AFRICANMECCA SAFARI TRIP IDEAS & EXPERIENCES FOR TANZANIA

The most obvious theme for a safari in the inspiring wilderness of Tanzania is to track and observe the fantastic wildlife. The safari expert company to provide you with a wholesome and distinct travel in Tanzania to match your dream is AfricanMecca. Our highly skilled and knowledgeable guide in a customized 4x4 game viewing vehicle will take you on your trip to the wildlife scenes you most want to see, whether your destination is the Serengeti Plains where you can follow the Great Migration of over a million wildebeests, antelopes and zebras, or trek to observe chimpanzees in the forests of Gombe and Mahale.

You may prefer a tour to Tarangire to visit the great elephant herds or the track down the tree-climbing lions of Manyara. You can choose to visit as many different outback attractions as you wish in a customized and private vacation such as boating and fishing along the Rufiji River in Selous, exclusively guided safari, walking and fly camping in simple, eco-friendly tents, or savoring the extreme luxury of Colonial style canvas camps, lodges or super-sophisticated private villas. Whatever your budget or inclination, AfricanMecca Safaris has the expertise and enthusiasm to satisfy your wildest Tanzanian safari fantasies.



You may want an adventure holiday, climbing on Mount Kilimanjaro or Mount Meru, horse riding, hiking or sharing the lives of indigenous Hadzabe people by Lake Eyasi, learning about their history and culture, or visiting their sacred places with their wonderful rock paintings, joining tribal Maasai dances and ceremonies, and sharing the beautiful craft work of the Swahili coastal people.

African vacations can be adapted for special interest groups who prefer a photographic safari with personal training in techniques to film the amazing fauna, flora and geology, from the riverine birds of Ruaha to the blood-chilling crocodiles and hippopotami of Katavi.

A tour of the northern, eastern, southern and western circuit rewards you with hundreds of spectacular bird species, from riverside fish eagles to grassland ostriches and kori bustards, as well as brilliant sun and weaver birds. Leopards, cheetahs, rhinos and other endangered wide-ranging mammals like the African wild dogs have room to move in Selous where game-tracking trips take you through the pristine African wilderness.

Families find wonderful safari places to bond and make memories for an unforgettable holiday in Tanzania. There is the opportunity to learn Maa or the Swahili language and songs, to play Bao, make a bow and arrow with a Maasai warrior, to learn tracking techniques, or visit the home of prehistoric man at Laetoli and Olduvai Gorge.



For a dream nuptial experience, you can also opt to get married on safari in Tanzania. There is a choice of secluded beach houses for honeymooners at Saadani or Rubondo Lake Victoria, close by lush jungle waterways, tree houses beside stunning Lake Manyara or the amidst the baobabs of Tarangire, a Rococo chateau overlooking Ngorongoro Crater or in the highlands, or even a hot air balloon ride over the vast plains with a champagne breakfast.

Ngorongoro is a breathtaking safari destination with a spectacular central Magadi salt lake and a wide range of wild animals. The UNESCO World Heritage site is famed as the largest unbroken caldera in the world, were even the rare black rhinoceroses are safe. Lake Tanganyika offers secluded private escapes on islands like Lupita, reached by plane and boat, with over 250 species of brightly colored cichlid fish, while the Indian Ocean on the east coast provides beach holiday opportunities for PADI diving and snorkeling on coral reefs around Pemba, Mafia, Fanjove and Zanzibar Islands.

Deep sea fishing for marlin, yellow-fin tuna, sailfish, barracuda and wahoo are also popular outdoor trip pursuits here. Beachfront vacations on the soft, silver shores of Tanzania’s coastline and islands also hold out the prospect of watching baby turtles hatching by the dozen and staggering towards the sea.

If you cannot decide between a beach or safari wilderness, in luxury or Spartan surroundings, as a cultural experience or a demanding adventure, for game-viewing, bird-watching, fly-camping, riding, biking, walking, boating, or flying: you don’t have to. Consult AfricanMecca Safaris who can design the best Tanzania bush and beach safari combination for you.



There are so many choices of activity and destination that you will want to return to spend your vacationing time in Tanzania again and again, to sample the varied delights of a bush walking or a riding tour by horse or mountain bike through the magnificent scenery, and get close to the delightful wildlife of the Great Rift Valley that crosses Eastern Africa.

Canoe peacefully among pink flamingos on the green waters of the Momella Lakes at the foothills of Mount Meru in Arusha National Park. Follow the migration in Serengeti or walk in wilderness with a native guide and sleep under the African moon, with only a mosquito net between you and the creatures of the night, like the bizarre porcupine, the wide-eyed bush baby or the prehistoric aardvark.

Perhaps the most fascinating luxury escapades in Tanzania are spent farthest from everyday life, in the remote boutique accommodations of the private concessions e.g. Grumeti Reserves where you are spoiled rotten with every indulgence. Perhaps you will go back in time to the haunting ambience of a Colonial camping expedition with everything provided from a yesteryear bucket shower to a personal butler, and dinner by a blazing campfire under a glittering canopy of stars.
