A trip to Tanzania packs in world-famous wildlife, postcard-perfect islands, and raw adventure. You’ve got the classics: the Serengeti's thundering wildebeest herds, the Ngorongoro Crater's Big Five, and Zanzibar’s spice-scented shores. But look beyond the obvious, and you'll find Mafia Island’s coral reefs, Lake Natron’s flamingo-dotted shores, and the quiet beauty of the Usambara Mountains.

With Rough Guides’ tailor-made travel in Tanzania, you don’t have to lift a finger; local experts craft every itinerary around your interests, from spotting lions and climbing Kilimanjaro to just soaking up Swahili culture.

Things to know before your Tanzania trip

What does a trip to Tanzania look like?

Most trips start with a safari, think lions in Tarangire, elephants crossing the Serengeti plains, and rhinos in Ngorongoro. After the wildlife, swap your hiking boots for flip-flops on Zanzibar’s beaches.

But there’s more: dive with whale sharks around Mafia Island, hike through the misty Usambara Mountains, or explore the wild beauty of Ruaha National Park. Every Tanzania itinerary is different, but the best ones mix iconic spots with off-the-radar gems.
