Great Migration Crossing the Mara River
The mass crossing of wildebeest and zebras usually takes place from July to October. This is when herds of animals looking for new grass reach the northern edge of the Serengeti and face the risks of the Mara River. Most years, the groups have more than 1.5 million animals, and about 300,000 zebras join them. This makes it the biggest and hardest migration of mammals in the world.
Grumeti River Migration Crossing
The Great Wildebeest Migration is one of the most amazing things that can happen in nature.

Tanzania Safaris From Zanzibar
Since more people are planning their beach vacations in Zanzibar online, there is a greater need for a Tanzania safari from Zanzibar Island. Because of this, we chose to offer our Tanzania tour from Zanzibar packages at the lowest prices possible. It is clear that Zanzibar is an island, and its white sand beaches are what it is best known for. The island has a wildlife area called the Jozani forest, which is famous for the red colobus monkeys that only live there. However, there aren’t many wildlife safaris on the island.
Tanzania Tented Camp Safari
If you want to stay somewhere during your African tour, you have a few choices. There are bigger safari hotels you can stay in, but a luxury tented camp is one of the most authentic ways to enjoy a safari. The beds are made of cloth and have all the comforts and features you’d expect from a hotel. Wildlife can be heard from your tent, which is the main draw. We think the best way to enjoy a safari is in a luxury tented camp, where you can hear lions roaring in the distance and see antelopes walking right outside your room.
Tanzania Day Trips
You can choose from many day trips and one-day treks in Tanzania. Our trips are for people who don’t have a lot of time but still want to experience real Tanzania. You can see a lot of wildlife in beautiful settings on day safaris to Arusha National Park and Tarangire National Park. Kilimanjaro National Park has a one-day walk to the Shira Plateau, which is Mount Kilimanjaro’s lowest point that you will never forget. You can learn how women’s groups make coffee and cheese to sell on culture tours. There are lots of different things to do on a half-day spice tour of an agritourism farm in Zanzibar.
Southern Circuit Safaris Tanzania
Most people who visit Tanzania for the second time go to the south. If time and money allow, the south can also be connected to the Serengeti in the north or to the west. From Dar es Salaam, you can start your trip in the south and visit parks and reserves on the southern route. North of Dar is Saadani National Park. Two hours to the west is Mikumi, a small park on both sides of the highway that winds down to Iringa and Mbeya and then to Zambia or northern Malawi. You can go on river trips on the Rufiji River in the Selous Game Reserve, which is south of Mikumi. You can also go on walking tours there.
Western Circuit Safaris Tanzania
You can see chimps and explore wild areas that aren’t often visited by tourists. The parks along Lake Tanganyika, which forms the western border between Tanzania and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), are part of the Western Circuit. People should go to the circuit because it is in a beautiful, remote natural area with a lot of room. Jane Goodall’s studies of the chimpanzees in Gombe Stream National Park and how they became used to living there made the park famous. Mahale Mountains National Park, which is further south and sits on the crystal-clear waters of Lake Tanganyika, is the best place to see chimpanzees in the wild.
Northern Circuit Safari Tanzania
Lake Victoria and Rubondo Island are in the west of the northern safari route. Mount Kilimanjaro is in the east. The Masai Mara and Amboseli parks are right across the border in Kenya, which is to the north. People think that Tarangire National Park is the most southernly tourist spot in this beautiful and varied game area. Safari travellers can easily reach many other famous parks and visitor spots in a relatively small area. These include the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Oldupai Gorge, Lake Natron, Ol Doinyo Lengai volcano, Mount Meru, Arusha National Park, and Lake Manyara.
Masai Mara Village Tour
The Maasai are the main ethnic group around the Masai Mara. They are arguably the most famous tribe in all of Africa and live in large parts of southern Kenya. This warrior-nomadic group used to control large parts of Kenya before it was colonised. They still follow many of their old customs and live in areas near Masai Mara that haven’t been touched by modern society. What are the benefits of going to a Maasai village? You can talk to the Maasai and learn about their culture and way of life during this hour-long walk to a Maasai village. You can also see some of their traditions and customs for yourself.

