Country guide

Tanzania

Tanzania is home to some of Africa's most celebrated wildlife areas. The Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater are among the continent's best places to see lions, elephants and the Great Migration. Tarangire is known for its baobabs and elephant herds, and Lake Manyara, Ruaha and Selous (Nyerere) add variety. Mount Kilimanjaro rises in the north, and the spice island of Zanzibar offers beach time at the end of a safari.
