Tanzania
About Tanzania
Explore the majesty of the great migration on the plains of the Serengeti or rise to the challenge and climb Mount Kilimanjaro. See huge bull elephant wander through the grasslands of the ancient Ngorongoro Crater and meet the red-cloaked Maasai warriors. Tanzania provides many of the bucket list experiences sought on an African holiday. After witnessing the wildlife, float away in the tropical waters surrounding the Zanzibar archipelago. Safari to sea, it’s a winning travel combination.
5 Reasons We Love Tanzania
Best place to see annual wildebeest migration
Serengeti ballooning – arguably the best in Africa
Excellent for solo travellers – mix with others for activities and meals
Best country to see chimps
Owner run camps – this not the norm any more

Conquer the Roof of Africa
Why not gather your hiking gear and set off to climb the highest mountain in Africa-the majestic Kilimanjaro? Not only will you enjoy fresh mountain air and breathtaking views, but you’ll also challenge yourself- mentally and physically.
Tick off a major bucket list goal and plan your climb now!
Safari Away From the Crowds
Get off the beaten path to explore Tanzania’s lesser-known reserves and national parks. Watch for herds of elephant, towers of giraffe, and dazzles of zebra on an intimate safari experience away from the crowds in Ruaha. Or embark on a river safari through Selous Game Reserve to spot bathing elephant, wading hippo and crocodiles basking in the sun.
Go Off the Beaten Track, on Foot
Admiring a pride of lion from the open rooftop of your safari vehicle is an exhilarating experience. Tracking them on foot, however will take your encounter to a whole new level.
Feel the wind in your hair, the red soil beneath your feet and the sun on your face as you enjoy a walking safari in the Serengeti. Not only will you become a participant with the wildlife rather than just a spectator, but you can wander off-road into areas inaccessible by car.
