Masai warriors along the Ngorongoro - Serengeti road, Tanzania, February 1995

Tanzania Safari Collection

Situated in east Africa, Tanzania is a stunningly beautiful, albeit poor country. Home to Africa's highest mountain, Kilimanjaro, and the world famous Serengeti, Tanzania provides the wildlife enthusiast with vast areas of true wilderness.

One of the main reasons to visit Tanzania is to witness the ungulate (wildebeest) migration which makes its way south and west through the Serengeti in the early part of each year (January through March). Click here to learn more about the wildebeest migration. During the long dry season, June through October, the county's northern parks are fantastic.

The Ngorongoro Crater, a microcosm of Africa and it's wildlife (including all of the Big 5), is not to be missed. For those seeking a true escape the southern part of Tanzania has been set aside as the world's largest wildlife reserve. The Selous Reserve is remote Africa at its best.

Tanzania is a great safari destination!
