Why Choose Tanzania for Your Wildlife Safari?

Tanzania is often called the crown jewel of African safari destinations. Here’s why:

• Home of the Great Migration — Witness over 1.5 million wildebeest, zebras, and gazelle crossing rivers and traversing the Serengeti plains (especially mid-June to late September).

• All of the Big Five — Lions, elephants, buffalo, leopards, and rhinos can all be seen in parks like Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti.

• Varied ecosystems & offbeat parks — From Tarangire’s elephants and baobabs to the remote Nyerere (formerly Selous) and Ruaha, you’ll see contrasting landscapes and fewer crowds.

• Rich cultural interactions — Meet Maasai and other indigenous groups, learn of local conservation, and see Tanzania beyond wildlife.

• Flexibility & value — You can do luxury, mid-range, or budget safaris depending on your needs.
