T
anzania has lots to offer the adventurous family. We have plentiful game viewing opportunities: Tarangire National Park, renowned for its elephant population; Lake Manyara where you may spot the famous tree-climbing lions; and a full day in Ngorongoro Conservation Area, spent within the steep-sided crater, a natural enclosure to one of the greatest abundances of wildlife in Africa. We have an opportunity to take a cultural tour, discovering the different tribes who have settled together, whilst walking through farming villages and meeting local craftsmen. A highlight of this trip is a daywalk on Africa's tallest mountain, Mount Kilimanjaro. After all that adventure we head to the island of Zanzibar, were we can explore the bustling streets of Stone Town and relax by the crystal blue sea.

TRIP TRIVIA
'Kilimanjaro' - the most popular theory about the origin of the name is that it came from Kilma Njaro meaning 'Shining Mountain' in Swahili. The shining snow and ice on the peak led locals to believe that evil spirits guarded the mountain.
