Why Budget Doesn't Mean Basic
Tanzania on a Budget from Kolkata
Tanzania is arguably Africa's finest all-round destination — a country that combines the world's greatest wildlife reserve (Serengeti), Africa's highest peak (Kilimanjaro), one of the planet's most extraordinary geological features (Ngorongoro Crater), and the idyllic spice island of Zanzibar into a single journey of unmatched richness. The Serengeti stretches for 30,000 km² of golden savanna — home to the Big Five and the northern section of the Great Migration. Zanzibar's Stone Town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Ngorongoro Crater hosts the world's most dense concentration of wildlife. For Indian travellers, Tanzania offers the perfect 'bush to beach' combination — safari followed by Zanzibar's turquoise waters.
