Tanzania is home to one of Africa's most magnificent game reserves, namely the Selous Game Reserve and is also the seemingly endless plains of the Serengeti National Park, where one of the world's greatest natural spectacles, the annual migration of some two million wildebeest followed by their predators can be observed. The Serengeti holds some of the largest concentrations of lion, cheetah and leopard in Africa, and is probably the best national game park on the continent to see these predators.
This great country can be explored by land in comfortable 4x4 cars such as Land Rovers or Land Cruisers or by flying into an areaand taking safaris from there. Safaris to may be by vehicle, on foot, on certain reasons on horseback, or even from a balloon. Time on safari can easily be complemented by time on a deserted beach or island before the African Dream comes to an end.
Historical Sites:

These include the Kondoa care painting and the old towns of Kilwa Bagamoyo and Zanzibar stone town. Mikindani is also important since in the 19th Century Mikindani was just as important as Kilwa Kivinje in the Slave trade. It was the end of a caravan route from the Nyasa Lake and along the Ruvuma River. During this time, Mikindani was apart of the Sultan of Zanzibar. In the end of the 19th Century however the trade in slaves reduced and the German colonial Government built a fort or boma which is now a Hotel. Other old buildings still remain within the town as well as the old slave market, built by the Arabs.Mnazi Bay was once the place to pick up dhow transport to Mozambique. Lindi also used to be a caravan route towards Lake Nyasa. It was however not so important, and only shows an Arabic tower from that time. Some of the houses, and the Old Boma, still remind us of the German colonial times, as well as an Old Commissioner´s Residence from the past- gone British times.
