Top Ten Locations

If you were to draft a list of the top ten natural wonders of the whole of Africa, then Tanzania would have three of the top five ... Serengeti, Kilimanjaro and Ngorongoro.

Other jewels in the crown include the spice islands of Zanzibar and their reefs, the magnificent Lake Tanganyika, the deepest lake in the world and the incredibly untouched and remote parks of Ruaha, Katavi and Mahale. The Selous is the second largest park in Africa. Not forgetting other wonderful parks like Lake Manyara and Tarangire.

Add to this the fact that the country receives only one fifth of the number of visitors as Kenya each year and you can see why this country is considered to be one of the hottest places to visit ...

Number 1 : The Great Migration

Certainly one of nature's greatest spectacles, the great wildebeest migration around the Serengeti can be an awesome sight.

But visitors should beware ... the migration is not a constant phenomenon and timing a visit to co-incide with the surges of activity that climax with the crossing of the Grumeti River is not so easy (usually early June and mid-November).

A more reliable and equally impressive time to visit is during the calving season in February. It's certainly a favourite time of year for the lion of South Serengeti.
