Why Travel to Tanzania

News

Tanzania is the perfect destination, for a safari, if you wishto visit Africa, that is Africa proper. What makes Tanzaniaspecial is this is a land with no tribalism; there is noconflict just an inherent love for peace. People are friendlyand welcoming; yes I know every travel book and every travelagency claim that for almost every destination around the world.However, I have lived in many countries in Africa and havetraveled to many more countries outside Africa; I can statefirst hand that the people of Tanzania are the friendliest Ihave met anywhere. Tanzania is home to 125 ethnic groups bound together by a commonlanguage; Swahili. This was the achievement of the firstpresident of Tanzania Julius Nyerere. The Swahili language boundthe country together into a single identity. This has helped tomake Tanzania the personification of the peaceful and friendlydestination. Tanzania, since independence has known that the National Parksare a vital part of its future. The government has thereforelooked after this lovely country and kept it pristine andunspoiled for the visitors who venture into this corner of EastAfrica. Over 28% of the land, over one million square kilometers is setaside as forty-eight National Parks and Game Reserves. There arealso numerous Marine Reserves along the coast line that offersome of the best diving in the world. The beaches are white; thecoast is exotic and spiced with a rich history. Lodges and beds are strictly regulated in the game parks. Thisspares the tourist the disappointment of having

several carssurrounding every lion kill; here in Tanzania you trulyexperience the wildness of Africa. In sub-Sahara Africa Tanzaniais without rival. The parks and reserves here contain thelargest concentration of animals found anywhere in the world.Including the wildebeest migration the world's last remaininggreat migration. Humans - especially tourists flock together. This displaymanifests in the game parks; most people wanting to be in theSerengeti and almost everyone concentrating in one area - theCentral Serengeti. The Serengeti is huge yet most tourists areconcentrated into one area on this vast park. Plan your safaricarefully; look for an operator who is interested in more thanmaking a quick profit out of a dull safari itinerary. There are other National Parks here with high concentrations ofanimals that boast just one lodge. Imagine that; a whole sliceof Africa all to yourself. I doubt you could find that in Kenya,well maybe in the north of the country but Kenya has troublesomeneighbors and northern Kenya although wonderfully wild is alsonotoriously unsafe. The place to have the true out of Africa experience is Tanzania.It has the parks, it has the animals in huge numbers and it hasthe peace and security that no other African Country can offer.If you want a safari, a proper safari than Tanzania is the onlyreal option.
