Known for the legendary wild beast migration: the greatest animal show staged on the planet: Tanzania is a perfect choice for an action packed vacation. The magnetic power of the Great Migration (in which approximately 2.5 millions of mammals fill the air of vast Serengeti Savannah with dust by marching towards Massai Mara in search of fresh water and pasture), the amazing panorama of the Great Rift Valley of Ngorongoro Crater, the unfenced predators in African National Parks, the majestic views of mount Kilimanjaro, are some of the highlighted draw cards that allure the visitors from overseas. Camping in a permanent tented camp in Tanzanian National Park is an awe-inspiring experience. It is challenging, but life changing. Just imagine there is only a tent between you and the African lion at the dead of a night. How would you feel? This must be a lifetime experience. May it be game viewing, or mountain climbing or escaping to Zanzibar for beach relaxation, there is no place on earth like Tanzania. Give your vacation a great meaning by exploring this majestic land.

This is a honeymoon (easy to hunt) period for the crocodile in Grumeti River and other carnivores such as lion and leopard while the migration is taking place.
