Where to Go in Tanzania:
Most travellers visiting Tanzania will arrive firstly in Dar Es Salaam, though be sure to allow for a few days stopover to journey onwards to Zanzibar Island & Stone Town, a 1.5 hour ferry trip away or 30 minute flight from Dar Es Salaam.
For my game drive/safari experience in Tanzania, I made my way to Serengeti National Park in February – right in the midst of baby season and at the beginning of the migration season, with many zebra to be seen already!
Other National Parks that are popular for safari goers are Ruaha National Park and Gambe National Park.
