The early morning sunlight shone into the room though the mosquito netting, waking me from my sleep in Tanzania.  I rolled over towards the wall, trying to escape the brightness.  But then I remembered what we were going to do, and I got up.  We were going on a safari! 

Whether you’ve experienced the concept of a safari, or are a newbie, a Tanzanian safari is sure to leave you mesmerized, awestruck with its natural beauty and exotic animals. The country is believed to host some of the best safaris on the planet and its vast untouched national parks are ideal ways of diving into the wild, exploring nature at her best. Here are the five best safari parks in Tanzania - and best times to visit. After all, not all experiences are created the same!

Safari in Tanzania - it's a bucket list dream for most people. What makes it so? Maybe the incredible animal diversity, or the interesting locals. Or maybe it's the chance to get away from one's life, and experience something completely different. Whatever it is, we want to go!
