Wild Wild Africa
So much of Tanzania feels untouched. The southern regions that I travelled in were wildest, purest Africa. Jungle,beaches, mountains, wildlife - Tanzania has it all. Hiking to the waterfalls of the Udzungwa Mountains National Park, negotiating the chaos of Dar's traffic, snorkelling the reefs off the coast and game driving in the many wildlife destinations and sharing a Ndhovu Lager with Tanzanian friends in a bar to round it all off. Karibu sana, rafiki.

Everything you ever want from a safari can be found in Tanzania. The scenery really gives you the true African feel and you can find wildlife almost everywhere.

There is everything there to see, but you might just have to be a little more patient and observation than in some other safari's, but that just makes all it more worthwhile

Tanzania's gift to the world is it's park system of undeveloped nature and undisturbed wildlife.
Tanzania has a park system that is commercially undisturbed. Although, some areas are not lush, the absence of any human remodeling allows you to see it's beauty. When you see animals, there is no zoo like atmosphere. Their Hotels blend into the local landscape; they are are quiet; their staff are warm and the food excellent.
The undeveloped nature of the African Bush in Tanzania gives you the feeling of really being in the wild.

Tanzania has numerous national parks and game reserve that have some of the greatest wildlife in the world. Other than the famous Serengeti, Arusha, and Ngorogoro Crater, Tanzania has places like Selous Game Reserve, Ruaha National Park, and Mikumi National Park that offer game viewing that is just as spectacular but also offer a little more privacy with the animals.
There are so many options and there is something for everyone.
Parks are not too crowded and are kept wild, for now.

Spectacular wildlife
I really liked the fascinating wildlife. I've seen places like South Afrika, Botswana and Namibia. To be honest: Kenia and Tanzania tops them all. More wildlife, more big cats, lots of birds. Fantastic. Sleep in a tent on an unfenced campground inside a National Park, being visited by elephants, hyena's, buffalo an lions. What more do you want? Seeing the big five in 1 day. Visited several local communities to see normal life in Kenia and tanzania. Fishing with locals for tilapia. Nice.

Beautiful country, from white-sand beaches to parks & conservations that are ungated and left alone! I spent 12 hours on safari in Southern Africa, on paved roads, and didn't see lions or cheetahs! I spent 3 hours on safari in Tanzania, and saw a pair of cheetahs (and recorded their sweet cry to one another), lions, ostrich mating dance, a gazelle 20 feet up in a tree (killed and dragged up there by a leopard!) and a lion kill!!! We almost saw the full circle of life! Now if we could just see a birth!
