Tanzania

Blissful Beaches, Wondrous Wildlife

Tanzania is the prime vantage point for viewing what’s known as the “Big Five”: elephants, lions, leopards, buffalo, and rhinoceros. It is also home to Kilimanjaro National Park and Africa’s highest mountain. As if that weren’t enough, Tanzania also prides itself on the sensational tropical islands of Zanzibar, blissful tourist experience and a prominent whale shark population. If you are looking to dip your toes in the local food scene, you’ll find yourself tasting the likes of rice, porridge, grilled meat, marinated beef, fish and bananas. Amazingly, over 130 languages are spoken in Tanzania, but English and Swahili are the official languages, accommodating to tourists who find themselves in this small but magical country. If you opt to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, you will not only delight in a physical challenge but be amongst some of the world’s most extraordinary mountaintops.

Serengeti National Park

Established in northern Tanzania, tourists are in for a treat when visiting Serengeti National Park, known for its massive migration of 1.5 million wildebeest and 250,000 zebra each year. Grab your popcorn and witness this magnificent display of wildlife in action.

Ngorongoro Crater

The focal point of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, the Ngorongoro Crater is a protected area and World Heritage Site. The crater is a large volcanic caldera and got its name for the cowbell-like it makes.

Zanzibar Archipelago

A unique overlap of Africa, Arabia, and the Indian Ocean, the Zanzibar Archipelago is nicknamed the “Spice Islands” for the fields of rice and clove plantations that dot the hillside. Prominent with idyllic beaches, fishing boats setting sail in the distance, and water activities aplenty, Zanzibar offers a rich and unique cultural experience.

Mount Kilimanjaro

Resting at an impressive 16,100 feet, Mount Kilimanjaro is a dormant volcano and the tallest in Africa, making it a prime destination for climbers worldwide. Two-thirds of the three main volcanic cones are extinct, while the third remains dormant and could erupt at any time. Of the many admirable features it boasts, Mount Kilimanjaro features lush rainforest, alpine meadows, and lunar landscapes.
