Tanzania - Land of Contrasts

From the endless plains of the Serengeti to the snowy peak of Mt Kilimanjaro, from the tropical spice island of Zanzibar to the bustling urban city of Dar es Salaam, from the fierce Maasai tribes in the north to the Hadzabe bushmen at Eyasi, Tanzania is made up of huge cultural and natural wealth – the holiday maker’s dream.

Over a quarter of the country of Tanzania is made up of national parks, and Tanzania is committed to the preservation and conservation of Africa’s wilderness and animals. The Ngorongoro Crater has been dubbed ‘the 8th Wonder of the World’.  The famous Serengeti is home to the annual wildebeest migration, Tarangire National Park is famed for its elephants, and you are likely to see tree-climbing lions if you visit Lake Manyara. 

Other lesser known national parks like the Saadani Game Reserve will guarantee you a rewarding, off-the-beaten-track experience. Tell Close Encounters about your ideal Tanzania safari and we can begin helping you with your ideas today.

If you’re an intrepid adventurer and want to go trekking in Tanzania, there are many options available to you.  From Mt. Kilimanjaro to Mt. Meru, to long treks through the Ngorongoro Crater area, the Usambaras, or up the active volcano of Ol Donyo Lengai, Tanzania offers you lots of challenges.

If you want to end your safari with a few days relaxing on the beach, why not spend some time on Zanzibar or Mafia Island?  Some of the best diving areas in the world can be experienced in these group of islands with palm-fringed beaches that are clean and tranquil.
