Top 7 things to do in Tanzania

These are the top 7 things to do in Tanzania. There are tours of the Great Migration, walking tours, balloon rides, climbs, and beaches in Zanzibar.

A country of a kind, friendly, and welcoming to all people from different cultures around the world.

Let us take you to Tanzania travel destinations, plan, and together build lasting friendships.

Tanzania invites you into the space and freedom of Africa’s wild places. – travel in open vehicles – get you out on foot – climb the continent’s tallest peak – take you to shaded and peaceful campsites – and show you the joy of quality time with wildlife.

The wildlife viewing is superb, and there is just so much choice. Below are the top 7 things to do in Tanzania

1. Unlimited game viewing

Visit the Tanzania National Parks

Tanzania offers game viewing at the most iconic national parks—beautiful places and wildlife sights seen in Africa. You will experience the animals in their natural habitats, observing them grazing, hunting, or interacting with one another.

The spectacular and world-famous Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Crater, home to the world’s rarest Black Rhinos, are two of the great safari tour destinations. Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara, Nyerere National Park, and many more wildlife destinations offer top experiences.

2. The Great Migration

Wildlife actions on Earth.

The Great Migration is the largest mammal migration on Earth. Often hailed as one of the wonders of the natural world, Africa’s great wildebeest migration is an incredible event to witness.

The annual migration of over 1.5 million traveling ungulates—wildebeest and enormous groups of zebra, Thomson’s gazelle, and Grant’s gazelle—is about an 800-kilometer trek through the Serengeti National Park ecosystem.

The journey begins on the Southern Plain of the Serengeti when wildebeest calves are born. Move clockwise from the south, west, and north and back to the south. Crossing rivers means facing crocodiles, patiently waiting for a kill, or seeing a group of lions collaborating to hunt down a wildebeest, which is an unforgettable sight.

This is one of the best safaris in Serengeti National Park.

3. Guided walking tour

Explore Tanzania’s national parks and game reserves with guided walking trips. Take a relaxing walk and discover the excitement and ancient secrets of the African wilderness.

A guided walking tour is ideal for visitors who prefer outdoor experiences, and in Tanzania, there are many options for walking safaris that offer varying terrains.

Here you will experience a walk in Arusha National Park, which is at the base of Mount Meru and hosts different wild animals and aquatic birds surrounding the lakes.

Other parks are Tarangire, Lake Natron, Lake Eyasi, Selous, West Kilimanjaro, and Gombe to experience chimpanzee life.

4. Balloon safari

A hot-air balloon ride is one of the top Tanzania safari experiences. You’ll be able to see the beauty from every angle.

You can get a glimpse of the landscape from the airplane window, but once you arrive in Tanzania, the balloon is the best way to catch a closer view of the animals, and gives you an especially superb view of the plains.

The balloon launches in the cool of the early morning in the peace of dawn as sunrise unfurls in bright colors. As the Earth warms up, wildlife moves.

After landing, a glorious champagne brunch and a heavy breakfast await you on the savannah. The perfect end to an extraordinary and serene safari experience that’s not easily forgotten.

If you’re planning a trip to Tanzania and would like to experience it, here are the best places to consider

  • Serengeti National Park
  • Ndutu Plain Area
  • Tarangire National Park

5. Climbing Kilimanjaro

The highest mountains in Africa

You can find the highest point in Africa at an elevation of 5,895 meters above sea level. Kilimanjaro is one of the Seven Summits in the world and the world’s tallest freestanding summit.

Anyone from children over the age of 10 to older generations in their 70s can climb and reach the summit.

Climbing is the most exciting thing you will ever do in your life! It is challenging but also immensely rewarding. The real challenge is the altitude and the rate of ascent. All you need is good preparation, determination, and the will to get to the summit.

6. Take a beach tour

on Zanzibar Island

Relax and explore Zanzibar’s best beaches. Enjoy the spectacular sunrises and lush tropical vegetation with spectacular sunsets, palm-fringed beaches, turquoise waters, and colorful coral reefs.

Looking out over the vast ocean and the shimmering turquoise waters dotted with white, triangular sails of the picturesque traditional fishing dhows will take your breath away.
Whether you’re taking a safari trip for some post-safari relaxation or a Zanzibar chilled beach holiday, it is romantic and full of fun when traveling with your loved ones in a lifetime

7. Cultural experiences

Tanzania comprises over 100 tribes that also identify with their ethnic group, living side by side in what has historically been a very peaceful country, which often has distinct languages and cultures.

A unique dance, a local style of music, or a traditional ceremony particular to one tribal group.

The most interesting tribe to visit is the hunter-gatherer people we would refer to as Bushmen or the Hadzabe, who are always happy to share their wealth of knowledge about the bush with you.

It’s a great opportunity to get a real insight into the zoology, geology, and anthropology of the places they call home.

In Tanzania, you can visit Masai, Chaga, Datoga, Wasukuma, Wameru, Wapare, Wanyaturu, Hehe, and many more and experience their culture and traditions, living near them in their village.
