TOP SAFARI DESTINATIONS

Frequently voted as the best country to visit when searching for wildlife, there are many reasons to choose a Tanzania safari over other African nations. Not only does the country boast one of the broadest ranges of wildlife on the continent, many of the parks still exist without any boundary fences, rare in the modern world and delivering a much more authentic safari experience. Wildlife that is truly – wild.

The Ngorongoro Crater in Northern Tanzania was once a gigantic volcano and is the largest intact caldera in the world. It was believed that before its eruption, it would have been higher than Mt Kilimanjaro, the highest peak in Africa. Today, long since having collapsed and eroded, it is an extensive highland area with the famous 600 m deep Ngorongoro Crater as its focal point. Nearly three million years old, this ancient caldera is home to the most beautiful wildlife sanctuary on earth.

This park is known for the tree-climbing lions, the soda ash lake that attracts thousands and pink flamingos, one of Tanzania’s biggest elephant populations, and breathtaking scenery. Located in the northern part of Tanzania, Lake Manyara National Park is 126 kilometers west of Arusha Town covering an area of 330 sq km.

The Tarangire National Park is most popular for its large elephant herds and mini-wildlife migration that takes place during the dry season which sees about 250,000 animals enter the park. The name Tarangire comes from the Tarangire river which crosses through the park. Different wildlife species drink from the river which is a primary source of water for the animals especially during dry season.

The Serengeti is one of the most famous parks in Africa. It is Tanzania’s oldest park and a Unesco World Heritage Site. It is home to the spectacular wildebeest migration and offers top-class wildlife viewing throughout the year. The Serengeti offers some of the best wildlife viewing in Africa. Cheetah and four of the Big 5 can be found. Aside from the big cats, many other predators can be spotted.

• Dry Seasons: Jan–Mar & Jun–Oct

  The weather is usually mild and dry from January to March, and also lesser crowd. June to October is safari’s high season, and Tanzania’s major parks like the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara are busy but weather conditions are superb including Tanzania’s coast, Zanzibar.

• Green Season: Nov–Dec

  The ‘short rains’ season relieve the dry mid-year winter. Clouds build up in the mornings and break in spectacular, but generally short-lived, showers in the late afternoons. Migrant birds return from the northern hemisphere and resident plains game give birth, which means the predator action is thrilling. Landscapes are green and lush, which makes for the perfect photography conditions.

• Migration Season: Dec–Sept

  The herds usually cross the Grumeti River in the western Serengeti between about May and July. They then move towards the Mara River in the north to cross into the Masai Mara between about July to October. November’s short rains trigger the herds to move back to the Serengeti to give birth during the calving season from January to March – a period renowned for bitter-sweet predator action.

BEST TIME FOR SAFARI

The national parks and private reserves are spread over an extensive habitat and climate range. The best wildlife viewing is in winter (May to September). However, the favorable summer climate (October to March) means most people visit at this time.

Although game drive is the primary activity in your Tanzania safari, there’s also an extensive list of activities you can add to your itinerary to make for a diverse holiday. These activities are usually not included in a typical safari package but can be added at an extra cost. Choose the activity within your interest and decide for yourself when you want to do it.

ACTIVITIES YOU CAN ADD-ON

Witness the beauty of Africa from a bird’s eye view. Balloon Safari is an exhilarating experience that would you give a breath-taking view of the landscape of the park where you hover above large herds of animals. Serengeti is one of the destinations where such activity takes place, and mornings are the perfect time for the activity to witness a colorful view of the heavens.

Balloon Safari

On foot you are a participant in the world of wildlife rather than a spectator, a thrilling and unbeatable safari experience. This activity lets you get in touch with nature, hear the sounds of trees and animals, and genuinely appreciate the experience. In this activity, you will be guided by a professional and there are designated paths to follow.

The wild expanses of Tanzania offers the ultimate paradise for birding enthusiasts especially at the Serengeti National Reserve, Lake Manyara National Park, and Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Tanzania is host to over 900 resident and 200 migrant bird species throughout national park and game reserves, while Tarangire National Park boasts 500 species.

City Visit

Get to know Tanzania on another level. An opportunity to learn about Tanzania’s tribes and rich culture standing the test of time. Meet for example the Hadzabe tribe, one of the last remaining hunter-gatherer tribes on the planet, who have kept their way of life for thousands of years. Nearby is the Datoge tribe known for their jewelry and weapon making skills. Lastly, don’t miss the famous Masai Tribe and meet the nomadic and pastoralist Maasai people.

Arusha, the starting point of safaris in the north is a popular hub to experience Tanzania’s city life. Here you can visit local cafes, museums, bars and restaurants. Dar Es Salaam, another popular city destination is a more modern destination that offers much more variety to get to know Tanzania and Tanzanians better.
