Tanzania, the country of your dreams

Whether you've got your sea legs, prefer to soar high above the clouds or are a fan of discovering the ecosystem, this country has everything you need for an unforgettable holiday. Here's a flavour of what you'll find on your trip to this land of adventure.

The wealth of its marine biodiversity

Fins and snorkels are more than necessary for admiring all the underwater riches of the islands and coasts. The islands are not the only places to observe the ecosystem. The mainland coast also offers some pleasant beaches. But if you want to get off the beaten track, Lake Tanganyika, in the far west, is a great place to discover new species of fish, in the peace and quiet of a truly deserted beach.

Kilimanjaro

Often compared to a cake, this snow-covered giant will take a lot of effort to reach. Generally speaking, it will take you around ten days to climb the 5895 metres and to come back down. Even if amateurs can try their hand at this expedition, you should be aware that only just over a third of climbs are successful. So you need a minimum of training and physical fitness to be able to do it. There are several routes to the summit, some harder than others and therefore more popular. We advise you to go there between September and February to take advantage of the milder weather.

National parks

Tanzania is one of the most popular countries for safaris. It has 14 national parks, including 6 where you can admire the famous Big Five. The Serengeti Park, the largest and therefore the most popular with tourists, is home to the world's largest herd of wildebeest. However, if you dream of being alone to discover its plains, unfortunately this won't be possible given its tourist appeal. Numerous agencies offer you the chance to discover some truly enchanting places to see the animals in their natural environment, while remaining very discreet and far from the hordes of tourists.
