Tips on exploring the south
Tips on visiting the Ngorongoro Crater
“Some people think the crater can be overrated, but really that’s to do with having the wrong expectations. Some people go in there and aren’t expecting the hundreds and hundreds of vehicles – so they can be disappointed, as they’re up against a lot of other people seeing the wildlife. But it’s down to the guides as well. If our guides go into the crater and see a huddle of cars around a leopard, they won’t go there. But most other guides will join the fray –which in my opinion is a horrible experience. So you have to understand that the crater is actually quite busy.”
Tips on how to climb Kili - successfully
Andrew Appleyard, from our supplier Exodus, on being prepared for the mountain:“I’ve seen plenty of tears before bedtime on the mountain, sometimes the person who you don’t think is going to make it to the top walks up there with the greatest of ease, and sometimes the fittest person is the one who’s struggling. Altitude sickness is a complete unknown. But if you do a longer route and have longer to acclimatise, your success rates are higher. My top tip is that if you’re going to do it, do not scrimp on cost. Don’t try and carry tons of your own gear so that you can cut down on porters; it’s just not worth it. There were 11 in our group – I took ten of those to the summit. The other group on the mountain had 19 people – and only three made it. They told us they came up too quickly, they had altitude sickness, they didn’t eat enough food, ran out of water… a whole load of things."

Tanzania tips from our travelers
We have selected some of the most useful Tanzania travel tips that our guests have provided over the years to help you make the very most of your vacation - and the space inside your suitcase.


"We booked the six day camping safari followed by four days on the beach which worked really well as we spent long days on safari, getting up at 6.30am every day - so the relaxation time at the end was very welcome." - Nicola Wilks
"Be prepared for the train trip! First class in Tanzania railways is not the same as UK first class. It's a bit of a culture shock, especially the toilets. Take snacks too! Take a pack of pencils - if you go to the Massai village the children really appreciate them." – Michael Moulsley


"Research, research, research and find the right safari for you. Get exact information/itineraries. check all prices and facts… it is worth talking personally to operators, rather than relying online." - Sally Moir
"Aim to enjoy every part of the vacation, whether it is the flight in a prop plane and landing on an air strip with elephants and giraffes standing to on either side, or hundreds of hairy caterpillars in procession. Big or small, take it all in and enjoy watching and listening. The animals will be doing something different every time you see them and remember that it is a privilege to be in their environment. Don't worry about dressing up for travel or evening meals, and forget make-up and hair styling too. I would also recommend taking a travel washing line and biodegradable washing liquid – clothes dry quickly. And ladies, wear a sports bra... " - Joanne Davenport
