You will only have to reach the first destination from Europe or US and make connections to the rest of the country with these cheap flights. After landing you will feel like you are in a documentary surrounded by the largest wildlife in the world.
Animals such as wildebeests, monkeys, antelopes, lions, leopards, crocodiles, gazelles, flamingos… gather in this country to give rise to unique landscapes on the plains of Tanzania. If you want something different after visiting the Tanzanian plain, you can visit the island of Zanzibar , you will be surprised by the Persian bath waters.
If we want to travel to Tanzania, it is important to set the dates well, both to avoid excessive heat and to see the flora and fauna in all their splendor. The travel months are January and February and May to October because the temperatures do not lead to reaching such heights and things can be seen better without so much heat. Despite the high temperatures, rain can make an appearance, so it is important to wear appropriate rain gear and, for example, carry a raincoat in your backpack.
What to see in Tanzania
In the previous paragraph we have told you something about what you can find in Tanzania. If we visit Tanzania we cannot miss visiting the Kilimanjaro National Park , located in the northwest of the country. Amid the heat and dryness of the country, this volcanic mountain rises with its snow-covered peak of almost 6,000 meters.
If you go up the mountain routes you can see for yourself how the vegetation changes and the tropical jungle gives way to alpine vegetation in the high areas. The country’s fauna once again becomes important on Kilimanjaro, and in the tropical zone it is possible to see different wildlife include monkeys.
Another place we have to visit is the Serengeti National Park , the largest nature reserve in Tanzania. This park, away from the hands of poachers, shows a group of animals inside that is unique in the world. The wildebeest is the most important animal among all those that make up this National Park. Although the lion, the leopard or the giraffes are no less so.
Finally we can go to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area , formed by a crater more than 20 km wide and 600 meters high. Although fewer animals remain, the lion, rhino, the elephant, the buffalo and some other herbivores continue to live in this crater. In fact we can even find a lake inside the crater full of flamingos.
