Tanzania Tourist Information Resource
A selection of useful websites relating to Tanzania .
With fewer tourists than neighbouring Kenya (although still with similar problems due to international terrorism), Tanzania is a major safari and holiday destination. The breadth of opportunity offered is tremendous: the intrepid can climb Africa ’s highest mountain, Mt Kilimanjaro, whilst those just wishing to unwind can relax on the island of Zanzibar’s tropical beaches, going swimming with dolphins when sheer leisure just gets too much.
Tanzania’s Rift Valley can lay claim to being the birthplace of humanity, being the site of the discovery of the 1.75-million-year-old homo habilis fossil, and numerous ruins and other archaeological features can well repay an investigation if your inclination is towards the cultural.
For the wildlife enthusiast, some of the world’s largest game reserves can be found in Tanzania, from the famous Serengeti National Park, the other end of the wildebeest migration that begins in Kenya’s Masai Mara, to the Ngorongoro Crater, home to a spectacular collection of pink flamingos, together with every species of predator found in Africa. Finally, for fishing it is difficult to beat Lake Victoria, the second largest lake in the world, with the Indian Ocean a close second.
