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.

  • 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.

Mbuzi Mawe

Serengeti National Park

Mbuzi Mawe is a new camp set in the heart of the Serengeti.

Nestled amongst a cluster of rocky outcrops or kopjes, the camp consists of 16 well appointed luxury tents all with their own ensuite bathrooms and private verandas.

The tents have been decorated using African fabrics and rustic four poster beds to give an air of stylish colonial elegance with a real African feel.

Mbuzi Mawe really comes into its own when the wildebeest migration passes through this area of the Serengeti, providing an excellent base from which to view this magnificent wildlife spectacle.

The camp is named after the Swahili word for the klipspringer - a small antelope which has specially adapted hoofs to allow it to leap from rock to rock and these can often be seen around the camp.

Activities from this camp include game drives, massages, bush dinners and sundowner cocktails. Balloon flights can also be arranged.
