Safari Details
Tanzania is the ultimate safari destination. And a safari in the Serengeti National Park (Tanzaniaโs first and most famous national park) and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area (where youโll find the spectacular Ngorongoro Crater) is the best of the best and the main reason a lot of people choose to visit Tanzania in the first place.
These areas are home to the annual wildebeest migration and when you see this spectacle, you will really understand the meaning of the circle of life. Think of vast open plains, spectacular scenery, and all the animals of your dreams. Lions, hyenas, leopards, elephants, giraffes, and zebra roam the savannah, locked in a constant battle for survival.
Itโs fascinating and humbling in equal measure.
What to Expect
