Attractions

Overview

Being overshadowed by its northern neighbour has rather worked in Tanzania’s favour. Tourism has developed here more quietly, more thoughtfully, with fewer cheap packages and more personalised experiences. It’s more stable and laid-back, and enormous enough to keep some corners well hidden. But its attractions are anything but low-key: Kilimanjaro, the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, the Maasai, Zanzibar, the Big Five, and of course, the Great Migration, which propels itself around the northern plains throughout the year.

Despite the big names, it’s often the smaller details that remain in the memory – the fiendishly good fusion of Arabic, Swahili and Indian cuisine; an eye opening bushwalk with a Maasai guide; a glimpse of an endangered wild dog in the little-visited south; the silhouette of a dhow at sunset. Our Tanzania travel guide will leave you in no doubt as to why this land has attracted travellers for centuries – and that it will be sure to attract many, many more in the years to come.

It’s hard to compete with the Serengeti, the migration and the Ngorogongoro Crater, but southern Tanzania doesn’t try to. It has its own unique charms. While the wildlife abounds here, the tourists don’t; there are a handful of lodges in the enormous Selous Game Reserve – one of the largest reserves in the world – and even fewer in Ruaha.
