Tanzania
Tanzania's natural environment and geographical features have made it one of the best tourist destinations in Africa.
|
Being the biggest country in east Africa, Tanzania has heaps to offer her visitors, including 13 game reserves and national parks. Tanzania also forms part of the world's largest animal's movements, the great migration. Inland are the vast Serengeti National Park and the animal-packed Ngorongoro Conservation area, and |
| thousands of people every year fulfil their lifetime achievement of climbing to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro, which is the highest mountain in Africa. On the coast, Zanzibar is exotic, intriguing and steeped in the unique Swahili culture. |
The weather in Tanzania varies from humid to hot in the low lying areas such as Dar es Salaam, whilst places like Arusha can be hot during the day and cool at night. Tanzania is one of the countries that have wet and dry seasons instead of winter and summer.
| The Serengeti National Parks claim to fame is not only the annual migration of white bearded wildebeest and zebra, but also it is regarded as the best wildlife reserve in Africa due to its density of predators and prey. Ngorongoro Conservation Area consists of a large volcanic caldera, namely the Ngorongoro Crater. This |
|
| massive crater is home to over 250 000 large animals, making it an attraction not to be missed. |
|
With its picture perfect beaches, hustle and bustle of locals, local markets and a huge variety of spice, Zanzibar makes for the perfect tropical holiday destination. Whether you are looking for a cultural experience, relaxing experience or both, Zanzibar and its people can provide it. Spice tours, prison tours, |
| snorkelling, scuba diving and sipping cocktails are only a few of the many activities. |
Interesting Facts
Dar es Salaam, the current economic and political hub of the country, was also the old capital of Tanzania.
Climate Conditions
The climate is tropical and coastal areas are hot and humid, where the rainy season lasts from March to June. The central plateau is dry and arid, while the north western highlands are cool and temperate and the rainy season here lasts from November to December and February to May. Kilimanjaro has snow year round on its upper peaks. On all our tours, it's best to bring warm clothing - raincoat, warm hat, socks etc. - as across Africa wet/dry and hot/cool climatic periods change invariably.
