Tanzania - Fauna Travel

Tanzania

Tanzania is the quintessential safari destination. Serengeti National Park in western Tanzania is its most park because of the great wildebeest migration and large populations of other plains game. Because of its popularity, we recommend the private wildlife reserves like Grumeti that surround the Serengeti for a less crowded game drive experience.

Visitors to Tanzania should also make time for some of its less touristed but equally spectacular destinations like the baobabs of Ruaha National Park or the chimpanzees of Mahale Mountains National Park. A Tanzanian safari is often finished with a relaxing stay in Zanzibar to unwind on the beach.
