This program is a sampler of the many experiences offered in Tanzania. Start your adventure in the coastal capital of Dar es Salaam and from there, fly to the Selous Game Reserve in the south of the country. Here, water is supreme with many hippos and crocodiles on view. Land has its part too, including walking safaris in pursuit of giraffes and elephants.
After, fly to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area which offers a unique combination of living the landed lifestyle in a Manor compound and spending a day game viewing in the Crater. Then it’s off to the Serengeti for that “Out of Africa” experience capped with beach time in Zanzibar.
