True Africa Presents
Tanzania is a captivating destination in East Africa, providing a year-round adventure filled with natural beauty and cultural richness. During the dry season, the weather is perfect for safaris and wildlife viewing, especially in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. The Serengeti National Park is world-famous for the Great Migration, where millions of wildebeest and zebras traverse the plains in search of greener pastures. Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest peak, attracts adventurers from around the world to trek its majestic slopes. Beyond its wilderness and mountains, Tanzania’s coastlines and islands, including Zanzibar, Pemba, and Mafia, offer beautiful beaches ideal for relaxation and water activities such as diving and snorkelling. For those seeking traditional living, Tanzania’s cultural diversity is equally impressive, with over 120 tribes contributing to the country’s rich heritage, traditional crafts, and lively markets. Whether you are trekking the iconic Kilimanjaro, witnessing the Great Migration, or unwinding on pristine beaches, Tanzania provides tailored experiences for every type of traveller. Â
Much like Kenya, its primary counterpart for safaris in East Africa, Tanzania represents a destination which can be visited at any time of year, although certain times of year are better than others depending on what one is looking to get out of their safari.
Game viewing conditions are typically at their best during the dry season, especially in the national parks in the south and west of the country. It’s always wise to consider the entire country when thinking about your safari, as the lesser renowned parks can be equally as impressive, yet much quieter and a fair bit more cost effective than Tanzania’s more well known safari areas.
Of course, with most of the iconic Great Migration taking place across the Serengeti’s sprawling plains and rugged kopjes, it’s the best destination in Africa to catch a glimpse of that amazing wildlife spectacle; the greatest natural show on earth.
Tanzania has so much more to offer though than the Great Migration and with an abundance of wildlife across the country, varied landscapes and a wide range of safari activities on offer, as well as moving cultural elements, Tanzania will leave you wowed at every turn regardless of the time of year you visit.
