A Safari Holiday; The Trip of A Lifetime

When you plan your next holiday, remember that few things live up to the thrill and excitement of spending time with nature. From tangled rainforest to sweeping plains, meandering rivers to mountains and valleys, the landscapes of Africa showcase nature at its finest, and provide the perfect backdrop for the most spectacular animals on earth. Safari – the word itself conjures images of adventure and excitement. It is something everyone should try to experience. To wtnes the vastness and tranquillity of the wilderness, to explore landscapes devoid of man and the sole domain of the animals and birds. 

Tanzania Safari
There are different ways to experience it – on foot, in vehicles, on horse or by boat. There are different styles of accommodation, from temporary and fixed camps to lodges and hotels. Whatever your interests and budget, there is a safari perfect for you.

 Discovering The Best Accommodation For You
 
There are stunning lodges to stay at on safari, some situated within the National Parks and others in areas of wilderness under private conservation. All are en suite, most have swimming pools and most modern conveniences. Others like to stay in permanent camps, large tents built on teak floors and under thatched roves. They have en suite bathrooms and are furnished like an exclusive hotel, some with four-poster beds. You get the comfort of a lodge, with the added excitement of living within canvas walls allowing you to hear the sounds of the bush as you sleep. Others want to get to more remote areas, in which mobile camps – put up for one season only and moved every year – allows you to stay in areas little visited by other travelers.

 A Night Under African Skies
  
Whichever accommodation you choose, all are designed to allow you enjoy the sights, sounds and smells of Africa. On a Tanzania safari you might stay at a lodge perched high on the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater, offering long views over the Crater itself. You can then stay in a camp in the Serengeti, sitting beside a campfire, enjoying a sundowner as millions of stars appear in the sky overhead, a lion roaring in the distance. It is moments like this that make a safari a holiday of a lifetime.
