Tanzania Travel Tips

The Serengeti. Zanzibar. Mount Kilimanjaro. The names sound exotic. The destinations are even more so. This is Tanzania – an epic land of snow-capped peaks, powdery beaches and immense savannah giving birth to the largest animal migration on the planet.

Here you’ll find the world’s highest free-standing mountain and its largest extinct volcanic caldera – a richly forested habitat filled with lions, cheetahs, tusker elephants, and even pink flamingoes.

Tanzania is blessed with spectacular natural landscapes supporting a universe of wildlife all expressed in a series of vibrant national parks. Close to fifty percent of the country is devoted to conservation, so you can easily travel between these vast green spaces, enjoying one safari experience after another.As unforgettable as the land and its stirring populations of wildlife are, so too is the coastal experience of Tanzania’s beaches and offshore islands. For eons, this region was the trading hub between Africa, the Middle East, and Asia – a swirl of cultures that is still seen today in architecture, cuisine and traditional sailing dhows plying the Indian Ocean coast.

A visit to the spice island of Zanzibar is a journey through time with its historic Stone Town, spice farms, and crystalline beaches, all alive with a wash of regional cultures.

But perhaps just as alluring as its natural wonders, Tanzania enchants visitors with the gracious hospitality of its welcoming people. Whether in the cities chatting at a market or joining a ceremonial dance at a local village, the opportunities to meet the Tanzanians themselves are limitless.

Perhaps you’ll share a meal with the locals in Dar es Salem or sing with the Maasai people at their traditional boma. Your time in Tanzania will be measured by the depth and quality of these priceless moments, maybe as much as your time with its amazing wildlife.
