The rich tapestry of Tanzania's past is woven from tales of the slave, spice and ivory traders, who cut passages across the landscape from the rainforests of the Congo, across Lake Victoria, to the island of Zanzibar on the coast. Intrepid adventurers explored Tanganika for its treasures, and it was central to the great colonial Scramble for Africa in the late 19th Century.

Due to its vast size and varied landscape, much of Tanzania's great game fields still remain unfrequented. Undisturbed, you can stand knee deep listening to the gentle hypnotic rhythm of the riverine swamp whilst in the pursuit of Buffalo, and hear the raspy grunt of a leopard coming from up the valley of a dense mountain forest. Tanzania is one of the last places where the wildlife remains untouched and the environment is raw.

Renowned for its exceptional diversity of wildlife and classic overall safari, you will get a feeling of what it was like to be one of the great hunters and explorers of a bygone era. The hunting areas are characterised by grassy wetlands, papyrus choked swamps, brachystegia woodland, mountain forest and sweeping acacia dotted savannah.
