Tanzania

Following the Great Wildebeest Migration

There is nothing more enchanting than the painted skies of Tanzania. The swathes of yellow and red accentuate the elegant fauna on its acacia-dotted horizon.

Home to exceptional family safari and ecotourism experiences, Tanzania also holds a few secret treasures. Dar es Salaam and Zanzibar are meccas for seafaring culture, while Arusha offers refined colonial properties, many converted into luxury lodges from their previous lives as coffee plantations. Tarangire National Park is home to iconic giant baobabs and hundreds of elephant families, and the Selous Game Reserve is one of the most uncrowded wildlife areas on earth.

Ethical travelers interested in socially-responsible tourism can participate in meaningful voluntourism projects in combination with once-in-a-lifetime wildlife safaris. The vast expanses of wilderness in the Serengeti are unmatched, playing host to the "greatest show on earth," the Great Migration, where herds of wildebeest millions strong embark on the continual search for fresh grazing land. If your family is searching for a luxury family safari, visit Tanzania.
