The East African country of is one of Africa's top safari destinations, and it's easy to see why. Home to wildlife-filled game parks galore (including the famous Serengeti National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater) with those iconic vast open plains, Tanzania is the stuff nature documentaries are made of. In addition to amazing wilderness areas, Tanzania also boasts Africa's tallest mountain, Mount Kilimanjaro, which is a listing on many an adventure traveller's bucket list. Off the coast is the beautiful tropical island of Zanzibar, which lures visitors with its white-sand beaches, clear warm water full of fish and exotic culture - offering a relaxing beach break as a perfect complement to game viewing and mountain climbing.

Thinking about planning a trip to Tanzania? Here are our top five reasons to go on safari in Tanzania to give you a big shot of East African inspiration.

1. Serengeti National Park

Serengeti National Park, in northern Tanzania, is known for its massive annual migration of wildebeest and zebra. Seeking new pasture, the herds move north from their breeding grounds in the grassy southern plains. Many cross the marshy western corridor's crocodile-infested Grumeti River. Others veer northeast to the Lobo Hills, home to black eagles. Black rhinos inhabit the granite outcrops of the Moru Kopjes.

Tanzania's most popular park is its main drawcard - the Serengeti offers the quintessential African safari experience. Picture rolling savanna and grasslands teeming with game - especially during the migration of millions of wildebeest and zebra, one of the world's greatest wildlife spectacles. The best time to see the wildebeest migration in the Serengeti is in June and July, but if you don't manage to visit the park during these months, don't worry! The Serengeti is amazing year round, and you'll still get a chance to see the Big Five.

2. Mount Kilimanjaro

Serengeti National Park, in northern Tanzania, is known for its massive annual migration of wildebeest and zebra. Seeking new pasture, the herds move north from their breeding grounds in the grassy southern plains. Many cross the marshy western corridor's crocodile-infested Grumeti River. Others veer northeast to the Lobo Hills, home to black eagles. Black rhinos inhabit the granite outcrops of the Moru Kopjes.

See the "Roof of Africa" when you climb Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's most famous and tallest peak at nearly 6000 metres above sea level. The dormant volcanic mountain draws climbers from all around the world to ascend its summit, an adventurous multi-day trek that takes in strenuous hiking as well as spectacular scenery. The great thing about climbing Kilimanjaro, one of Africa's best adventure activities, is that you don't need specialized climbing gear or years of climbing experience - just a professional guide, warm hiking clothes and a good level of fitness!

3. Ngorongoro crater

Tanzania's Ngorongoro Crater could be the most compact wildlife venue on the planet. From the first spellbinding glimpse of the crater and the stomach-churning descent down the inner walls, your senses are assaulted by Africa at its most intense.

During a single morning you can easily rack up unforgettable sightings of elephant, rhino, buffalo, lion and leopard.

If this is your first time on safari it can be the perfect choice but aficionados complain that this amazing little "lost world" makes it all too easy

Ol Doinyo Lengai, "Mountain of God" in the Maasai language, is an active volcano located in the Gregory Rift, south of Lake Natron within the Arusha Region of Tanzania.

5. Zanzibar

While Tanzania is amazing for big game safaris, it is also a popular beach safari destination, with the archipelago of Zanzibar, which is less than 60 kilometres off the coast from the mainland in the warm Indian Ocean. Two large islands, Unguja (normally referred to as Zanzibar Island) and Pemba, as well as several smaller islands make up the archipelago. On budget-friendly Zanzibar, there are plenty of gorgeous palm-fringed beaches on which to kick back and relax, amazing snorkelling spots on coral reefs, and sailing trips on traditional dhows.

The Serengeti National Park in Tanzania is one of Africa's great wildernesses, and offers one of the continent's best safari experiences. The world's largest protected grassland, the Serengeti is a made up of vast savanna plains and forests, and teems with wildlife. It's especially well known for its predators - lions, leopards, cheetahs and hyenas - which you have a very good chance of spotting.

Serengeti is spectacular at any time of year but the absolute highlight is the world-famous wildebeest migration, where millions of animals cross from the Serengeti and into the Masai Mara in Kenya, and then return to the Serengeti, followed by predators.

