born was never going to be a normal one. with her dad in the army, it was to be assumed that she would never be in one place for long. at the time of her birth, her father had been deployed, with him not returning home until she was one year old.  by the time he did come home, the family had gotten orders to relocate to fort bragg. following the orders, the family moved down to fort bragg. for the first few years of her life, the family lived there. though when aylins mother got the call that her great grandmother had fallen ill, aylin, her mother and siblings moved back to nightrest while her father stayed at fort bragg.
on the weekends, her father did visit. growing up, she had come used to that. to her father not being around as much.  a year after moving back to nightrest, her great grandmother had passed away.  though she was young at the time, she knew how much her great grandmother had missed her great grandfather who had passed away a few years earlier. to her, it was clear she had passed on due to a broken heart. but she didn't voice that she believed that. instead, she let the adults believe what ever they had said. after her death, aylins mother kept them in nightrest. it was a talk her mother had with her father. and keeping them there was the best decision over all. it meant not moving as often. though despite that, aylin made sure to split her time between fort bragg and nightrest.
during the holidays, and summer vacation, she would spend it with her father on base. as she would spend her time there during breaks and the summer, she did end up making friends there too. it was during this time that aylin took a liking to animals. and helping them too. the summer before her senior year of high school. she found a stray puppy that she eventually took in. naming her kiara, she helped nurse her new puppy back to help with the guidance of the local vet near fort bragg.  returning home towards the end of summer, her mother was surprised with the fact that she had a dog. but in no time came to love her just as much.
following graduation, and spending the summer there, she packed her bags and headed off to cornell university in new york. for four years, she studied there before applying to the veterinary school of medicine there. getting accepted, she spent four more years there. during her years it veterinarian school. aside from going for surgery, she took up two specialties which was a rare thing. aquatic animal medicine and feline medicine. the summer before her final year, she spent it in Northern Tanzania at the Serengeti National Park there. it was there that she helped nurse back to health a lioness and her cubs. in the process, forming a bond with the mother lioness.  to say it hurt when she had to leave was an understatement. returning to new york, she finished her final year of school before graduating.
returning home, she moved back in with her mom before getting a job at the veterinarian clinic. it was also around this time that she learned her dad had changed to the massachusetts national guard. which meant he would be home more often.  two years after getting her job, the keys to the place were given to her, followed by the ownership of it. which surprised her. owning the place was a shock. never did she think she would become the owner of the place. but she had. and she would take it with pride.
flash forward to now,  from time to time, she does tend to go travel. mainly to africa to the same wildlife conservation she went to years ago. though now with the recent killings, leaving home has been put on hold. how could she even leave her family when all hell was starting to break loose?
OTHER FACTS…
     - she tends to like animals more mainly because a.) they don't talk back and b.) they don't start any drama with anyone.
-she's been in a few relationships over the years. one of them ended pretty bad while the others ended on a good note.
- after a few months of living with her parents, she eventually ended up getting her own place in low point. she has considered moving though but is picky on what kind of house she wants.
WANTED CONNECTIONS…  
     her person: a childhood friend of hers, this person knows her in and out. they’re also joined by the hip as well. and when all hell breaks loose, these two are always by each others side to help the other get through it. ( can be male or female)
           childhood friends: a group of friends she’s known since she was a kid. ones who will almost always get together once a week.
- first love/high school sweet heart: this was her first everything and the only guy she really ever loved. they broke up  whether they stayed in touch afterwards is up to the person who takes this up. and whether they're still close as well. they could still have feelings for each other too.

Best Kenya Safari: An Unforgettable African Adventure
If you're looking for the ultimate wildlife adventure, a Kenya Safari should be at the top of your list. Known for its stunning landscapes and incredible wildlife, Kenya is one of the most popular destinations for a safari in Africa. From the vast savannas of the Masai Mara to the stunning coastline, Kenya offers a diverse range of safari experiences that will leave you in awe.
Kenya’s national parks and reserves are home to the famous "Big Five" — lions, elephants, buffaloes, leopards, and rhinoceros — as well as hundreds of other species of animals, birds, and plant life. Whether you're an experienced safari-goer or a first-time adventurer, Kenya has something for everyone. Here’s a look at some of the best safari experiences and packages to consider when planning your Africa Safari Trip.
