Reasons To
Visit Tanzania

  • Beaches

    It is extremely easy to add some beach relaxation in Zanzibar after a tiring safari on the mainland; the beaches are stunning and diving is excellent. You don't have to travel far either as the island is only a 30 minute flight from Dar Es Salaam. Tanzania is therefore the ideal location to combine a safari and beach break.

  • Big Cats & Safari Wildlife

    Tanzania has some of Africa's most famous and best national parks and reserves where you are guaranteed fantastic big cat sightings. The Serengeti, Selous and the Crater are just some of the best game viewing areas to visit.

    Tanzania has more than 1,000 species of birds and some spectacular places to view them. Lake Natron is also the only known breeding ground for East Africa's millions of lesser flamingos which cover the lake between August and October.

  • Chimpanzees

    The Mahale Mountains - towering almost 2km above the shore of Lake Tanganyika are home to some of the last remaining wild chimpanzees. There are currently around 900 which are habituated to humans, and tracking them is a magical experience.

  • Great Migration

    One of the highlights of the Serengeti National park is the great annual migration which passes through this amazing wilderness. Up to 1.8 million wildebeest and zebra have been counted doing their annual trip in search of the sweet grasses and the rains.

  • Local Culture

    Tanzania has an evocative mix of people and cultures with 120 ethnic groups making up the diverse population. The largest group are the Sukuma but perhaps the most memorable are the Maasai who you will often see in Northern Tanzania herding their cattle, goats and sheep.

Grumeti River Camp

Serengeti National Park

Grumeti Camp has a fabulous situation above a hippo pool in the Serengeti's western corridor.

All the tents have views of the pool which is full to bursting with brilliant green Nile cabbage and small pods of hippos wallowing happily. Baboons and vervet monkeys play in the trees and it's not unusual to see elephant come to the pool or the nearby Grumeti River to drink.

The camp itself is one of Africa's most beautiful lodges. The ten tents are superbly spacious and ingeniously designed with African wood carvings, king sized beds, rich fabrics and open air showers in the en suite bathrooms.

There is a lovely pool, bar with deep sofas and outdoor boma where evening meals are enjoyed lit by hundreds of lanterns under the stars.
