Tanzania Holiday Accommodation
 |
Tanzania officially the United Republic of Tanzania (Jamhuri ya Muungano wa Tanzania in Swahili), is a country on the east coast of Africa. It is bordered by Kenya and Uganda on the north, Rwanda, Burundi and the Democratic Republic of the Congo on the west, and Zambia, Malawi and Mozambique on the south. To the east it borders the Indian Ocean. The country is named after Tanganyika, its mainland part, and the Zanzibar islands off its east coast. | |
| Tanzania is mountainous in the north-east, where Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's highest peak, is situated. To the north and west are the Great Lakes of Lake Victoria (Africa's largest lake) and Lake Tanganyika. Central Tanzania comprises a large plateau, with plains and arable land. The eastern shore is hot and humid, with the island of Zanzibar lying just offshore. |  |
|
| Tanzania contains many large and ecologically significant wildlife parks, including the famous Serengeti National Park in the north. For those wanting to look at the animals there are loads of National Parks. Where for around US$100 you can gain entry and also benefit from a tour (and perhaps a nights accommodation. The better parks are found in the north of the country while Ruaha National Park is the best in the south. |

|
| Scuba diving in and around Pemba and Zanzibar is a good experience. You can also visit numerous historical Slave Trade sites which make for an interesting, if a little depressing, excursion. Tanzania has some of the best, most unspoilt beaches in the world? White sands, palm trees and the cooling Indian Ocean. The primary attraction in Tanzania, aside from the warm welcome of the people, is the scenery. It is the world in miniature there us everything from lunar looking desert scrub land to tropical rainforest. Stunning! |