Masai Mara Safari Packages: A Must-See Wildlife Destination
The Masai Mara National Reserve is one of the most iconic safari destinations in the world. Located in the southwestern part of Kenya, it is famous for its vast open plains, stunning wildlife, and the annual wildebeest migration, which draws thousands of visitors every year.
The Masai Mara Safari experience offers a chance to witness thrilling wildlife encounters, including lion prides, herds of elephants, and the elusive cheetah. A safari in the Mara also provides an opportunity to explore the rich culture of the indigenous Masai people, who have coexisted with the land and its wildlife for generations.
When booking Masai Mara Safari packages, you can choose from a range of options, including luxury lodges, tented camps, or budget-friendly safaris. For an unforgettable experience, consider a hot air balloon safari, which allows you to see the Mara from the sky at sunrise, offering breathtaking views of the African plains.
African Safari Packages: Diverse Safari Experiences
An African safari is about more than just wildlife; it’s about the experience. Kenya is just one of many incredible safari destinations in Africa. Whether you're looking for a thrilling game drive, a cultural encounter, or a relaxing stay at a lodge, there are plenty of African safari packages to suit your interests.
Some of the best safari packages include a mix of Kenya tours and safaris, where you can visit various parks such as Amboseli National Park, famous for its elephant herds and views of Mount Kilimanjaro, or Tsavo National Park, known for its red elephants and diverse ecosystems. If you're interested in exploring other African countries, you can find safari packages that combine Kenya with Tanzania’s Serengeti or Uganda’s gorilla trekking experiences.
Most safari packages include expert guides who ensure that you not only see the wildlife but also learn about the history, ecology, and conservation efforts in the region. Whether it’s a luxury African safari or a more adventurous option, the variety of packages makes it easy to find the perfect match for your travel style.
Nairobi Safari: A Gateway to Africa’s Wildlife
Kenya’s bustling capital, Nairobi, is often the starting point for many safaris. Despite being a major city, Nairobi is surrounded by wildlife, making it a unique destination where you can enjoy both urban life and nature in one place. One of the most popular experiences is visiting the Nairobi National Park, a unique park located just a short drive from the city center, where you can spot lions, giraffes, and zebras with the city skyline as a backdrop.
If you're interested in learning more about animal conservation, a visit to the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust to see orphaned elephants being cared for is a must. Nairobi also offers easy access to other top safari destinations in Kenya, making it an ideal base for your journey.
Kenya Tours and Safaris: Tailor Your Perfect Adventure
One of the best things about booking a Kenya tour and safari is the flexibility it offers. You can customize your safari experience to match your interests, whether it's a private game drive, a walking safari, or even a beach holiday after your wildlife adventure.
With a range of Kenya safari tours available, you can choose to explore famous parks like Lake Nakuru National Park, known for its flamingos, or venture to the more remote Samburu National Reserve, home to unique wildlife such as the Grevy’s zebra and reticulated giraffe.
Safari in Africa: A Life-Changing Experience
A safari in Africa is unlike any other vacation. It’s a chance to get up close and personal with the world’s most incredible wildlife, explore breathtaking landscapes, and experience the thrill of discovery. Whether you’re on a Masai Mara Safari, an African Safari Package, or a Kenya Tour, every moment spent in the wild will leave a lasting impression.

 Best Time to Visit Tanzania: A Guide to Planning Your Dream Safari
Tanzania, with its diverse landscapes, abundant wildlife, and rich cultural heritage, is a dream destination for many travelers. But when is the best time to visit Tanzania to make the most of your trip? The answer depends on your priorities, whether it's wildlife viewing, beach relaxation, or cultural immersion.
Best Time for Wildlife Viewing
For those seeking the best wildlife viewing opportunities, the dry season, from June to October, is the ideal time to visit Tanzania. During this period, the vegetation is sparse, making it easier to spot animals. The Great Migration in the Serengeti National Park is a major highlight during this time, with millions of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles crossing the Mara River.
