Tanzania African paradise
Tanzania is an East African country renowned for its vast wilderness areas.
These include the plains of Serengeti National Park, a safari inhabited by the “Big five” (elephant, lion, leopard, buffalo, rhino) and Kilimanjaro National Park, home to Africa’s tallest mountain. Offshore are the tropical islands of Zanzibar, with Arab influences, and Mafia, with a marine park welcoming whale sharks and coral reefs.
A true safari destination, rich in adventures and emotions, Tanzania is also and above all a paradise for African wildlife. Between its landscapes of plains and savannah, lovers of wild animals will inevitably be seduced by the national parks of Tanzania.
In the north as in the south, each park is unique and teems with animals in the heart of an exuberant nature. Tanzania will amaze you with the face-to-face meetings you will experience with the great kings of the savannah in the heart of animal sanctuaries (such as the Serengeti or the Ngorongoro Crater in the north and the Selous reserve in the south) as well as with the encounters with so many local ethnic groups, including one of the most legendary, the Maasai.
Not to mention the Zanzibar archipelago, off the coast of Tanzania, which is the idyllic place after your days on safaris and to end your stay in style.
With its tropical climate all year round, Tanzania remains a destination where it is possible to travel much of the year. There are two distinct seasons: a dry season which extends from June to October then from December to February and a wet season with “a great rainy season” which extends from mid-March to mid-May then a “more small rainy season ”from November to mid-December.
The dry period from June to September is the best time to discover Tanzania because the weather is dry, sunny and the temperatures a little cooler. You will then be able to observe the animals which then seek water points in the four corners of the parks. But it is during the rainy season that you are most likely to see zebras and wildebeest migrating.
Tanzania is one of Africa’s premier safari destinations.
Travelers looking for safaris will undoubtedly be won over and wowed by Tanzania’s national parks where exceptionally rich large wildlife can be observed.
From north to south, Tanzania has several national parks where you will experience unforgettable moments of safaris with unique face-to-face meetings in the heart of breathtaking natural landscapes, aboard open 4X4 vehicles driven by driver guides, experts and enthusiasts of wildlife.
Tanzania is also a favorite destination for hiking trails including the famous ascent of Mount Kilimanjaro, known as “the Roof of Africa”.
Between safaris, hiking and trekking, and meetings with local ethnic groups, Tanzania also offers real moments of relaxation in the heart of the Zanzibar archipelago with its coasts of white sand beaches, its coral reefs in the islands of Mafia, Chumbe or Pemba, so suitable for diving or a cultural immersion in the old town of Stone Town on the main island of Zanzibar.
Tanzania remains a top-of-the-range destination where the cost of travel is still high but where a real change of scenery takes on its full meaning.
In this time of a global pandemic, some of you will prefer the discovery of nature, majestic animals and exceptional landscapes rather than the crowds of the usual seaside resorts.
