Twenty-two national parks. Two million wildebeest. Africa's highest peak and its deepest lake. Sixty coastal islands. One of the most biodiverse wildernesses on earth. This Tanzania travel guide shows you where to begin.
The endless plains. The Great Migration. Big cat country. Tanzania's most iconic park and the reason most travellers first come to East Africa.
Learn about Serengeti →
A collapsed volcano holding the highest density of wildlife in Africa. Rhino, lion, elephant, hippo — all visible on a single game drive.
Learn about Ngorongoro Crater →
Ancient baobabs and enormous elephant herds — up to 300 animals in a single group during dry season. Tanzania's secret dry-season treasure.

Tanzania's southern wilderness. Vast, untouched, largely crowd-free. Walking safaris, river boating, the biggest lion populations in East Africa.
Learn about Ruaha & Nyerere →
Stone Town's labyrinth of alleys, turquoise water, diving at Mnemba Atoll, clove plantations on Pemba, whale sharks off Mafia Island.
Learn about Zanzibar Archipelago →
Africa's highest peak. Five climate zones from rainforest to arctic. Six established routes, from popular Machame to the demanding Northern Circuit.
Learn about Kilimanjaro →The classic introduction to Tanzania. Big parks, big wildlife, biggest crowds. The Great Migration passes through between July and October.
The road less travelled. Larger parks, fewer tourists, walking safaris and boat drives. For travellers who have done a classic safari before.
Remote and specialist. Chimpanzee tracking in Mahale, enormous elephant herds in Katavi. Fly-in only. For connoisseurs.
Standalone or the perfect close to any safari. Beach, culture, diving, dhow sailing. Extendable to neighbouring Kenya and Mozambique.
