Tanzania and Zanzibar......
Itinerary
Tanzania is a miniature Africa.
This stunning country contains a kaleidoscope of landscape, wildlife and
people that is infinite in variety. Boundless stretches of savannah are dotted
with herds of game, wildebeast, zebra, gazelle and every other herbivore you
can think of; a lion or cheetah stalking through the tall dry grass; warriors
dancing in the warm hues of sunset; stretches of silver beach fringed with
palms swaying in the warm ocean breeze.
Not surprisingly, nearly a quarter of all of Africa's game is found on the
savannahs of this country, one quarter of which is made up of national parks
and reserves. You'll find that all the statistics point to one overwhelming fact,
Tanzania is a country made for "Safari".
Zanzibar is an exotic land. This "spice island" is a tropical idyll true to its
reputation. Zanzibar town is filled with old historic buildings, and to prove it
there is a story behind each one. Along the east coast there are endless
beautiful beaches and inviting aquamarine waters. Half a day's dhow ride is
the true clove capital of the world - Pemba Island.
With abundant rainfall and rich soil the island is also called Al Kuhdra - the
'green island'. Offshore lies the Pemba Channel blessed by a multitude of fish,
this is recognized by game fishermen as some of the finest waters off the east
coast of Africa.
