Tanzania

1st Visit

Our overland group travelled from Kenya to Snake Park, near Arusha in time for a wild New Years party. We celebrated the start of a new year by visiting the outstanding Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater. A boat then took us from the capital Dar es Salaam to the island of Zanzibar; an autonomous state. The spice tour was informative and the sea food delicious. We returned to the capital and we made our goodbyes to the overland group we had travelled with for 3 months. A 23-hour train journey took us from the capital to a point where we could cross to Malawi. En route the train passed through the vast Selous game reserve and we spotted animals such as giraffes and zebras as we enjoyed our meal in the dining car.
