Tanzania

Tanzania MapsFour times the size of Great Britain, Tanzania covers nearly a million square miles and contains 800 kilometres of coastline, part of the Rift Valley and more inland waters than any other African country.  However, it is the combination of its vast game-rich reserves and the Indian Ocean islands of Zanzibar, Pemba and Mafia which make Tanzania such an attractive destination for the discerning visitor.

When to Go

Tanzania has two rainy seasons.  The long, heavy rains fall in March, April and May and the short, light rains fall in November and December. The best time to visit is between July and October when daytime temperatures are comfortable and nights are refreshingly cool.  One should avoid April and May when heavy rains can make travelling difficult.

We combine two remote, little-visited parks of Ruaha and Selous in the south with exotic Zanzibar in the Indian Ocean  to produce a well-rounded programme which provides a perfect balance of big game, sandy beaches, coral reefs, old architecture and African/Arabian culture.  You will benefit from accommodation of a high standard and the convenience of flying by light aircraft, thus keeping long road journeys to a minimum.  Find out more...

Incorporating some of the most fabulous wildlife areas in Tanzania, this comprehensive itinerary stays well off the beaten track using small tented camps and, for the northern section, a private naturalist guide with 4x4 vehicle.  September and October aside, you will be well placed the rest of the year for the legendary wildebeest migration.  Experience a Tanzania tented camps safari in the style of a bygone era.  Find out more...

An extraordinary and unusual Ruaha, Katavi and Mahale safari in Tanzania’s remote west, a land of vast open plains, chimpanzee forests and very few tourists.  If prepared to invest a little extra time and energy to escape the main safari routes, one is richly rewarded with large amounts of plains wildlife and the thrill of close encounters with chimpanzees.  Time spent relaxing on Zanzibar rounds off an adventurous and exclusive wildlife experience.  Find out more...
