TANZANIA AND ZANZIBAR
The name Tanzania conjures up images of wildebeest stampeding across vast savannahs, forests teeming with primates and birdlife, and great plains brimming with legions of game.
All of these natural wonders and more are on offer in this exceptionally diverse African nation. Visitors typically visit Tanzania to experience at least one of the four well known Tanzanian tourist experiences: a safari adventure in some of Africa’s most impressive game reserves, a relaxing island beach vacation on picturesque Zanzibar, a day spent viewing wildlife on the floor of the Ngorongoro Crater, or a memorable mountain trek on iconic Mount Kilimanjaro.
Other parks include the Ngorongoro Crater, an ancient caldera full of animals, Tarangire, well known for its large elephant population and magnificent baobab trees, Nyerere (Selous), and Ruaha for truly wild experiences, and Mahale, for encounters with habituated chimpanzees. Visitors coming to Tanzania for their dream safari are never disappointed.
But Tanzania is not just a wildlife destination. There is also Mt. Kilimanjaro – Africa’s highest mountain, and the beautiful, exotic island of Zanzibar, with its turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean as well as Stone Town’s fascinating culture and history.
