  • TANZANIA, THE ICONIC AFRICA
     
    Can there be an African image more iconic than Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest elevation on the continent and the highest autonomous mountain in the world? Perhaps the infinite Serengeti, one of the oldest ecosystems, every year hosting the largest migratory movement of mammals on the planet, the Great Migration. Or the historic and idyllic island of Unguja, better known as Zanzibar, the most precise definition of paradise in the Indian Ocean.
     
    Tanzania is Kilimanjaro, but also Mount Meru, one of the best scalable mountains in Africa. It is the spectacular and well-known Northern Safari Circuit, composed of the famous Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara and Tarangire parks. But it is also the Southern Circuit, with lesser known, less crowded and equally spectacular parks: Selous, Ruaha, Udzungwa and Mikumi. Vast continental Tanzania, formerly Tanganyika, joined Zanzibar to form independent Tanzania in 1964.
     
    Zanzibar is actually an archipelago, not just the famous island. The archipelago that holds many ecological secrets and treasures, such as the islands of Pemba and Mafia. And beyond the blessed coast, Tanzania has in its domain no less than the three largest lakes in Africa: Victoria, Tanganyika and Nyasa. For those looking for African icons, and for those who prefer secret destinations, Tanzania has endless reasons to deserve your visit.
