Frequently asked questions about Tanzania
Planning a tour of Tanzania can still raise some questions. To give you a helping hand, we have answered some frequently asked questions about Tanzania below.
Tanzania is located on the east coast of Africa and borders several countries, the best known being Kenya and Uganda. The country has a vast coastline along the Indian Ocean with a few islands about 20 kilometers off the coast.
If there is one thing Tanzania is known for, it is its many magnificent game reserves and national parks. Some of the most famous game reserves in Tanzania are:
Serengeti National Park: This is Tanzania's most famous game reserve. The Serengeti consists of vast savannas where you can spot incredible wildlife and if you are lucky you can also catch a glimpse of the famous annual migration of wildebeest and zebras;
Ngorongoro Conservation Area: Ngorongoro Crater is a huge collapsed volcano that has become home to many wild animals. Because of its natural enclosure, where animals such as giraffes and elephants have difficulty getting in and out, the concentration of wildlife here is very high;
Tarangire National Park: this park is known for its large numbers of elephants and impressive baobab trees.
Other beautiful game reserves in Tanzania to consider visiting are: Selous Game Reserve, Ruaha National Park and Mikumi National Park.
How much time you need for a tour of Tanzania depends entirely on your wishes. Do you only want to go on safari? Then 2 weeks will more than suffice. In this time frame you can visit several game reserves. Would you like to see more of the country? Then we can definitely recommend 3 weeks for a trip through Tanzania.Â
Wondering what you can see in 3 weeks in Tanzania? This was our 3-week itinerary through Tanzania. We also visited Zanzibar!
Whether you put together your own tour of Tanzania and Zanzibar or opt for an organized trip, one thing is certain: you are on the eve of an unforgettable adventure. Both options have their charms. Self-planning gives you a lot of freedom and flexibility: you determine the route, the pace of travel and your favorite accommodations. It does require some preparation time and research.
An organized tour, on the other hand, offers convenience and security: you don't have to figure anything out, everything is arranged for you and you travel carefree from highlight to highlight. Do you want the freedom of an individual trip, but without the stress of planning it yourself? Then a tailor-made trip is the perfect middle ground. During a personal video interview we will listen to your wishes and put together a unique itinerary, with special accommodations, authentic experiences and practical tips that really help you.
