Tanzania is a stunning East African country known for its diverse landscapes, including Mount Kilimanjaro, the Serengeti National Park, and the idyllic beaches of Zanzibar, making it a premier destination for wildlife and adventure enthusiasts.

I was quite dissapointed of Arusha. The city is a transient hotspot and not at all safe or even nice. Its the gateway to Kilimanjaro and Safaris. The food is really bland and not so good.

Coming from western culture, Tanzania was definitely a destination unbeknownst to me. First and foremost, the people that I came across were ever so friendly, seemed relaxed and calm and eager to help. They didn’t seem to have “an agenda” which is so common in western culture. Akuna Matata isn’t just a slogan - it’s their way of life! The highlight of my trip was a visit to a local school in Zanzibar in which I got to experience some of the educational culture. It was truly fascinating! Another highlight was the snorkeling experience nearby Mneba Island.
My tour operator - Plex Africa Safari - was very professional, accommodating and knowledgeable.
I would go back any time to experience Tanzania anytime!

the weather was nice, few animals, lake manyara was empty didn't deserve the time past there, we didn't see nothing there, best park was Sirengetti. Sirengeti luxury tent was the best part of our safari with very welcomig stuff and friendly people. spotting animals was hard. just few of them. black rhino was so far and it was not allowed to go close. so you can see Rhino just with binocular. our driver was so pathetic and didn't like when we stop to take fotos.

we did the 3 Day Nyerere NP (Selous) Road Safari from Dar-Es-SalaamThe safari was in one word amazing. The pick up service, the guide Hendrik, the accommodation, food, and of course the game drive in the park. So special to experience this, and everything was arranged to perfection. really a trip to never forget.

Disappointment

Having seen several countries in Africa I was disappointed by what I found in Tanzania. Beautiful landscapes but much more exciting Safaris in other places, all ruined by those who work with tourism and try to squeeze everything they can from tourists. I had a very bad experience with the operators (delays, overcharges, lack of seriousness) and unfortunately this is Tanzania too, you can't ignore this. The sea of ​​Zanzibar is beautiful.

Disappointing safari
This was our third safari the last 2 were in masa mari National park this one was in Nyerere national park
We booked through Greg adventures and would not use them again
They flew us outside the national park and arrived at 7 am and we couldn’t enter the park til after 11 am because they only paid 2 days park fee when though we were quoted for a 3 day safari
We drove nearly 7 hours to get to our hotel through desperate roads
We ended up having to buy a flight out from a nearby airstrip as we couldn’t face the journey again
The park is nowhere near as good as masa mari it’s hard to see the animals with all the growth and we could drive fir ages without seeing anything
Overall disappointing and had a lot of upset all down to the agent we booked through

We were not lucky to visit national game park in rain season at the coast near DAR es Salaam. Due to the high grass and bush we did not see a lot of animals,Dar es Salaam is a big city with not a nice vibe.
