Tanzania and Zanzibar offer a one-of-a-kind experience. The Zanzibar archipelago, which comprises fifty tropical islands 35km from Tanzania, allows visitors to enjoy an authentic mainland safari and a relaxing beach retreat. September is an ideal month to visit the Tanzanian coast, as the temperatures are perfect, and the humidity and rainfall are low.

The two largest islands in the archipelago, Zanzibar and Pemba, have beautiful beachside accommodation where you can fall asleep to the sound of waves crashing on the shore. During the day, you can enjoy the lovely weather and relax on the beach, take a spice tour, go snorkelling and scuba diving in the coral gardens of multiple marine parks, or explore the ancient streets of Stone Town, influenced by Arabic and Portuguese architecture.

Booking a beach retreat in September will allow you to savour exceptional hospitality, delicious food, and unforgettable experiences that will stay with you forever.

Is September a good time to climb Kilimanjaro?

Thanks to consistently dry weather, September is one of the best months to trek Mount Kilimanjaro, Mount Meru and the Shira Plateau – a one-day hike to Kilimanjaro’s oldest and shortest peak, Shira Peak.

Mount Kilimanjaro is a popular trek, and one of the main appeals is the ability to reach the summit of Africa’s tallest mountain without previous mountaineering experience. All you need is good physical fitness and willpower to reach the top. Additionally, being the world’s tallest freestanding mountain, it’s a stunning trek as climbers are rewarded with sweeping, unobstructed views of Kenya and Tanzania.

If you book with Tanzania Safari Soles Tours, you can choose from four routes that take six to eight days on either a private or group trek. By trusting us, you will join one of our mountain teams, who will guide you safely to the top and back down again. With years of experience on the mountain, you’ll be in safe hands.
