Embark on a safari adventure and experience Tanzania’s breathtaking wildlife. One of nature’s most extraordinary events—the Great Migration—awaits you in the Serengeti. Imagine the earth trembling as millions of wildebeest and zebras thunder across the plains in a spectacular display of survival and instinct.
From the endless savannahs of the Serengeti to the dramatic Ngorongoro Crater and elephant-rich Tarangire, nowhere else on Earth offers such an extraordinary concentration of wildlife in one place.
Often overshadowed by Kilimanjaro, Mount Meru (4,562m) is Tanzania’s second-highest peak and a rewarding trek in its own right.

Adventurers looking for a shorter, less demanding climb than Kilimanjaro.
Hikers seeking rich wildlife encounters—giraffes, buffalos, monkeys, and more along the trail.
