In addition to Lake Manyara NP, we also spent 2 days in Ngorongoro Crater and 3 days in the Serengeti. The same advice should be followed as with Lake Manyara: find a good guide. The variety and number of animals and birds to be seen is truly astounding. From the cheetah hunt to the hot-air balloon ride, every turn presents a new and unexpected pleasure.

The countryside and wildlife are beautiful, the people are friendly and you will see the best that Africa has to offer. Local flights, e.g. to Zanzibar are worth considering as the roads can be rough and slow.

Tanzania was amazing! From our first stop in the Serengeti to our final destination of Zanzibar, there was always something to see and do. The people, the wildlife, and the scenery were all amazing.
We saw so much, yet there was still so much we hadn't seen! Even Kilimanjaro was covered by clouds!

Tanzania is a great safari destination, because you have everything you want on a safari in one country. You have the upscale tourist areas in the northeastern part of Tanzania, while there are plenty of off-the-beaten-track destinations around the country. The wildlife is amazing, with a great diversity and of course the Big Five. It has 2 parks where you can see chimpanzees in the wild. You can climb Mount Kilimanjaro (the highest mountain in Africa). Tanzania has gorgeous beaches and plenty of places where you can dive and see amazing marine life, can swim with dolphins, and perhaps spot a whale shark. Next to that, Tanzanian people are extremely friendly, helpful and hospitable, which will guarantee an amazing stay in this beautiful country. Moreover, in the last years many cultural events have developed, such as cultural villages, the Sauti za Busara music festival on Zanzibar, and the Zanzibar International Film Festival.

I've been there three times. Two safaris and climbing the Kilimanjaro. Always a great experience. Lovely people; the sense of freedom. I love the way Tanzania smells.

Tanzania has some wonderful places to see wildlife. Highlights for us where the Lake Manyara Tree lodge, visiting the Ngorongoro crater and Lodge, and especially Klein's Camp. Sure some of the locations can be very busy with tourist (Ngorongoro crater for example), but in almost every case the beauty of the wildlife and nature will overcome this drawback with ease.
