Africa is not short of amazing wildlife experiences; however, the great migration is one of the most spectacular and jaw-dropping occurrences one might be lucky enough to witness. Watching millions of wildebeest and zebra as far as the eye can see crossing the plains of the Serengeti with lions on the sideline or bounding through treacherous rivers with hungry crocodiles at the ready is simply a remarkable sight that should not be missed whilst visiting Tanzania.
The smiling, colorful Masaai tribes of Tanzania welcome you with open hands to learn about their way of life and customs. Their energetic dances while adorned in dazzling red cloth blankets ‘shukas’ & bright beads truly brings this beautiful country to life.
A jewel in Tanzania’s crown is the wonderous Ngorongoro Crater, the world’s biggest intact volcanic caldera with an incredible diversity & concentration of animals on the Crater flaw. it is a marvelous experience to drive down from the crater rim with your guide for the day for some top-class game-viewing and perhaps a little picnic in the Park before retreating back to Camp for the evening.
Whether you are in Kenya or Tanzania, the dazzling sight of Mount Kilimanjaro looming up in the clouds cannot be missed. Proudly Africa’s highest mountain, its beauty can be admired from afar, its foothills or taking part in the trek to the top for those more adventurous souls. Arusha is a lovely little town to enjoy panoramic views of the mountain from before taking off on your safari.
Tanzania can provide a massive diversity of activities and experiences. What I love most is that it is simple to extend a trip into Zanzibar for a little beach R&R post migration safari, the epitome of ‘Safari & Salt’. Or venture to one of Tanzania’s more remote Parks such as Selous (the largest game reserve in Africa) or Mahale for a close-encounter with chimpanzees.
