Tanzania! Words just cannot express the beauty of the nature… any attempts to describe seem empty and pale in the face of the splendor and variety of this wilderness. Try to picture peaceful herds of elephants along a riverbank. You are not dreaming, you are in the Tarangire national park! Raise your head and open your eyes and ears: in the Ngorongoro preservation area you can observe 400 species of birds. Lift the head again and Mount Kilimanjaro will catch your eye. Once a myth it is now accessible in six days by the Machame route! Return to the ground in the Serengeti plains. The oldest and without a doubt the most popular of the Tanzanian parks: You will find hundreds of thousands of zebras, gazelles and gnus which migrate annually in search of greener pastures. Elephants, giraffes and elk are in constant movement...
Your tailor made holiday to Tanzania doesn’t only cover natural wildlife. It also includes meeting with unique ethnic groups, like the Maasai, the proud semi-nomadic people. Tanzania is also a place to kick back and relax along the superb beaches of Zanzibar.
Luxury travel or beneath a tent, for a safari between friends or a honeymoon, a trip to Tanzania is a dream come true!

Of coure I loved Fanjove Island... It's quite something to find yourself on an idyllic island that's virtually unheard of and be able to top up your tan under a coconut tree, on a deserted beach.
I spent my days snorkelling, kite surfing and walking - it only takes an hour to walk around the island! A Robinson Crusoe experience, if ever there was! I saw dolphins swimming in the lagoon early in the morning...
There's only one hotel here, which adds an intimate, exclusive feel to the place. But despite it being costly, don't expect the lap of luxury...the luxury here is the pleasure of being alone! It's a stylish eco-lodge built from natural materials that blend in with its beach setting... It's a dream come true.
