Tanzania
Out in Tanzania
Tanzania, the heart of Africa, is the ultimate safari destination. It's a classic yet adventurous choice for explorers. Wildlife encounters abound, from lions stalking their prey to the laughter of hyenas in the night. Elephants roam freely, while zebras create a mesmerizing sight. The action never stops. Whilst sipping a drink around a cozy campfire, remember to look up to the African night sky; a mosaic of stars so clear, you can almost touch it. Kilimanjaro's snow-capped peak overlooks iconic parks like Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and Serengeti. But that's just the beginning. Mahale Mountains' chimpanzees and the hidden treasures of Ruaha and Mkomazi National Parks await. Ruaha offers diverse landscapes, abundant wildlife, and rare species like wild dogs and leopards. Tanzania's richness extends to its tribes – over 120 with distinct traditions and languages. The people of the Maasai, the most famous tribe, live alongside nature and reside in Northern Tanzania. The Hadzabe, an ancient tribe that still hunts and gathers, lives near Lake Eyasi. Olduvai gorge, the cradle of mankind, which has witnessed thousands of years of homo sapiens roaming the earth, comes to mind when thinking of Tanzania. Did you know that the Kiswahili language has become the most spoken language in East Africa in recent history and is slowly gaining ground throughout the sub-Saharan region?

Ruaha National Park Set 500 km inland from Dar es Salaam in the south of Tanzania, Ruaha National Park is the second largest wildlife reserve in the country, an intense and hypnotic place to go on safari.

Conservation
The birthplace of our partners Conservation Through Tourism, to be found at www.conservationthroughtourism.com. Tanzania has attracted massive attention through wildlife documentaries, and through David Attenborough’s voice. This attention has brought many visitors to the country, and consequently crucial revenue for the protection of natural areas that are home to unique flora and fauna. Our conservation aim is to encourage travellers to visit vulnerable areas – areas that need conservation help, habitat and biodiversity protection and community support. Come and make an even greater impact while visiting the magnificent wildlife at Ruaha National Park or the chimpanzees in Mahale Mountains, the flamingo avalanche at Lake Natron and the rhino sanctuary at Mkomazi National Park.
Climate
Tanzania holds its charm throughout every season, making each day of the year special. Here are some climatological details: - The dry season spans from June to October, while the green season extends from November to May. - The Great Migration can be witnessed in the Serengeti ecosystem almost year-round. The Southern and Eastern parts of the park are typically visited from January to March. Herds move to Serengeti Central from April to June. The migration shifts to Northern areas, including the Masai Mara, from July to October. November and December are dedicated to the East and Central Serengeti. - The rainy season typically occurs from mid-March to mid-May, with a minor rainy period in November. Experiencing the lush and green Serengeti is a once-in-a-lifetime spectacle. Thus, we recommend considering a visit during the green seasons.
