TANZANIA

Serengeti National Park

The endless grasslands of the Serengeti are world renowned for not only the many wildebeest, zebra and gazelle who make their annual pilgrimage over its plains, but also for the big cats who are found here in plenty. Lion, leopard and cheetah all reside here in large numbers.

Ngorongoro Crater

Packed with game and wonderful opportunities for close up experiences with Black rhino, lion, hyena and elephant, Ngorongoro is always a highlight of any safari into northern Tanzania.

Selous Game Reserve

The largest expanse of protected land in Africa, Selous and the mighty Rufiji river offer marvellous wildlife viewing. A diversity of attractions, from Tiger fishing, to learning tracking skills on the Selous game trails will fill the visitor with awe for this vast Reserve.

Ruaha National Park

Regarded as one of the most exotic and remote safari destinations on the continent, Ruaha is a must for anyone wishing to get a feel for the real Africa. Large herds of buffalo moving down sand rivers; a glimpse of a kudu antelope's spiral horns; a pack on African wild dogs panting in the sun – these are all treasures of Ruaha's wilderness.

Mahale Mountains

Mahale's picturesque Ottoman style camp on the shores of Lake Tanganyika is the base for exploring the lush hillsides that rise steeply to the East. And for anyone who makes the effort, the rewards of some fantastic chimpanzee viewing are there.

Katavi National Park

Characterised by huge herds of buffalo, and rivers packed with hippos, Katavi is the classic isolated African wilderness. A warm and cosy private lodge accommodates the few who make it to Katavi's splendour.

Zanzibar Island

The famous Spice Island has for centuries treated visitors to privileged insights into the rich tapestry of its history. From slaving days to modern resorts along white sand beaches, Zanzibar will please all who wade onto her shores.
