Embark on an unforgettable safari in Tanzania
When it comes to wildlife, there are few places as epic as Tanzania. Where else can you explore a giant volcanic crater home to one of the densest concentrations of wildlife in Africa? Or traverse the seemingly endless plains of one of the oldest ecosystems on the planet (aka, the Serengeti)? As well as tracking down some of the world’s most elusive animals, you’ll have the opportunity to meet local tribes – including the Maasai – and learn about their ancient cultures and traditions. When you’ve ticked off the Big Five, why not bliss out on Zanzibar’s beaches, summit Kilimanjaro or discover the beauty of neighboring Kenya, Zimbabwe or Malawi?

Jump into a specially designed safari vehicle and journey deep into the vast, grassy plains of the Serengeti to search for the Big Five (the lion, the leopard, the bush elephant, the Cape buffalo and the rhino). The animals are active at different times of the day, which is why we head out on four game drives – two in the early morning and two in the late afternoon – for the best chance of spotting Africa's most iconic wildlife.
At 12.4 miles wide and 1969 feet deep, the scenes of Ngorongoro Crater's craggy volcanic peaks and lush grasslands are almost as impressive as the 30,000 animals that call it home. Traverse the crater floor in an open-roof 4WD to track down large game and smaller critters. If you're lucky, you might see lions, leopards, elephants and hippos. And if you're really lucky, maybe even an endangered black rhino.
You might come for the Big Five, but you'll stay for the culture and hospitality. Home to over 120 tribes, the little town of Mto wa Mbu is home to diverse cultures, languages and customs. Visit a local community to learn about traditional ways of life, sample banana beer, meet some local craftspeople and share a home-cooked meal with a family in their home. This is the Tanzania most travelers don't see.
Swap four wheels for two on an epic cycling-come-safari adventure through some of Tanzania's lesser-known landscapes. From cycling in the shadow of Mount Meru to whooshing past wildebeest and millions of flamingos in Lake Manyara, cycling allows you to go where cars can't and immerse yourself in the wildness and beauty of the African bush at a slower pace.
