Short Description
Tanzania has the largest wild animal population in the world. The country's sites have magical names: The Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Olduvai Gorge, Kilimanjaro. Our trip has been structured with only a short time in the urban capitals, leaving us with ample time for game drives as we move right into the bush. Different national parks have been included for a variety of landscape and game.
Besides the game and birds, the population of Tanzania is very exotic with 260 tribes; we'll see their villages and crafts.
