Tanzania has seven official World Heritage Sites and Expect In Africa Safari will take you there on Teeming with diverse wildlife and a spectacular sight. Serengeti is the breathtaking outback venue of the annual migration of millions of wildebeest combined with an evolutionary trip to Olduvai Gorge, Laetoli and the Kondoa Rock Art Cave Sites takes you back to your human origins. Unspoiled remote wildernesses, home to thousands of elephants and bovines, and packs of rare African wild dogs and other diverse predators. Lake Tanganyika is among the most beautiful lakes in the world. Lake Manyara was a personal favorite of Ernest Hemingway. Climb the Kilimanjaro on an uphill strenuous stroll, the highest mountain in Africa, shining in the morning sun above a pedestal of cloud. Trek past its glaciers to the highest peak, or peer into the magma pits of the Mountain of God – Ol Doinyo Lengai by Lake Natron. Silver beaches and limpid seas set off the wonderful Swahili architecture of Stone Town in Zanzibar, important as a significant trading port, a heady blend of cultures and focus of the abolition of slavery. Combine Zanzibar with a history trip to Bagamoyo or even Kilwa to see the ruins of Kisiwani and Songo Mnara. Thereafter, head off to the private island of Fanjove or Lazy Lagoon for an unadulterated beach escape. Find all the fascination of African travel in the inimitable richness of Tanzania.

An authentic and discerning tour of Tanzania with Expect In Africa Safari, providing outstanding examples of sustainable tourism in a country with unbeatable natural resources. Stunning landscapes, spectacular wildlife diversity, and concentration, safari adventures to remember for a lifetime, challenging mountain and active watersports, barefoot beaches and idyllic islands, historical and cultural riches, all wait for you in dream vacation venues where you can relax in luxurious self-indulgence .

Accommodation

,Rivertrees Country Inn Lodge Because Rivertrees grew in stages, each cottage was designed with individual thought and care, and furnished with unique attention. The inn’s design makes the most of the riverine nooks and bends, and clearings in leafy groves, to grant each dwelling its own sense of privacy and peace. The restaurant makes for a relaxing setting for a book and a coffee, or a garden-fresh meal in the sunshine. Winding pathways weave a lazy loop through the spacious grounds, and reveal a sparkling swimming pool and a massage hut for those that enjoy surrendering to relaxation. Sangaiwe Tented Lodge Is situated across forty acres of hillside wooded with beautiful trees, including indigenous African hardwoods.  The local villagers, who’ve entrusted the land to us, have kept it untouched for posterity. Building was done in a fashion to minimize disruption to the environment. The sun heats the hot water for the entire lodge and we’ve landscaped with mostly indigenous plants to minimize water usage. On arrival you’ll be met at our “boma” where you can re-group with a welcome drink and refreshing towel before walking up the hill to reception.  Our large common area comprises reception, bar, dining, lounge and large outdoor viewing patio. Take a dip in our beautiful swimming pool with a view.  Wildlife wanders in and out of the lodge grounds and it’s possible to climb the hill behind the lodge or take a guided nature walk. Endoro Lodge The Lodge is located in the tourist town of Karatu on the Western south Slopes of Ngorongoro Crater at the 1,400 feet above sea level; the Lodge sits in a garden of flowers and vegetables. The property offers spectacular sweeping views of the hills and close distant to the Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Eyasi, Lake Manyara and Tarangire National Park.The warm and cosy rooms overlook the reserve and tropical gardens, the large en-suite bathrooms include WC, shower and wash basins as well as luxurious toiletries. The bedrooms open up to a terrace that is furnished with a table and chairs. An elegantly designed swimming pool is purposely availed at your service for a swim in between the lodge activities with a beautiful view of the tranquil environment, right at the edge of the Ngorongoro in the Karatu highlands. Endoro is an eco-friendly Lodge located along the boundary o f the Ngorongoro Conservation Athority, 5.5 Km from the town of Karatu, 0.5 Km from the Endoro Gate, 20Km from the Ngorongoro Main Gate and 25 Km from the Manyara National Park.Located on the edge of the Northern Highland Forest Reserve, the Forest boasts of over one hundred bird species, as well as resident elephants, buffalo, baboon troops, and the occasional lion. Within a few minutes’ walk of Endoro Lodge, we have Endoro River Nature Trails suitable for hiking, bird watching, animal viewing and plant identification. Perfect for those honeymooners looking for that classy and tranquil with a private luxury touch in the middle of all the wildlife excitement. Kenzan Tented Camp Mobile Tented camps located in the heart of African wilderness gives you endless opportunities to uncover and explore rare beauty. The best of facilities in our tents, expert chefs preparing the ultimate gourmet feasts, lush green landscapes and rich cultures are only few of the many highlights of this incomparably fantastic voyage
