TANZANIA VOTED BEST COUNTRY FOR SAFARI HOLIDAYS

According to a study by online marketplace
website, Safaribookings.com, Tanzania is the
top country for an African safari.
(TRAVPR.COM) UK - June 28th, 2013 - Over
1,000 safari travellers and industry experts
took part in a two year long survey by the
website which gave each country a score out
of five stars in order to create the rankings.
With 4.8 stars Tanzania came out on top,
closely followed by Botswana, Kenya, Zambia
and South Africa.
The study was based on over 2,000 reviews
from safari travellers, many of whom had been
on multiple safaris, as well as nearly 800
reviews from industry experts, including
guidebook writers from Lonely Planet,
Frommer’s and Footprint.
The main reason the country took the top spot
is because it is home to two of the most
famous safari destinations, the Serengeti
National Park and the Ngorongoro
Conservation Area. Both places have a healthy
population of wildlife, meaning visitors will
enjoy excellent game viewing. But there’s a lot
more to Tanzania than just these two places.
The country is incredibly varied, with many
different national parks and conservation areas
as well as some spectacular natural landmarks,
including the towering Mount Kilimanjaro.
“Tanzania is a fascinating and truly diverse
country. Properties are often very remote,
giving guests a real sense of adventure and the
game viewing is superb all over; from the
migration in the famous Serengeti and the
elephants of the Tarangire to the wild dog of
the Selous and the chimps of the lesser known
Mahale Mountains National Park,” said Paul
Hawley, Safari Design Consultant at Africa
Exclusive. “Plus the country’s coastline and the
beaches on Zanzibar are simply beautiful,
perfect for a relaxing break after a Tanzania
safari.”
