Tanzania, located in East Africa, is home to a large collection of impressive attractions, some of which are human-made and others incredible, naturally-occurring phenomena. Tourists would do well to start in Dar Es Salaam, a city in Tanzania with rich historical sites, such as the Kariakoo Market, a popular site for shopping since establishment back in 1974, and the Askari Monument, which acts as a memorial for the brave soldiers who lost their lives during the first World War. Another spectacular destination for newcomers to Tanzania is Bongoyo Island, the most popular of four islands, particularly for snorkeling and sunbathing. It is reachable by private boat or ferry. Although there are many engaging locations to visit in Tanzania, none are as breathtaking as the Great Migration, a spectacle of over one million wildebeest, zebra, gazelle, cheetah, and more. It is truly a once in a lifetime experience.

Although Tanzania is an excellent place to stay, the next destination offers a hiking route known world-wide.
