 Tanzania
Tanzania has the second highest mountain plateau in the world (relative to its surroundings), the second largest and second deepest lake in the world. It has the longest lake in the world and the biggest wildlife reserve in Africa. One third of its area consists of wildlife reserve, conservation areas or national parks. The maasais are reknowned for being colourful but in all there are 200 interesting tribes. Tanzania has relics of humanoids a million years old. In spite of all this Tanzania has yet to be discovered by mass tourism. The United Republic of Tanzania, with a population 35 million, is East Africa's largest country and lies just south of the equator on the Indian Ocean. With the introduction of the country’s new Master Plan, investment will be concentrated on developing the less crowded Southern Circuit, which includes Selous, one of six UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Tanzania. The other five are Mt. Kilimanjaro, Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti National Park, Zanzibar's Stone Town and Kilwa Kisiwani/Songo Mnara ruins in the Lindi region. Bagamoyo, the former centre of the slave route, is also being proposed for a World Heritage listing.
Animals and Nature
It is no exaggeration to say that Serengeti and Ngorongoro are two of the world’s best known monuments of wildlife and overwhelming nature. But Tanzania has yet more to offer: click here
Trekking
Kilimanjaro is the most popular trekking destination, but we can also offer trekking in less well-known areas.

 
Culture
This family lives on hills close to Lake Victoria. They are poor but happy and proud, and they are just as interested in meeting you as you are in meeting them. You will be able to learn from each other.

 
Fishing
The Indian Ocean along the coast of East Africa has a relatively large fish population. Not only is the area excellent for fishing adventures but it can also provide memorable nature experiences. Watch the king fishes as they hunt shrimps near the surface.
In Lake Victoria there are Nile perch weighing hundreds of kg! Just a matter of reeling them in? No, it’s not that easy!

 

Beaches
The Indian Ocean is just as inviting as it sounds. Zanzibar or Mafia – After one of our tours or safaris it is perfect to stay here for a couple of days and just relax. Many other exotic beaches also await you. And even though they seem like paradise they are quite secluded!

Rain is falling
The rainy season has started again. It is the Masika, "the ‘big rains’ which are arriving, i.e. some evenings there will be thunderstorms. The scents over the savanna are really something special.

A fight in Serengeti
Three female lions attacked a buffalo. A big buffalo bull came to the rescue and the victim could rise after the lions were hunted away.

Lake Victoria
