TOURIST SHUTTLE BUS FROM NAIROBI-ARUSHA-MOSHI-MARANGU

Tanzania has one of the largest wild animal populations in the world. To see all of Tanzania’s attractions in one visit would be impossible.

A few of Tanzania's must see attractions are Zanzibar, Mt Kilimanjaro National Park, Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Conservation Area.

Dar es Salaam is Tanzania's premier city and trading centre. Here you will see the colourful Kariakoo Market and clock tower, the government quarters to the north, the National Museum and the Botanical Gardens in the city centre, the Village Museum, which is located 10km from the city centre and Oyster Bay is the city's nearest beach.

Zanzibar, otherwise known as Unguja or Spice Island, is located off Tanzania's East Coast. It has a strong Persian and Arab flavour. Zanzibar's Stone Town is absolutely fascinating with its maze of winding streets lined with whitewashed coral-rag houses with brilliantly carved brass-studded doors. There are also many little shops, bazaars, mosques and courtyards. You will also see two sultans' palaces and cathedrals, not to mention some ancient colonial mansions. Around the island you can find such things as the ruined Maruhhubi Palace, the Mangapwani Caves and various spice and fruit plantations at the island's heart.

Mt Kilimanjaro National Park is one of Africa’s most spectacular sights. An enormous 5895m perfectly shaped volcano, it's the highest peak on the continent. From cultivated farmlands on the lower levels, the mountain rises through lush rainforest to alpine meadow and finally across an infertile lunar landscape to the twin summits. The rainforest is home to many animals including elephant, buffalo, rhino, leopard and monkey.

Serengeti National Park is Tanzania's most famous game park. Here you are able to catch a glimpse of what much of East Africa must have looked like before hunters. On these seemingly endless and almost treeless Serengeti plains are millions of animals. They are always on the move in search of grassland and are watched and preyed upon by their predators. It's probably one of the most incredible sights you will ever encounter. Serengeti is also famous for its lion, cheetah and giraffe populations.

Ngorongoro Conservation Area houses the 600m tall Ngorongoro Crater, where you can see spectacular views. On Ngorongoro’s 20km wide floor you are able to see endless amounts of wildlife, including lions, elephants, rhinos, buffalos, gazelle, zebra and reedbuck, as well as thousands of flamingo wading in the Lake Magadi, the soda lake on the floor of the crater. Local Masai tribespeople have grazing rights here, and you may well come across them tending their cattle.
