You want to go on a wildlife safari but with endless tour companies to pick from and not knowing which parks to select, the process of planning a trip to Tanzania can seem overwhelming.
We are here to help you, so take a deep breath, put on your safari hat (which is optional) and ask yourself these questions:
What do I specifically want to see and experience during a safari tour?
What kind of accommodation would I like to spend the nights in?
When am I able to travel?
What to do in Tanzania?
Let us tackle your first question:
What do you want to see and experience during a safari?
On an authentic game drive you can expect to see a range different animals such as elephants, giraffes, zebras, tree climbing lions etc.
But is there a specific animal you would like to see or perhaps you have a specific national park, such as the Ngorongoro crater, you would like to visit?
With 22 national parks in Tanzania, you are spoilt for choice when it comes to having the opportunity to visit the natural habitats of Africa’s favourite wildlife population.
Do you want to see the The Great Wildebeest Migration?
Every year, more than 2 million animals (wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle) migrate in a clockwise direction across the ecosystems of the Serengeti (Tanzania) and the Masai Mara (Kenya).
Besides going on game drives, you can add other activities into your itinerary, which you and your travel companions will enjoy, whether you are going on a family trip or choosing Tanzania as your honeymoon destination.
Do you want to climb Kilimanjaro?
Or visit beautiful beaches in Zanzibar?
How about a hot balloon ride? Walk through coffee plantations while visiting a beautiful waterfall?
Stroll around local markets to buy local art and spices? Meet the Maasai tribe and get to experience their way of living?
There is a great variety of activities to do and places to visit.
Our travel planner will list all the options available and what they entail so that you don’t have to miss out.
Selecting accommodations.
When it comes to choosing accommodations, Tanzania offers a selection of luxury lodges, tented camps, or budget-friendly options.
We will help you with the choosing process by presenting a selection of hotels which matches your budget and requirements
Please let our travel planner know about any dietary restrictions, if any of the clients require special assistance etc as we would like to make sure your stay is as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.
When should you travel to Tanzania?
“What if I miss out on something because I didn’t know it was available?”
The feeling of FOMO, short for the “fear of missing out”, can be strong but that is what we at Massawe
Adventures are ready to help you with.
Going back to our first question about figuring out what you would like to experience, we would like to point out that an important factor in planning your trip is the time of the year when you are able to visit Tanzania since different seasons offer different experiences.
When you give us a timeline to work with, our founder and travel planner, Idda, will help be able to present the events and activities which will be available for you during that particular season.
On the contrary, your vacation time might be flexible and you would like to plan to visit according to, for example, the Great Migration then Idda will be able to design an itinerary according to your request so that you can be assured that you will get the most of your adventure.
At Massawe Adventures we pride ourselves on being able to offer our clients the option to customize their tour itinerary so that it is aligns exactly with their preferences, so go wild with your requests!
