Known all over the world for its exceptional wildlife viewing opportunities, Tanzania piques the most adventurous spirits. It is the ultimate mecca for safari lovers where enduring natural treasures are celebrated. From vast savannahs dotted with acacia trees to soaring red-hued rocky mountains, Tanzania has everything you expect to see during a safari and more! Whether you are a wildlife lover or thrill-seeker, there is always something to arouse your senses.
From the lion, the mighty king of the African savannah, to the gentle herbivore elephants roaming in the open fields, everything you see in Tanzania is straight out of the Animal Planet but live. Of course, the obvious choice for most travellers would be Tanzania’s big cats of Serengeti National Park. In addition to offering a front-row seat to the Great Annual Migration, which is the centerpiece of an African safari, all-inclusive Tanzania Safaris tours also include the Big Five and the spectacular birds.
Tanzania is also home to Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Serengeti National Park and Selous Game Reserve, etc. The landscapes you get to explore during Tanzania safari talks words! Above the rolling hills, you will see the scarred landscape of Serengeti, reminding everyone of the time when the land was dry with rocky outcrops. On the other side, the spectacular views of the Ngorongoro Crater rekindle tales from the past where volcanic forces not only catapulted some areas but also created a haven for wildlife.
There is much more to Tanzania than just endless vistas of savannas and big predators grazing in the distance. The country is blessed with mesmerizing blue beaches and tranquil islands like Tarangire National Park, Mikumi National Park, Selous Game Reserve, etc. Offering the perfect beach getaway away from the hustle and bustle of back home, Tanzania’s coastal land is where you should head for the ultimate beach holiday in East Africa.
Is Tanzania The Best Safari Country in Africa
For avid safarists, Tanzania is the ultimate gamehaven. It is also one of the best safari countries in Africa because wildlife migration and predator action in Tanzania has no match. Needless to say, it’s a predator paradise of the whole Africa. Among all attractions, the Great Migration in Tanzania is the centerpiece of any remarkable safari where more than two million wildebeest and zebra begin their journey, and the end is uncertain.
During the Tanzanian safari, you amalgamate two popular paths, i.e. the Southern and Western Corridor, offering various holiday opportunities. On the other hand, the frequently visited Northern Serengeti is not that different from the southern region, but if you are looking for a little wilderness alone, you should head offbeat to the Western Corridor.
There is still more to see besides the Great Migration in Tanzania – the Chimpanzee trek in the Mahale, cloudy villages in the Usambara and gentle giants congregating at the lush Lake Manyara National Park. Almost all regions in Tanzania require either light or heavy walking, depending on where your safari vehicle stops.
