Luxury Safaris in Tanzania

Mountain, savannah, river, reef. Wild scenes swing from one improbable extreme to another in a land extending from the plunging depths of Lake Tanganyika to the giddy heights of Mount Kilimanjaro, with so much wildlife in between. Rhinos roam the basin of the Ngorongoro Crater, lions stalk giraffes in remote Ruaha National Park, and vast herds of wildebeest and zebra perform their annual migration, circuiting the kopje-strewn plains of the Serengeti.

More than 120 different languages can be heard across a landscape as diverse as its population. Maasai manyatta huts huddle on volcanic slopes, Hadza hunter-gatherers harvest honey from baobabs in the basin of Lake Eyasi, and Swahili sailors repair wooden dhows along the white-sand coastlines of islands with names as irresistible as the heady spices traded by their ancestors. In this land of many guises, no scene, no sound, no spectacle is ever the same.
