Tanzania

Tanzania is a pristine country, populated with some of Africa’s finest animals. The diverse landscapes range from breathtaking mountains, to beautiful beaches of white sand, to vast open plains. Here, you can witness some of the world’s most impressive natural wonder’s, such as The Great Migration.

​

Highlights​

  • Embark on an authentic African safari at the Ngorongoro Crater for an unforgettable experience. This site is the largest intact volcanic caldera in the world, and home to many mammals, such as cats, elephants, and rhinos.

  • Visit Ruaha National Park, one of the country’s largest national parks. As this reserve is more remote and less visited, you can enjoy a personal safari to witness amazing animals such as elephants, big cats, and African wild dog packs.

  • Take an adventurous hike up Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's highest peak! There are various tours, ranging from a nine-hour intense trek to a seven-day relaxed pace camping experience.

  • Board a boat for a tour like no other down the Rufiji River and see hippos, crocodiles, and over 400 bird species.

  • Enjoy boating, canoeing, diving, snorkeling, or fishing along the remarkable Lake Tanganyika; the longest fresh water lake in the world. Behind its beaches are forests and mountains, which are home to a large population of chimpanzees, birds, and butterflies.

  • Visit the island of Zanzibar, known for beautiful beaches, native spices, and exotic smells. Here, you can relax and soak in the sea, visit a spice farm, or explore Stone Town – Zanzibar’s main city.

  • Visit Serengeti National Park, most famously known for The Great Migration; when more than one million wildebeest and hundreds of thousands of zebra migrate to and from Maasai Mara in Kenya. The open land is unbelievably vast and home to many African animals year-round, such as giraffes, lions, elephants, and cheetahs.
