Pick Tanzania 🇹🇿 if you're going in…

January, May, June, July, August, September, December

Climbing Kili in Jan–Feb has clearer summits and fewer crowds than the Jul–Sep peak.

Pick Vietnam 🇻🇳 if you're going in…

March, April, October, November

Don't try the whole country in monsoon swing months (Sep–Oct) — coastal weather is unreliable.

Months where both are equally good: February.
