Safari conjures images of boundless plains, scenic hot air balloon views and huge herds of game animals. Tanzania is a classic safari destination and home to some of Africa's most iconic wildlife regions, including the famous Serengeti, the vast Ngorongoro Crater and Africa's largest game reserve, the Nyerere National Park. Combine your safari with a tropical island stay in Zanzibar, just off the Tanzania coast, for the ideal mix of adventure and relaxation. We’ll help you choose the right way to experience Tanzania, shaped around how you want to travel.

TANZANIA EXPERIENCES
A superior safari destination, Tanzania offers a wealth of iconic wildlife and adventure experiences, to suit couples, families and solo travellers. We’ll customise once-in-a-lifetime Tanzania safaris and vacations that reflect your specific interests, passions and dreams.
Tanzania is home to the Great Migration, Kilimanjaro and some of Africa’s largest parks. Experience remarkable wildlife encounters on the vast plains of the Serengeti, discover the dramatic landscapes of the Ngorongoro Crater and the Great Rift Valley. Zanzibar’s beaches and historic towns offer the perfect island idyll to end your visit. Let us design a custom trip including the perfect places for you.
Tanzania is considered a year-round safari destination with distinct green and dry seasons. July and September are peak months to witness iconic Great Migration river crossings in the Serengeti. June to October is the dry season and prime time for best game sightings, with November to March offering lush landscapes and fewer visitors.

Holiday to
Tanzania
Another flawlessly executed vacation. This is our fourth trip to Africa with Mahlatini and we wouldn’t trust anyone else. We were originally booked to go to Tanzania, Oman and UAE for 2 weeks.
