Top Tourist Destinations in Tanzania

One of Tanzania's smallest and often bypassed protected areas, Arusha National Park is more than worth a visit

Its majestic appearance and the fact that it is one of the most accessible high summits draw every year thousands of visitors to the base to conquer its peak

In Tanzania's popular northern circuit, Lake Eyasi and Lake Natron form an ideal highlight for those who wish to escape the majority of the tourists and go off the beaten track

Nestled below the dramatic Rift Valley escarpment, Lake Manyara was flattered by Hemingway as “the loveliest lake I had ever seen in Africa”.

It is the largest intact volcanic caldera in the world and harbors one of the densest large mammal populations found anywhere in Africa

The park is bisected by the Victoria Nile, which plunges 45meters over the remnant rift valley wall, creating the dramatic Murchison Falls, the centerpiece of the park and the final event in an 80kilometers stretch of rapids

erds of up to 300 elephants come to the marshlands or river to quench their thirst, while zebras, wildebeest, impalas, and elands gather around the shrinking lagoons for their treat.
