Tanzania offers great diversity: from the snow-capped Kilimanjaro to the white sandy beaches of Zanzibar from the open plains of the Serengeti to the forests of the Mahale Mountains. As a result, safaris in Tanzania are amongst the most celebrated in the world.

Arguably the most magnificent park in Africa, the Serengeti has vast landscapes and prolific amounts of game. Famed for the annual migration, the Serengeti is a must for any first time visitor to Tanzania. The Ngorongoro Crater meanwhile is a true Garden of Eden, with highland forest covering the sheer sides of the caldera, a spectacular barrier encircling the plains wildlife that roams the flat crater floor making it ideal viewing ground for a superb Tanzania safari.

The best time to travel to Tanzania is between December and March and July and October.