How much does a Tanzania safari cost?
“Tanzania Safaris tours are not geared toward big groups. The best way to see the Tanzania National Parks is on a bespoke Tanzania safari for two or four people who book together as a family or friends, though that obviously comes at a price. You should budget a starting price of US$500 per person per day, but it is difficult to put a specific figure on a trip, as a lot of variables need to be taken into account. For example, Tanzania camping safaris are generally cheaper than Tanzania lodge safaris. Conversely, the Serengeti and some other parks in the northern circuit have big hotels that are much cheaper than the small, exclusive lodges and tented camps – although the latter are often more basic. The season makes a big difference too. Discounted rates apply if you are willing to travel in the rainy season, while you’ll pay a premium to visit during the height of the wildebeest migration.”
| Moderate, usually scheduled Tanzania Safaris | Premier, Usually Private Safaris (All inclusive) Per Day/Person | Budget Tanzania Safari Price Per Day/Person (All-Inclusive) | |
| Low/Green Season (April to May) | $400 – $500 | $600 – $800 | $250 – $350 |

After a short time, you go on a morning game drive in a modified 4×4 with one of our tour guides. Always be on the lookout for any movement or flash of colour. It could be a leopard following you, a family of foraging mongooses, or a huge Ground Hornbill looking for a snake-sized meal. The thrill comes from not knowing what you might find.
When you go on one of our adventure camping trips, you will go deep into the national parks of Tanzania. You will drive on rough, exciting roads, go by small towns in the country, and see beautiful scenery and lots of wildlife. At night, you stay in cabins that are mostly open, either inside or just outside of national parks.
You’ll use all of your abilities. Seeing a chase and kill, falling asleep to the sound of an owl hooting, or waking up to the sound of hyenas laughing are just a few of the things that people have done. Being “right in the middle” of everything makes the trip experience even better. Being close to nature, especially at night when there are millions of stars and sounds of the night are playing together, is an experience that you will never forget.
You can let us take care of the chores while you rest and enjoy every sight and sound on an adventure camping safari. Canvas dome tents that are big enough for two people will be set up and taken down by our team. A bush cook will make tasty meals that will be served at tables and chairs under a tree for shade.
When planning your trip, choose a private safari so you can pick your own activities, times, and people to travel with. You could also go on a planned group trip with no more than seven other people to get a real safari experience for less money.
As a local company, we’re always trying to come up with new and interesting plans. With our teams, cars, and tools, you can be sure that you will have a unique and safe experience. Camping is a cheap way to enjoy East Africa’s wildlife, plants, and people.
Tanzania Family Safari
Now that they’ve seen the movie and heard the music, it’s time to take your kids on a Tanzania family tour to see the real thing.
Some of Africa’s most famous wildlife reserves are in Tanzania. The Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater are standard “Big 5” safari spots where you can be sure to see amazing animals (always a hit with kids!). Tanzania is also a great place for a family adventure and beach vacation because it has a long tropical coastline and Zanzibar has beaches and coral reefs.
It can be hard to go on adventure with kids. There are often age limits on game drives at lodges, and it can be hard to find things that will please everyone in the family. We’ve taken the stress out of planning your trip by putting together Tanzania family safaris that include not only amazing wildlife viewing but also fun things to do like mountain biking, camping in the Serengeti, playing football with the local kids and going to a school to share your ideas and make new friends.
We’ve carefully chosen safari lodges and tented camps that are great for families. These places have trained staff, lots of things to do, kid-friendly menus, and opportunities for sports and cultural exchange. Our Tanzania safaris fly you between these hotels and camps, which are all in beautiful places in Tanzania’s best reserves, so you don’t have to deal with long drives or cranky kids on rough roads.
