TANZANIA

Whether you are new to luxury safaris or an avid safari-goer, Tanzania will pop up on your adventure radar. A safari mecca populated by the Big Five, Tanzania is the epicentre for the annual Great African Migration of wildebeest and zebra at the Serengeti National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

On your bespoke holiday to Tanzania with WONDERGOLANDER, you’ll witness the country’s most spectacular scenery and wildlife on exceptional day and night game drives accompanied by an expert guide and tracker team. Mind you, some 1.5 million animals migrate between Kenya and Tanzania each year, presenting plenty of National Geographic moments to savour. And with complimentary use of Swarovski Optik binos, your safari life will undoubtedly be sweeter.

When you think you've seen it all, you'll still be tickled by the sight of tree-climbing lions (though bush-crowding might be a better term) and a flamboyance of flamingos clearly not sitting idly by in the Rift Valley.

At the Ngorongoro Crater, marvel at the world's largest collapsed volcanic caldera and one of the most beautiful wildlife havens on earth. Over 25,000 creatures call this precious wildlife sanctuary home. The Ngorongoro Crater is part of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, where you can enjoy encounters with local Maasai and walk in the footsteps of the early men from the Paleolithic period. Admiring ruins and rock art preserved for over 3.5 million years is a tad more rewarding with an expert well-versed in ancient history – that's just how a bespoke holiday to Tanzania rocks.

Flee from the temptation to curl up all day in your pampering lodge or luxury safari camp, you must. Crank up the adrenaline levels with a hot-air balloon ride in the alluring Tanzania wilderness, make a beeline for relaxing wellness treatments, and revel in the gorgeous sundowners or private dinners that are both innovative and sumptuous. There will be opportunities to meet different communities and learn more about the local way of life as well as sustainability or social enterprise initiatives.

After all, your luxury safari and bespoke holiday to Tanzania is an adventure to remember for a lifetime.

Your bespoke holiday to Tanzania in the new travel era

WONDERGOLANDER is currently designing only luxury safari trips to Tanzania, with a minimum of seven nights. This means that you will stay in luxury lodges (4-star levels and above) with all daily scheduled activities and meals included. Lodge rooms typically come with air-conditioning, ensuite flushing toilets, indoor and outdoor showers; some lodges also offer private pools. Facilities in luxury lodges we recommend are modern and safety protocols are strictly adhered to – guests will receive a safety briefing upon check-in.

Luxury safari lodges are typically located within private concession areas and guests travelling in a family or small group enjoy their own game drive vehicle; sometimes couples may share the vehicle with up to four other guests or have the option to privatise their game drive at additional cost. Game viewing is conducted in an ethical manner and there is emphasis on respecting nature and wildlife.

Travel costs have risen significantly due to high demand and limited supply, and pricing fluctuations are not uncommon. For the best perceived value, we recommend trips to Tanzania to be designed at least 6 months in advance, particularly if they involve multi-country destinations in Africa. Last-minute arrangements (120 days and under) may result in high premiums or disappointment, particularly during peak periods.
