Safaris in Tanzania
Our Tanzania safari holidays offer some of the planet’s most impressive natural spectacles, with a plethora of wildlife roaming the plains of the Serengeti and the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater. Tanzania is the envy of most safari countries, as you can visit this destination all year round. In this diverse African icon, you could be bouncing across wildlife-spotted savannahs one day and the next, picnicking in a volcanic crater or hiking Mount Kilimanjaro. While many come to witness million-strong wildebeest herds migrating across the Serengeti, the Tanzania safari offers supreme wildlife encounters all year round. You don’t have to try hard here to spot the Big Five, a cacophony of colourful birdlife or even rare species like African hunting dogs. Explore it all from luxury safari camps where you can take dawn hot air balloon rides, 4×4 game drives and walking safaris with Maasai naturalists.
Tanzania Safari Circuits
A vibrant and beautiful country with exceptional parks and reserves, Tanzania is blessed with the winning combination of unparalleled game viewing and dazzling tropical beaches. Because Tanzania is so vast (almost 1.5 times the size of Texas), it helps to divide the country’s major holiday destinations into four areas:
- Northern Safari Circuit – the most popular Tanzania safari route comprising the Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara, Tarangire and Kilimanjaro.
- Tanzania Coast and Islands – the country’s beaches, especially those on islands like Zanzibar, are breathtaking and very accessible.
- Southern Tanzania – includes the wonderfully wild and underrated Nyerere Park (previously Selous) and Ruaha, some of the best-kept Tanzania safari secrets.
- Western Tanzania – head to the far-flung corners of Katavi and Mahale for the ultimate off-the-beaten path of Tanzania safari.
Explore Tanzania with help from our Africa team, who can put together the perfect itinerary packed with dream safaris, luxurious lodges and heart-shaping cultural experiences.
