April is not the best month to visit Tanzania. The weather in Tabora, Kilimandjaro, Dar Es Salaam, Mbeya and Dodoma is ok but correct. The sun is not there all the time and you may be faced the rain often. Nonetheless, if you don't plan a beach and relaxation trip but rather city tours or walking, this climate could be appropriate. In addition, there are surely fewer tourists at this time.
It's even worse in Zanzibar and surrounding area where the climate is even worse. It is not advisable to travel to this area in april.
