SAFARI
Tanzania continues to be one of East Africa's finest safari destinations. Here are just a few reasons to consider going on a safari to Tanzania:
• Tanzania is home to Mt Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest mountain and a thrilling adventure for those who climb it.
• Tanzania is bordered by Africa’s three largest lakes - Lake Malawi, Lake Tanganyika and Lake Victoria.
• Natural highlights abound throughout Tanzania, including Ngorongoro Crater, the largest intact caldera in the world; Olduvai Gorge, said to be the birthplace of mankind, and the 20 million-year-old Great Rift Valley.
• Perhaps Tanzania's biggest draw for safari travelers is the vast, game-filled Serengeti plains.
Viewing the annual Great Migration of millions of herbivores across the Serengeti plains and up into the Masai Mara is an amazing experience.
• More than 25 percent of Tanzania is dedicated to conservation areas, protecting over 20 percent of Africa’s large mammals and 35 species of antelope, including 1.5 million wildebeest.
• It is possible to view the Big 10 in Tanzania – elephant, buffalo, rhino, lion, leopard, cheetah, African wild dog, hippo, zebra and giraffe – plus chimpanzees on the shores of Lake Tanganyika.
• Tanzania boasts over 1,000 bird species, with Lake Manyara National Park alone being home to more than 400 bird species. It is a year round birding destination, but at the height of the winter months, some 160 species of migrants add to the endemic diversity.
• The people of Tanzania are courteous, sincere, friendly and hospitable, making visitors feel very welcome.