Check out our selection of Tanzania family safaris and tours. If you don’t see exactly what you want, give one of our Africa Safari Experts a call, and they’ll make sure that everyone has a great time, from dad, who loves birds, to junior, who is crazy about lions.
What to wear on your Tanzania Safari
It’s not hard to figure out what to wear and what you need to bring on your trek in Tanzania. Most likely, you already have everything you need in your closet. On a Tanzania safari, our clothing ideas are the same for all seasons, but they are different if you are going to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro or to the famous beach in Zanzibar.
It is best to wear clothes that are casual, comfy, and easy to wash. Most cabins and camps will wash clothes for a small fee, so don’t bring too much. While on a safari, you don’t need to dress up. Plan to wear clothes so you can adapt to changes in temperature. Depending on the time of year, early morning game drives can be very cold, while daytime temperatures can get very warm. If you want to avoid getting tsetse flies, don’t wear dark blue or black clothes. Instead, wear neutral or green colours. Hats with wide brims, sunglasses, sunscreen, and bug spray are all must-haves. We suggest that you wear long pants, long-sleeved shirts, socks and bug spray after dark to keep mosquitoes from biting you.
Tanzania Safari Lodges & Camps
The best Tanzania safari hotels are all in beautiful places, like on a beautiful beach, in the middle of a remote savannah, on the edge of a crater, or in a forest by a lake. But that wasn’t enough to make the list of the best safari hotels in Africa. They offer thoughtful service, attention to detail, and the ultimate luxury of events that you will never forget.
Any trip in Tanzania is likely to take you to places you’ve only dreamed of seeing, and the best Tanzania safari lodges will not let you down. Like Kenya, Tanzania is like a world inside a country. With a short trip, you can go from the savannah to the beach or the beach to the savannah.
These suggestions were chosen because they are in some of the most beautiful places in Tanzania and because they offer great service. No matter if you’re on an island in a lake, an island in the ocean, or lost in a sea of grass, no detail is missed.
The best high-end safari hotels in Tanzania are close to airstrips that make it easy to get to places like the Selous or Ruaha in southern Tanzania that would be hard to get to otherwise. This will let you discover untouched forests, beaches, and grasslands, and it will also make your experiences very special.
Tanzania has a wide range of scenery, and its lodges are set in a variety of places, from rocky outcrops to sandy beaches. There is a lot of classic safari style in the form of fancy tented camps. On the other hand, farmhouses on coffee farms offer a more organised kind of beauty.
Tanzania doesn’t take its past very seriously, but the coastline still has a strong Swahili flavour, and the buildings along it are also very different.
Photographic Safari in Tanzania
Tanzania has to be one of the best places in the world for photographers. Tanzania is loving its new reputation as a very popular place to go for photography trips, thanks to its snow-capped mountain tops, “Big Five” safaris, and beautiful tropical islands.
There are so many famous places to take pictures in Tanzania. There are the plains of the Serengeti and the steep sides of Ngorongoro Crater. There are also the flamingos of Lake Manyara and the giant tuskers of Tarangire. There are also the beautiful islands of Zanzibar and Pemba, as well as the wild landscapes of Ruaha, Katavi, and Stiegler’s Gorge in the Selous. The Mahale Mountains, home to chimpanzees that have made the area their home, and Lake Tanganyika are two other unique places to take pictures. The country’s many mountains and volcanoes, including the famous Kilimanjaro and the active Ol Doinyo Lengai, make photographers salivate just thinking about going there.
Where is Tanzania
Tanzania is an African country in East Africa that is just south of the equator. It became a sovereign state in 1964 when Tanganyika and Zanzibar, which had been different states before, joined together. More than 99 percent of the total area of the regions is made up of mainland Tanganyika. Zanzibar and Pemba islands are run by a different government than Mafia Island, which is run from the continent. Dodoma is in the middle of the mainland and has been the legal capital of Tanzania since 1974. Dar es Salaam is the country’s biggest city and port.