Best Time for Beach Holidays
If you're looking for a relaxing beach holiday, the rainy season, from November to April, offers a more affordable option. While there might be occasional showers, the beaches are still beautiful, and the crowds are smaller. Zanzibar, with its pristine beaches and turquoise waters, is a popular choice for beach lovers.
Best Time for Cultural Experiences
To immerse yourself in Tanzanian culture, consider visiting during the dry season or the shoulder seasons (May and November). This is when many festivals and celebrations take place, offering a glimpse into the local traditions and customs.
Other Factors to Consider
Budget: Prices tend to be higher during the peak tourist season (June to August).
Crowds: If you prefer fewer crowds, consider visiting during the shoulder seasons.
Weather: While the dry season is generally pleasant, temperatures can be high, especially in the northern parts of Tanzania.
Ready to Plan Your Tanzanian Adventure with PoaPoa Tours?

By carefully considering your travel goals and preferences, you can choose the best time to visit and make the most of your trip.

If you want to lie down on sun-kissed shores, seek out frenetic markets, or dive into unique mixes of African and Arabic influences, all the reasons to enjoy the travel to Zanzibar are here. This is the ultimate travel guide that will lead you along the steps to discover the magic of this unforgettable island.
Tumblr media
Get to Know Zanzibar Magical Charm
Spellbinding Beaches: The place has some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Imagine basking on Kendwa Beach with its soft white sand, snorkeling in Nungwi's blue waters, or kiteboarding on the waves off Paje Beach. Zanzibar, without a doubt, caters to every beach lover's dream.
Cultural Tapestry: The history of Zanzibar weaves together African, Arabic, Indian, and European influences that make for an interesting journey. Explore the UNESCO-listed Stone Town, its narrow lanes, and tall coral houses with markets everywhere. Be nourished by Swahili culture and get a glimpse of historical riches such as the Palace Museum and the Old Fort.
Spice Adventures: Zanzibar is a spice paradise. Visit the spice plantations to learn more about the centuries-long history of Zanzibar's spice culture, and let yourself be enchanted by the souls of clove, pepper, and cinnamon.
Diving Delights: Zanzibar coral reefs, alive with color and full of marine activity, offer a haven of water delight, indeed heaven for divers and snorkelers. Expect pristine coral gardens, playing dolphins, and floating sea turtles gliding through the clear turquoise waters.
More Than the Beaches: If you are looking for a holiday beyond the beaches, head inland to discover the lush interior of Zanzibar. Explore the Jozani Chwaka Bay National Park, a haven for the endangered colobus monkey and other unique wildlife. Spice up your trip by paying a visit to a local village where you can experience personalized hospitality from the people of Zanzibari.
Plan Your Perfect Zanzibar Escape
Travel essentials: Zanzibar has a tropical climate with warm temperatures all throughout the year, so you should pack light, breathable clothing and swimwear. Of course, do not forget sunscreen, hat, shades, and repellent. Do not forget to dress modestly because Zanzibar is a predominantly Muslim island, and such outfits are required if you decide to visit Stone Town or the local villages.
Visas and Money: Depending on the country you are from, you may need a visa to enter Tanzania. Learn which type of visa is required from your country prior to your trip. The local currency is the Tanzanian Shilling (TZS), although US Dollars and Euros are commonly accepted in tourist areas.
Best Time to Visit: Zanzibar's weather is friendly throughout the year, and the best time to enjoy sunshine and warmth is the dry season from June to October. However, the shoulder seasons between April and May and November and December can be good value for money and have fewer crowds.
Tasty Treats: The Zanzibari cuisine is as colorful as the island's multi-cultural people. Enjoy fresh seafood delicacies, enticing curries with locally used spices, and mouthwatering street foods such as mishkaki (kebabs) and mandazi (doughnuts)
Respectful Tourism: Be locally rooted in customs and traditions. Dress down when you visit the religious sites, and respect the lifestyle of the Zanzibari. Shop and dine in local markets and use locally-owned restaurants and tour operators.
Wait for your Zanzibar Adventure to start
Irrespective of whether you are a part of a Tanzania travel trip trying out new experiences on the mainland or seeking out the island paradise exclusively, the stunning beauty, rich history, and dynamic culture of Zanzibar promise to make your journey an enchanting discovery.