The Serengeti is one of the largest wildlife sanctuary in the world covered an area of 14,763 square kilometers. The spectacular concentration of plain animals found nowhere in the worlds and the annual wildebeest migration. A part from the wildebeest and zebra you can expect to see a large variety of animals, Gazelle, Hippos will be found in their poor at any time of the year. Elephant will be frequently be seen but the population here is migratory.

The Serengeti predators made famous by many films and documentaries include lion, leopard, cheetah and hyena.

The birds of the Serengeti are just as spectacular and varied as the animals; there are several types of Eagles and vultures, Ostrich, secretary birds, kori Bustards, Hornbills as well as a host of small birds. There are almost 500 species of birds recorded in the parks.

Travel to the Serengeti on a budget

The Serengeti is a pretty expensive safari destination, with park fees costing USD $70.80 per person per day, Unlike other parks, such as lake Manyara national park, Tarangire, and Arusha nataional park which is $53.10 per person per day.

If you want to travel to the Serengeti on a budget, the best option is to do an overland trip. We offer a number of budget safaris to the Serengeti where you stay in the park's campsites, such as our epic

What to do on a Serengeti safari

The main thing to do in the Serengeti is see wildlife on game drives! On our Serengeti safaris are done in open-topped 4×4, vehicles, so you can great views once you spot those prides of lions. In between game drives, you can visit a traditional Maasai village and Oldupai Gorge (just south of the park), which is one of the world's most important paleoanthropological sites. If you want to see wildlife from a different perspective, you can also do walking safaris and even wildlife viewing on a horse.

It's certainly not a budget activity, but if you want to make your Serengeti trip even more memorable, you can do a hot air balloon flight over the park and its herds of animals - an incredible experience!

When to go to the Serengeti on safari

You can have amazing wildlife viewings in the Serengeti at any time of year, but if you want to see the Wildebeest migration you need to visit between July and October (the migration happens at slightly different times of year, depending on the rains. Wildebeest calving, a great spectacle to behold, is from January to March. The Serengeti's rainy season is in April and May, but even then the game viewing is superb.

This is a totally unique experience and will remain a 'feather in your cap' for years to come. With about 15, 000 hikersreaching the summit every year, you too can join them in their victory! With experienced guides and professional equipment, you only have your own fears or weaknesses to overcome.

A tip is to walk slowly, thus allowing your body time to acclimatise to the thin mountain air. With temperatures ranging from 10 degrees to 20 degrees Fahrenheit, this is not a comfortable climb, but is doable. Taking you through five different ecosystems and offering you a 'once in a lifetime' view, it is a truly rewarding and exhilarating experience.
Of course a good degree of fitness is required, so previous hiking experience is required. Don't forget to break in your hiking boots and walk with a pack on to get used to some of what you will experience as you climb Africa's highest peak.

There are several different routes that you can climb, so talk to your guide beforehand to decide on what is the best one for you. Below is a map of some of the routes.

At 19,341 feet/5,895 meters, Tanzania 's snow-capped Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest peak in Africa and the world's tallest free-standing mountain. It's also the world's tallest walkable mountain-and what a walk it is. To reach the summit, one must pass through five distinct climate zones ranging from rainforest to alpine desert and eventually glacial Arctic. Although it is possible to climb Mount Kilimanjaro without any specific mountaineering training or equipment, summiting the Roof of Africa is not an easy task.

Plan Your Trip

It is possible to climb Mount Kilimanjaro all year round, but some months are distinctly more comfortable than others. There are two optimum seasons for trekking Kilimanjaro-from January to March, and from June to October.

Between January and March, the weather is cooler and the routes are less crowded. From June to October, the mountain is busier (due to the season coinciding with northern hemisphere summer holidays), but the days are warm and pleasant. It's best to avoid the wetter months of April, May, and November while warm clothing is required at the summit all year round.

Although mountaineering training isn't necessary, a reasonable level of fitness goes a long way on Kilimanjaro. If you're somewhat lacking in this department, you'll want to work on your stamina in the months leading up to your trek. Practice hikes also give you the opportunity to break in your new hiking boots, minimizing the chance of debilitating blisters. Exertion at altitude can affect the body in different ways, so it's a good idea to get a medical check-up before departure. Even the most basic ailments can make your life miserable at 18,000 feet.
