Of all the countries in Africa, there may be no better place to see the animals that define the continent than Tanzania. Relatively undiscovered, Tanzania is a wonderland of gorgeous topography and stunning wildlife. From Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest permanently snow-capped free standing mountain in Africa, to the finest game sanctuaries of the Serengeti and the Great Lakes of Lake Victoria and Lake Tanganyika to the island of Zanzibar, Tanzania delivers sights and experiences that will take your breath away.
The Great Migration is one such experience that will leave you breathless. This million animal herd moves clockwise across Tanzania, pursuing the rain and the promise of water and food. The journey is treacherous, filled with river crossings and predators, but ultimately life-affirming. To see The Great Migration in Tanzania is to see the circle of life in action. What's more, to witness calving season and see the very first steps of the Wildebeest before they embark on this migration is to see the beginning of that circle.
Tanzania is also home to Lake Manyara National Park which features stunning landscapes of forest, arid land, and beautiful Laka Manyara. There is also Ruaha National Park, the largest national park in Tanzania. Boasting more than 400 species of birds including Hornbills, Kingfishers and Sunbirds, this region of Tanzania is a natural aviary. Additionally, Ruaha has a significant population of elephants found along the Great Ruaha River and also features the best game viewing of lion prides found anywhere. If you want to experience wildlife untamed and up close, then there is no better place in Africa than Tanzania.
