Geography:
National Parks and National Game Reserves occupy almost half of Tanzania’s land area. With such world-renown destinations around, adventures can be easily planned to fit your schedule.
You may have been inspired by a safari documentary, but nothing can take the place of actually being immersed in this Tanzanian wilderness. You will be utterly speechless as you become part of your African surroundings and the endless expanses of Savannah. As you spot your first leopard lounging on a sausage tree or see a family of elephants walking leisurely past your vehicle, you’ll know you are in the company of nature's wild side.
Tanzania is home to Mount Kilimanjaro and Serengeti National Park:
Serengeti National Park
One of the most iconic parks in Tanzania is the Serengeti National Park. Serengeti is approximately ten times larger than Kenya’s Masai Mara Game Reserve. This park offers a opportunity to get off the beaten path and witness marvels such as the annual herbivore migration, which includes nearly two million wildebeest and thousands of antelope and zebras.
Mount Kilimanjaro
At 5,895 meters (19,341 feet), Mount Kilimanjaro is not only the highest point in Africa, but the highest free-standing mountain in the world, meaning the mountain is not part of any contiguous range. While climbing this incredible wonder you will experience five unique climate zones: Rain Forest, Heather, Moorlands, Alpine Desert and Arctic Summit. Tanzania offers a variety of routes to climb this incredible mountain giving you choices on the number of days for your trek.
