Northern Tanzania

From the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro to the shores of Lake Victoria, northern Tanzania is packed with excitement.  Only in this magical land can you be following the movements of the great migration one day, viewing the cradle of mankind the next and descending into an ancient volcano the day after.

Arusha is the staging point for most of the safaris we provide in northern Tanzania. Most of our trips from Arusha travel through the Rift Valley and Maasai Steppe so safari travellers are quickly immersed into the life of Africa, with small  thatched huts and herdsmen tending their cattle. Not long after, safari participants are looking out for the big five as they begin game viewing.

Southern and Western Tanzania

The extensive diversity of Tanzania is exemplified by the wilderness areas found in southern and western Tanzania. From the awe inspiring herds of elephants found in the south to the antics of the chimpanzees found in the hills along Lake Tanganyika, safari travellers are impressed and delighted with their experience. Some areas are so remote, access is only possible by light aircraft.

The Swahili coast offers a slower paced experience with a focus on relaxation and immersion into the lifestyle and rich culture of the East African people combined with the rejuvenating powers of the crystal clear waters of the Indian Ocean.
