Tanzania in Africa - Travel Tips

Author: Gerald Crawford

Tanzania boasts some of the most famous tourist attractions in Africa. Home to Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa; the Serengeti plains with its spectacular migration; the perfect Ngorongoro Crater, described by some to as the world's eighth wonder; and the exotic spice islands of Zanzibar, Tanzania offers incredible cultural tourism, beach holidays, game hunting, historical tours and certainly the best wildlife photographic safaris on the continent.

Tourist Attractions You Must See

Port Louis All over:
In Moroni, the Mosquée du Vendredi provides an attractive view from the top.

Domaine Du Chasseur:
Near Moroni, the largest, live volcano in the southern hemisphere; you can hike up it and descend into the crater; beaches are a mixture of black lava and white sand.

Souillac and Gris-Gris:

Floreal Square Small island:
Off the coast of Mwali; Part of a marine reserve where you can watch green sea turtles, which were almost extinct a couple of years ago.

Grand Baie:
3 French islands, ringed with coral reefs; popular for diving, boating, big-game fishing and other water sports; the lagoon is claimed to be the biggest in the world; old fortifications at Dzaoudzi.

Blue Bay:
11 km south of Moroni, known for its wood carving industry, specialising in producing decorative doors, shutters, boxes and furnishings; many tombstones can be found.

Iles Aux Cerfs:
Currently out of bounds, but offers 17th century houses, mosques and a citadel in Mutsamudu; the Sultan's Palace, the Dziancoundré Waterfall, Chiroroni beaches and coral reefs, Bamboa ylang-ylang distillery and Domoni's Hari ya Moudji, which is full of decaying sultan's palaces from 16th-18th centuries.
