Safari Options
Trips can be tailor made according to your travel preferences, the time of year, and what you want to see, so don’t hesitate to let your operator know exactly what you want. While the quality of safaris can vary according to what you’re paying, all visitors should expect the best of their safari team, from competent, well-informed guides to good food and comfortable accommodation. Remember that many of these multiple safari options are available in the same areas and parks, and that what differs is only the level of accommodation, not the wildlife and the scenery that you will see
Safaris in Tanzania have something to offer everyone. Experience the adventure of budget camping or the opulence of luxury camping safaris. Enjoy a truly memorable lodge safari, or take it one step further and go fly camping. Hunting safaris are also possible.

Diving and Snorkelling
Tanzania offers divers world-class reefs and plentiful schools of tropical fish just offshore of popular beaches and secluded locations.
Dive courses are offered at many of the hotels and lodges on the mainland coast as well as Zanzibar, Pemba and Mafia islands, and is a rewarding skill to learn while on holiday, but the surface swimmer need not despair – most of the reefs are accessible to snorkellers and equipment is easily rented from dive shops and lodges.
Diving can be done year-round, but during the rains visibility can be limited.