Tanzania Birding Tours
Our birding tours in Tanzania include the best birding and wildlife viewing in East Africa. A lot of people who like being outside think of Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park when they hear the word “Tanzania.” That’s right. This really is one of the best places in Africa to see wildlife. You can find many beautiful bird species in the Serengeti and the nearby Maasai Mara in Kenya. You can also see leopards, cheetahs, lions, smaller cats like the Serval and Caracal, and all the other famous big animals that live in Africa. One of the strangest things you can do is watch birds while being around animals.
There’s also the great wildebeest (gnu) migration, of course. The Serengeti is where all of this amazing wildlife can be found. The great thing about the Serengeti is that it is home to many beautiful bird species. Fischer’s Lovebirds hunt for food on the ground, rest and talk to each other in acacia trees, or be seen flying low over grasslands. Excellent Starlings, Rosy-patched Bushshrikes, and many other brightly coloured East African birds can be found in large numbers. East African endemics like the Grey-crested Helmetshrike and the Red-throated Tit are harder to find and only live in a few spots in the park. The Serengeti and Kenya’s Maasai Mara, which is just across the border, have a lot more to offer than just big game.
Kilimanjaro Trekking Safaris
If you’ve already climbed Kilimanjaro, there’s no better place to go than on trek in Northern Tanzania. East Africa is famous for its landmarks and beautiful landscapes. What makes a Tanzanian tour so unique is its wildlife. The Serengeti has huge groups of wildebeest running across the plains. Ngorongoro Crater has beautiful views. Lake Manyara has tree-sleeping lions, and you can see all the animals from above in a balloon. If you have the time, you should definitely go on a tour in Tanzania.
All of Tanzania’s best safari spots are in the north. The Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara, and Tarangire national parks are all close enough to each other that they can be easily combined into one great safari at the end of a Kilimanjaro climb.
All of Climbing Kilimanjaro’s trips are made just for you. You can make up your own safari trip since you have your own 4×4 and guide. There will be no shared minibuses or having to work around someone else’s plans. Do it your way and treat yourself.
Car Rental in Tanzania
Overall, a car rental company is a business that lets people borrow cars for a short time so they can use them for their own personal travel. The main goal of car rental companies in Tanzania is to give tourists the chance to take cars for a variety of purposes, including different types of terrain, lengths of time, and prices. However, before visiting a car rental company, travellers should always do some research first. About what you need to do or how much it costs to get a customer to rent you their car.
You will need to show proof of who you are, a Visa, a passport, a driver’s licence, a credit card, and proof that you made a reservation or booking. All of these papers are looked at when you rent a car in Tanzania. Some agencies and companies may also ask for a protection deposit, especially if the space is to be used in town.
If a traveller wants to rent a car in Tanzania, they might have trouble getting in touch with service providers who have the car they want. Check prices first to make sure you’re getting a good deal. Also, if you’re a first-time traveller or an experienced one, you can rent a car for your trip. This is especially useful for country road trips and self-drive tours, which give you the freedom to explore the country at your own pace. Then renting a car in Tanzania is the best thing for you to do.
Zanzibar Tours And Holidays
You can’t go wrong with a trip to Zanzibar if you want to find a unique African island adventure. Tours to Zanzibar include relaxing stays on the beach, lots of fun things to do, and beautiful places to stay. This makes for a culturally rich but very relaxing holiday.
A lot of people choose a tour that includes the best beaches on the island as well as classic safari spots. It is truly the perfect way to end a safari in Kenya or Tanzania. When you get to Zanzibar, don’t forget to include one of our day tours of Spice Island in your plans to see its unique culture.
We offer a range of tours and vacations in Zanzibar, from romantic getaways and honeymoon rooms in small, quiet hotels to family-friendly vacations at big beach resorts and luxurious villas fit for a Zanzibari sultan!
