Tanzania

Tanzania is an amazing and evocative country. Within it's borders are some of Africa's most iconic landmarks:

Kilimanjaro - Africa's highest mountain and the highest "walkable" mountain in the world.

Serengeti
- Africa's most famous National Park and witness to the annual wildebeest migration.

Ngorongoro Crater - World's largest intact volcanic caldera, greatest wildlife "showpiece".

Zanzibar - Stunning tropical beaches, exhilarating diving, steeped in history and rich in culture. 

These may be the best known but they sit alongside an array of other alluring destinations which are as rewarding and exciting in their own unique way.

Tarangire & Lake Manyara  - Lesser known northern parks with an abundance of game and very varied bird-life.

Mahale &
Katavi  - Remote and stunning beautiful western region combining the finest big game viewing with chimp trekking.

Selous
 & Ruaha - Southern parks with wonderful game viewing through a mix of land, river and walking safaris.

Pemba &
Mafia Islands  - Undisturbed and laid back islands with idyllic atmosphere and unique character. 

Regardless of it's many highlights Tanzania is still a fairly low key destination which, along with an excellent tourism infrastructure and wildlife conservation programmes, make it a truly superb destination however often you visit.
