TANZANIA

Tanzania has one of the most friendly populations on Earth...

Safari, Mountain Trekking and Project work in unique, beautiful and wild surroundings

 

The extraordinary physical geography of the country ranges from the dazzling coastline (Indian Ocean), to the central highland plateau (much of which is over 1500m in altitude), to the rugged Great Rift Valley, to vast lakes, mountains, volcanoes and sweeping savannah. Then there is the people... colourful, friendly, inquisitive and always smiling!

All our expeditions feature safaris and mountain trekking whilst longer trips offer valuable project work too. We have a number of sustainable projects in northern Tanzania featuring school refurbishment, teaching and social interaction with the community. You can plan your work, purchase materials locally and employ local tradesmen to assist where necessary. Even with the limited resources available, your efforts will make a real difference to the lives of your local hosts.

Away from your project work, you will experience the wonders of Tanzania’s safari parks - Serengenti, Arusha and Ngorongoro Crater. We complement these wildlife days with mountain trekking on Mount Kilimanjaro and Mount Meru. The legendary Mount Kilimanjaro is visible for miles around, looming large in the clouds. It sets many records – the world’s highest free standing mountain, highest volcano, shortest distance on the planet from a tropical region (savannah) to a polar region (the icecap) and the highest point in Africa. It is a popular goal with our expedition teams and we give you the best chance of reaching the summit (5895m) – a long and slow ascent allowing sufficient time for acclimatisation and rest. Its sister mountain, Mount Meru, is less severe but remains a challenging and beautiful mountain.
