Tanzania Safaris Tours

Overview

Tanzania, the jewel of Africa’s safaris, is a paradise for wildlife enthusiasts. Picture yourself exploring the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater and the expansive Serengeti National Park, both teeming with life. The country boasts the legendary Big Five, along with countless other fascinating species. From elegant giraffes and playful hippos to elusive caracals and African wild dogs, the diversity of wildlife is astounding.

On a Tanzanian safari, you’re not just a spectator; you become part of the vibrant ecosystem. Animals roam freely, granting you an authentic glimpse into their daily lives. As the sun sets, the adventure continues in comfortable lodges, where the unique sounds of the savannah serve as your lullaby.

Tanzania’s landscapes are as varied as its wildlife, ranging from the arid plains of the Serengeti to the lush forests of Ngorongoro. Each corner of the country presents a new and breathtaking slice of nature, promising a rich and unforgettable wildlife journey.

What happens on a Safari in Tanzania?

Imagine yourself in a vehicle with a pop-up roof, providing breathtaking 360-degree views of the stunning landscape around you. Animals often come close, offering fantastic photo opportunities that capture the essence of the wild.

As night begins to fall, you’ll retreat to a cozy safari lodge or a mobile tented camp for a delightful dinner and a restful night. The adventure continues the following day, drawing you deeper into Tanzania’s natural wonders. This remarkable country is renowned for its breathtaking landscapes and rich wildlife, having graced Hollywood films like “Hatari!” and inspired Disney’s timeless classic, “The Lion King.”

However, an African safari in Tanzania goes beyond wildlife encounters; it is a vibrant cultural experience. Visit Maasai villages to engage with local traditions and explore remarkable historical sites like Olduvai Gorge, often referred to as the “Cradle of Mankind.”

For a truly immersive adventure, consider a walking safari through the savannah for intimate encounters with nature. If you’re seeking an even more exhilarating experience, glide above the terrain in a hot air balloon, relishing the scenic beauty from a bird’s-eye view. Embrace these unique and off-the-beaten-path experiences that will enrich the journey of your safari adventure.

What animals you will see on Tanzania safari?

In Tanzania, the thrill of encountering the ‘Big Five’—lions, leopards, buffaloes, rhinoceroses, and elephants—draws countless adventure seekers to its breathtaking safaris. Although rhinos are a rare sight in East Africa, the Ngorongoro Crater offers a unique opportunity to spot these magnificent creatures. Meanwhile, the other members of the Big Five are abundant, ensuring unforgettable moments and exhilarating wildlife experiences that will leave you in awe.

But there’s so much more than just the Big Five. Tanzania is a vibrant tapestry of wildlife, showcasing magnificent cheetahs, wildebeests, zebras, and playful monkeys. Bird enthusiasts will be enchanted by the country’s stunning array of 1,156 bird species, including over 800 resident species and countless migratory visitors that can be best observed from December to April. The incredible diversity of avian life in Tanzania truly excites those who share a passion for birdwatching.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why Tanzania?

Renowned as one of the best countries for wildlife adventures, safari tours in Tanzania offer an unforgettable vacation experience in the heart of Africa. Ranked as the top safari destination by a panel of experts, Tanzania captivates visitors with its rich natural heritage and stunning scenic views.

It is one of the few places on the planet where the natural world remains largely untouched by human civilization. Here, everyone has the opportunity to become an explorer, embarking on an immersive journey that harks back to the times of David Livingstone and Heinrich Barth. You will witness Wild Africa in its purest form and relive the experiences of the early pioneers who traversed the landscapes of Tanzania.

Choosing the right time for a safari in Tanzania really depends on your preferences. The dry season, spanning June to October and January to March, are ideal for wildlife spotting as animals gather around water sources. You’ll enjoy sunny days, but expect crowds, especially during the Great Migration and the birthing seasons of zebras and wildebeests.

On the other hand, the rainy season, in April-May and November-December, offers a lush landscape with fewer visitors and potential discounts at lodges. Transition periods like late March, early June, late October, and November are perfect for a more peaceful experience, balancing good weather with fewer tourists.

Two countries in East Africa provide remarkable safari experiences: Kenya & Tanzania. However, Tanzania frequently stands out. Many prefer it for its less crowded parks and abundant wildlife, which includes unique animal sightings. The extended Great Migration period in the Serengeti National Park is also a major attraction. Additionally, the country offers the opportunity to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest mountain.

Formerly known as a vacation spot for jetsetters only, today the doors of this Animals Paradise are open for everyone.

Wildlife Tanzania Safari Tours is an ideal choice for a family vacation, friends reunion, honeymoon, celebration of a graduation or team-building. An indelibly fascinating journey to the country, which natural sanctuaries inspired the “King Lion” cartoon, is by far the most original, off-the-beaten-track way of getting unwind from the routine.

We have Tanzania Safari Packages for different budgets. Whether you are looking for one-of-a-kind hospitality experiences in the award-winning luxury lodges in the most secluded locations of the savannah, or a cozy African-styled no-frills hotels on Ngorongoro Crater rim – Altezza Travel will help you to get the most of your trip.

Our Tanzania safari tours feature different activities. Apart from traditional SUV game-drives in the National Parks, we organize:

  • Hot-air ballooning adventures – you will be hovering over the endless Tanzanian savannah and having a bird’s-eye view of the wildlife;
  • Amazing walking safaris – hiking (in a company of an armed ranger) among the giraffes and other animals with majestic Mount Kilimanjaro behind you is a lifetime experience.

Whatever your Tanzanian fancy you may have – we are here to make it come true!

Wi-Fi is available in our safari vehicles. However, please note that in the more remote areas of national parks, coverage might be limited. You can also expect Wi-Fi in hotels and lodges across Tanzania. The connection in those locations can sometimes be intermittent too.
