Tanzania
Tanzania is one of the most diverse and beautiful countries in Africa. From the stunning Serengeti National Park, to the magnificent Ngorongoro Crater, Tanzania offers some of the most stunning wildlife viewing opportunities in the world. Home to the great migration of wildebeest, elephants, lions and other African wildlife, Tanzania offers an unforgettable safari experience. With its vast savannahs, lush mountain forests and diverse wildlife, Tanzania is an ideal destination for travelers looking for a classic safari adventure. Whether you are looking to spot the Big Five, take a walking safari, or just relax and take in the beautiful scenery, Tanzania has something for everyone.
When to go: Some might consider July to October to be the best time to visit Tanzania when the country is at its driest. This coincides with the migration river crossings. We also believe that you will have incredible experiences and wildlife sightings during the green season from March to May as well.
