TOP 10 REASONS TO VISIT TANZANIA

Tim Henshall / July 2024

1. Great Migration in Serengeti

Arguably the world's most spectacular wildlife experience - and often described as "the greatest show on earth". With around 1.5 million wildebeest and zebras cross the plains of the Serengeti in search of fresh grass while braving predators and perilous river crossings. 

 

But know that there is a 'calving season', 'green season' and 'crossings season' all making up the 12-month cycle, with amazing sights to be experienced throughout.

2. Mount Kilimanjaro

Africa's highest and one of its most beautiful mountains, the iconic Kilimanjaro has taken the breath away of my visitors - whether that be to climb to her summit (as c75,000 do each year), walk amongst the surrounding environments with rich volvanic soils or simply glance at her majestic peaks

Ngorongoro Crater

A jewel in Tanzania's crown is the Ngorongoro Crater, the world's largest intact volcanic caldera and haven to a wondrous array of animal life which makes the crater a "must do" on any visit to Tanzania.

 

The backdrop of the crater walls makes for some stunning photographic opportunities as you see the animals wander through the grasslands on the crater floor towards the lake

Located in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area which spans across vast expanses of highland plains, savanna woodlands and forests, the Ngorongoro Crater is the world’s largest caldera and is a must-visit destination if you are ever in Tanzania. The Ngorongoro Crater approximately 16 to 19 kilometres (10 to 12 miles) in diameter and the crater’s steep forested walls act like a natural enclosure.

 

The crater was formed millions of years ago, resulting in a caldera that is now home to a totally unique, self-contained ecosystem. It is home to some 25,000 large mammals including thousands of wildebeest, zebra, eland and buffalo and over 500 species of bird. The crater also contains one of the world’s highest densities of lions which thrive on the abundant prey, making it a popular safari destination in Tanzania.

This document has been created to start dialogue. It contains a host of information, news snippets and ideas, to sow the seeds of ideas.

Is all the information you will need contained within these pages?

Far from it. But hopefully there is enough to encourage us both to embark upon a journey of discovery to find out more.

 

Tanzania is a much talked about, much written about destination.

Not only do we feel we are able to shine new light through old windows, encouraging a re-assessment of existing perceptions, but we also feel there are many, many more stories to be told.
