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.

  • Birds

    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.

Tarangire Treetops

Tarangire National Park

Tarangire Treetops is situated in a Maasai concession area, 45 minutes from the Boundary Hill gate to the Tarangire Park.

There are twenty tree houses built on stilts in the branches of baobab trees. They are exceptionally pretty with polished wooden floors, large beds covered in bright fabrics, sweeping mosquito nets and lots of big cushions on the verandas under the branches. There are en suite bathrooms with toilets, basins and hot showers.

The main lodge is built on lower platforms, but still around some large baobab trees. There is a bar, dining room and small pool, surrounded by a deck with sunloungers on. As the lodge is on a small hill there are good views of the surrounding bush.

It is possible to enjoy nature walks from lodge or full day drives into the park. It's an ideal lodge to relax a bit at, as well as enjoying safari.
