The Greatest Wildlife Show on Earth on a Holiday in Tanzania
Tanzania is sure to captivate you with its raw beauty. Experience the vast Serengeti, the stunning diversity of Ngorongoro Crater, and views of soaring Kilimanjaro. Explore ancient Olduvai Gorge and take in Zanzibar’s many shades of blue. These are just some of the sights that will make your Tanzania holiday extraordinary.
Why visit Tanzania?
Tanzania is the main venue for “the greatest show on Earth” – the Great Migration, where millions of wildebeest, gazelles, and zebras thunder across the Serengeti plains in search of greener pastures. This is a spectacular wildlife viewing experience and one of the top things to do in Tanzania.
Start your Tanzania safari holidays with a visit to Serengeti National Park. Embark on thrilling safari drives, go on bush walks, and enjoy a bird’s-eye view of the plains from a hot air balloon. It’s truly an experience of a lifetime.
If you want to tread off the beaten path, make your way to Gombe Stream National Park to interact with chimpanzees in the wild. Or go to Tarangire National Park, where you can observe giant tuskers in a landscape studded with baobab trees.
Hippos, cheetahs, lions, and herds of elephants roam the fertile lands of the Ngorongoro Crater—the world’s biggest intact volcanic caldera. Trace the evolution of humankind at the Olduvai Gorge, often referred to as the Cradle of Humankind.
The country’s diverse landscapes attract plenty of birds. Flocks of graceful flamingos migrate to Lake Manyara’s alkaline waters in search of food. Figure out the best times to visit to see these pink beauties before you plan your trip.
Zanzibar’s sandy beaches provide the perfect setting to relax and rejuvenate after an action-packed Tanzania holiday. Roam the cobblestone streets of atmospheric Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Tanzania’s world-class attractions are hard to beat. See our list of top things to do in Tanzania to help you plan your holiday. You could even consider a multi-centre holiday and add Kenya or South Africa to your Tanzania holiday. Speak to our travel consultants now and plan out the holiday of your dreams.

“Consider a Serengeti hot air balloon ride for a bird’s eye-view game viewing experience in Tanzania. A great spot for a balloon experience is in the Central Serengeti, where wildlife gathers year-round in the Seronera River Valley to drink from an everlasting water hole.”
