Tanzania boasts many African continent superlatives, including its highest point at Uhuru peak (5895 metres) on majestic Mount Kilimanjaro, some of its largest and best wildlife sanctuaries, an exotic coastal history going back centuries as well as some of the deepest lakes along the western arm of the Great Rift Valley. Formed by the federation of mainland Tanganyika with Zanzibar and Pemba islands, it’s a huge country with significant mineral wealth and exotic natural attractions all waiting for the safari traveller.
Tanzania’s main attractions are the northern wildlife sanctuaries of Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater and the world famous Serengeti form one massive wildlife sanctuary, linked east to west across the country. The clove islands of Zanzibar and Pemba off the mainland coast share a long and exotic history and idyllic white beaches. The islands have a selection of excellent boutique hotels and luxury beach resorts. Mount Kilimanjaro attracts thousands of climbers every year and there are several routes to reach the summit. Selous and Ruaha wildlife sanctuaries in Southern Tanzania are relatively undiscovered and hold great appeal to the return Africa traveller.
