Many safari destinations, a great variety of parks; from savanna, to montane rain forest. High wildlife densities. Unique animals and chances of observing them.
Tanzania was a fantastic safari destination - it is less congested than other locales and offers good value for money.

Classic game parks, but spoiled by too much industrial tourism.
The very names of the Tanzanian National Parks can fire the imagination! Serengeti... Ngorongoro.... However, while the wildlife viewing is superb, the experience is tainted by industrial tourism, poor facilities and outrageous entrance fees. Many times I have heard foreign visitors say they don't mind the high cost, as it is an investment in conservation. Unfortunately, there is little evidence of tourism dollars being directed towards conservation. That said, if one makes a little effort to avoid the crowds, the safari experience in Tanzania can be excellent.
Tanzania is a haven for parks. While some are more off-the-beaten-track than others, nearly all of them provide unparalleled wildlife viewing activities and stunning scenery.

It's not a zoo - it's out in the wilderness. It's something my family hasn't seen before. The country seemed so natural, and in some ways - healing.

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.
Wildlife, the big animals, are almost easy to see. It's not 100% guaranteed, but I think it shouldn't be that way. Tansania is a peaceful country. You don't have to be afraid all the time.
