Already clued up on all you need to know about Tanzania? Let’s talk about Lake Manyara National Park. Firstly, it’s highly underrated; it often gets treated as a quick stopover between Arusha and the bigger-name parks like Ngorongoro and Serengeti. People spend half a day here, tick it off the list, and move on. Which […]
If you’re planning a Tanzanian safari itinerary, you’ll see Ngorongoro Crater on pretty much every itinerary. And for good reason – it’s genuinely one of the most extraordinary wildlife destinations on the planet. Not just in Tanzania or Africa, but anywhere. The crater is a collapsed volcanic caldera that’s created this massive natural amphitheatre, roughly […]
There are plenty of fun things to do in Zanzibar that don’t involve sunbathing on the beach and drinking cocktails (though that’s fine too). The island’s surrounded by some of the clearest, warmest water you’ll find anywhere, with incredible marine life, coral reefs, and conditions perfect for pretty much every water sport you can think […]
Zanzibar’s landscapes are stunning – that’s not exactly news. The island’s reputation for pristine white sand, where turquoise beaches meet rich culture is well deserved. But if you’ve done any research, you’ve probably seen photos of the same beaches over and over: Nungwi, Kendwa, Paje. These are gorgeous, absolutely, but they’re also absolutely rammed with […]
There are many different Kilimanjaro climbing routes, but did you also know there are different ways to approach your own climb? When you’re planning to climb Kilimanjaro, one of the first decisions you’ll face is whether to join a group trek or book a private climb. Both options get you to the summit, but the […]
One of the first questions people ask when they’re preparing for a Mount Kilimanjaro climb is whether they’re actually fit enough to do it. It’s a fair concern – you’re talking about summiting Africa’s highest mountain at nearly 6,000 metres. That sounds intense. But here’s the thing that surprises most people: you don’t need to […]

The Serengeti’s one of those rare places that actually lives up to the hype. Endless plains, massive wildlife populations, the Great Migration – it’s not marketing exaggeration, it genuinely delivers. But it’s also vast, complex, and visiting without proper understanding means you might miss the best bits entirely. Here’s what you actually need to know. […]
You’re planning a Tanzanian safari. Brilliant. Now comes the question that’ll significantly affect both your experience and your budget: private or group? It’s not a straightforward decision, and anyone telling you one option is definitively “better” is probably trying to sell you something. Both work. Both have genuine advantages. The right choice depends entirely on […]
Zanzibar’s got about 25 different beaches spread around the island, and the quality varies enormously. Some are absolutely stunning. Others are fine but nothing special. A few are genuinely disappointing once you factor in seaweed, tides, and crowds. Here’s the honest rundown of the beaches actually worth your time. Nungwi Beach Up on the northern […]
Zanzibar’s one of those places where you could feasibly spend a week doing absolutely nothing but lying on a beach, or pack two weeks solid with activities and still feel like you’ve barely scratched the surface. So how long do you actually need? Depends entirely on what you’re after, honestly. But let’s break down what […]
Choosing your route up Kilimanjaro isn’t like picking a trail for a weekend hike. The route you take massively affects your chances of actually making it to the summit, how much you’ll suffer with altitude sickness, what you’ll see along the way, and how much you’ll enjoy the experience overall. There are seven established routes […]
Standing in Tanzania and Kenya respectively, these two giants dominate East Africa’s skyline. And if you’re trying to decide between them for your next climbing adventure, you’re probably wondering which one’s actually worth your time and effort. Both are incredible mountains. Both offer proper challenges. But they’re surprisingly different experiences once you get beyond the […]
Planning a safari in Tanzania is exciting. It’s the kind of trip that stays with you long after you’ve returned home. But before you find yourself watching elephants move silently through the trees or lions warming themselves at sunrise, there’s a crucial decision to make: who will guide your safari? Choosing the right operator can […]
Planning your first Tanzanian safari is a little like opening the door to another world. Suddenly the names you’ve only ever read about – Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire – aren’t just places on a map. They become real, living landscapes filled with lions, elephants, flamingos, and endless horizons. But before you find yourself watching a sunrise […]
Zanzibar sits just off the coast of mainland Tanzania, close enough that you can see it from Dar es Salaam on a clear day, yet far enough to feel like a world of its own. The moment you arrive, everything shifts – the pace slows, the air warms, and the island’s blend of culture, spice, […]
Zanzibar has a way of slowing life down the moment you arrive. Warm breezes, turquoise water, spices in the air, and sunsets you’ll remember for years – it’s the kind of place where you can lose track of time without even trying. But before you step onto those beaches or wander through Stone Town’s narrow […]
Mount Kilimanjaro has a way of capturing the imagination. Maybe it’s the snow-capped summit rising above the Tanzanian plains, or the idea that ordinary people can stand on the roof of Africa without needing to be mountaineers. But with that fascination comes plenty of myths – stories passed around campfires, exaggerated tales from friends of […]
Mount Kilimanjaro isn’t just a mountain – it’s a journey through entire worlds stacked on top of each other. Few places on Earth allow you to walk from humid rainforest to arctic desert in less than a week, yet that’s exactly what happens as you ascend Africa’s highest peak. It’s one of the reasons the […]
Tanzania doesn’t really do half measures. It’s a country of extremes – snow-capped peaks and baking savannahs, ancient cultures and futuristic lodges, chaos and calm coexisting in perfect rhythm. It’s also one of those rare places that can completely rewire your sense of scale. Everything feels bigger here: the landscapes, the wildlife, the sky. If […]
You can’t truly know a country until you’ve tasted it. Tanzania might be famous for its safaris and beaches, but its food deserves just as much attention. Tanzanian cuisine is a melting pot – Arab, Indian, Portuguese, Swahili, African – all simmering together into something rich, spicy, and endlessly comforting. It’s food made for sharing, […]
There are few places that embody paradise quite like Zanzibar. Think glass-clear water, coconut palms swaying lazily in the wind, and sunsets that make you stop mid-conversation. But if you’re trying to plan your trip, one question inevitably pops up: when’s the best time to visit Zanzibar? Truth is, there isn’t just one answer. Zanzibar […]
There’s something almost mythical about Zanzibar. Even the name sounds like an invitation – warm turquoise waters, spice-scented air, and white-sand beaches that look like they’ve been edited by nature itself. But before booking flights or scrolling through endless resort photos, most travellers ask the same question: is Zanzibar safe? It’s a fair one – […]
Mount Kilimanjaro is one of those names that gets whispered with a mix of awe and curiosity. People imagine snow on the roof of Africa, long trails through the clouds, and that triumphant photo at Uhuru Peak with the sun rising behind you. But here’s the thing – before you can dream about the view […]
Mount Kilimanjaro isn’t just Africa’s tallest mountain – it’s a test of endurance, patience, and mindset. When people ask how long does it take to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, they’re really asking something bigger: how much time does it take for your body to adapt to the mountain’s thin air, and how long can your spirit […]
