Amazing safari parks, lots of diversity, beautiful views, amazing birding.
I have travelled widely in Tanzania (and elsewhere). It is a big country with lots of contrasts. Special highlights - beyond the obvious - include: Mafia Island which has wonderful diving in a relatively shallow lagoon (enabling snorkellers to see a lot); the Usambara Mountains with the lovely old German rest house at Amani and the deafening dawn chorus of trumpeter hornbills; and the excavated ruins of Kilwa Kisiwani.

Home to some of the best safari parks in the worlds.
My experience in Tanzania is one of the best in my life. It is as simple as this.
Absolutely smashing. The people in Tanzania are wonderful. Wildlife seems to be very much cared for.

Nice people, great scenery and in general a nice country to visit. Traffic in the large cities are cramped as in most urban places in Africa.

Mainly very quiet but one or two places are very busy at times.

We saw plenty of wildlife during our stay and we didn't feel particularly crowded by hordes of other people.

Same as my previous comment, the country and people are fantastic, the wildlife plentiful, it would be a shame not to go there if you have the opportunity

Flights are easy and it's relatively safe. You can easily spend a night in Dar Es Salaam on arrival before flying out to the safari camp, and there are also lovely beaches too for the tail-end of your holiday (you don't need to go to Zanzibar). Mostly though I rate it because Selous was such a superb park
