Tanzania Safaris Under Canvas

Tanzania is the country that conjures up an aura of mystery, romance and contrast. The plight of many tourists is desperate but filled with hope of seeing the wonders of the world. This dream is realized and fulfilled once a visit is made to either the Ngorongoro Crater, climb the snow capped Mt. Kilimanjaro, visit the Olduvai Gorge - described as the Cradle of Mankind or even photograph hundreds of thousands of wildebeest and Zebras in Serengeti National Park with unshakable resolve to reach the sweet grass across as they plunge into the swollen river and face the flotilla of crocodiles in Mara River.

Note : For a family or a group of 4 people traveling together we assign a private vehicle and the tour can depart at their most convenient day.
