Tanzania

A Land of Endless Horizons and Untamed Beauty

Where vast savannahs meet the shores of the Indian Ocean and the highest peak in Africa, Mount Kilimanjaro, casts its majestic shadow. This is a country where the rhythms of life are set by the wild, from the great migration in the Serengeti to the vibrant coral reefs of Zanzibar.

  • Serengeti and Northern Circuit

    The Serengeti’s vast plains host the renowned Great Migration, one of the most spectacular wildlife events on Earth. Ngorongoro Crater offers a unique ecosystem teeming with wildlife, and Lake Manyara’s flamingos and tree-climbing lions complete the quintessential safari experience.

  • Zanzibar and Coastal Isles

    Zanzibar’s pristine beaches and clear turquoise waters make it a tropical paradise. Stone Town captivates with its rich history and culture, while the coral reefs of Pemba and Mafia islands are a haven for divers and snorkelers seeking vibrant marine life.

  • Mount Kilimanjaro and Surrounds

    Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s tallest peak, offers an unforgettable challenge for climbers and breathtaking views for adventurers. The lush foothills, dotted with coffee farms and rainforests, create a serene backdrop for exploration.

  • Southern Tanzania and Selous Game Reserve

    The untouched wilderness of Southern Tanzania is a dream for those seeking off-the-beaten-path safaris. Selous Game Reserve and Ruaha National Park boast diverse wildlife and tranquil landscapes, ideal for an exclusive and immersive safari experience.

Tanzania is a year-round destination, with the best safari experiences during the dry season, June to October, when wildlife is most visible. The "long rains" (April-May) and "short rains" (November) bring lush landscapes but can make some areas harder to access.

Zanzibar and the coast are ideal from June to March, offering warm, sunny weather perfect for beach getaways and water activities. Rainy months still provide a tranquil, tropical retreat.

Add Tanzania to your life’s story

What to bring on your safari?

Above all, bring your curiosity, a sense of adventure, and plenty of storage space for photographs! For comfort on safari, opt for casual clothing that’s easy to wash and wear, with muted colours being ideal for blending into the surroundings during game drives. Since early morning and late afternoon drives can be chilly (especially in winter), dressing in layers is recommended to accommodate warmer midday temperatures.

Recommended safari packing list for Tanzania:

  • Clothing in khaki, green, beige, or other neutral shades

  • Long-sleeved shirts (to protect from the sun and mosquitoes)

  • T-shirts

  • Shorts or a light skirt

  • Jeans or safari trousers for cooler days/evenings

  • Jackets or sweaters for chilly early mornings and late afternoons

  • A lightweight waterproof jacket for possible rain

  • Swim or beachwear

  • Comfortable walking shoes

  • Sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, insect repellent, moisturizer, and lip balm

  • Binoculars and camera equipment

If you’re taking a small aircraft, be aware that luggage allowances typically cap at 15 kg (33 lbs) total, including hand luggage. Most lodges and camps do offer same-day laundry service.
