Tanzania

The classic safari country. Nestled in between Kenya and Zambia, Tanzania is home to a multitude of game as well as some of the world's most renowned game parks. Names like Serengaeti and Selous are part of the history of African game. The sheer variety of landscapes, lodges, camps and game make this a very exciting country indeed and our first choice for Africa.

But Tanzania is not only about game - it has a long coastline and some impressive islands such as Pemba and Zanzibar. With only one-fifth of the number of visitors who come to Kenya, Tanzania is considered one of the hottest up and coming tourism and game destinations in the world. With idyllic islands and quality retreats, superb diving and eating, yachting on fantastic coastlines, this place can give you a wonderful beach holiday as well as a safari experience second to none.

Our operator in Tanzania, Makuti Safaris is a quality outfit. They specialise in old-fashioned safaris, bearers, cooks, and luxury tented camps. There is nothing quite like a night in the African veldt in a small non-intrusive camp, separated from all the activity only by some canvas.
