About Tanzania
Tanzania is the jewel of East African safari and one of the continent's most compelling destinations. The Serengeti National Park is home to the largest mammal migration on earth, while the Ngorongoro Crater shelters the world's highest density of large mammals in a breathtaking volcanic caldera. Mount Kilimanjaro β Africa's highest peak at 5,895 metres β draws trekkers from around the world. The Zanzibar Archipelago offers a perfect counterpoint to the mainland's wildlife drama: historic Stone Town, turquoise lagoons, pristine coral reefs and beaches of extraordinary beauty. Tanzania's Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara and Selous Game Reserve add further layers to an unrivalled safari portfolio.
