Tanzania

A land of contrasts and majesty, Africa at its most wild and unexplored!

East Africa's largest country, Tanzania enjoys a perfect Location, perched on the edge of the African continent, and facing the Indian Ocean.

The country’s borders hold a vast number of people and tribes whose varied cultures and traditions make up the rich tapestry that is Tanzanian culture.

Although Tanzania is a country rich in culture and traditions, it’s history is also one of treasured heritage and pride. From the early days of mankind's history, man has called the land of Tanzania home - its verdant mountains, its scrubland plains.

Tanzanians enjoy a climate of freedom and peace in thieir daily lives, and value community and togetherness very highly. Religion is an expression of community and culture, and one that binds all as citizens to their country and to the people around them. Tanzanians practice Christianity, Islam, and traditional African religions in tolerance and understanding.

The culture and traditions of the people can be seen in the everything they surround ourselves with and the handicrafts that are the specialties of the country.

When to Go

Situated so close to the equator, temperatures in Tanzania are fairly constant throughout the year, although the rainy season in April and May is best avoided.

The best times to view the Great Migration are from May to July when the plains are fresh and green, and again from November to March when the vast herds of animals return to calve.

From December to March the weather becomes increasingly hot and humid before the rains return in April.
