The reserve is a photographer’s and naturalist’s paradise, with a great elephant, buffalo, giraffe, lion, and cheetah alongside the migratory wildebeest and zebra. Leopards are frequently encountered, endangered black rhinos hide in the dense thickets, and large rafts of hippos and enormous crocodiles are found in the Mara River. The park is also home to over 450 bird species. You shall also visit Masai Village and see how simple the maa people live.
The stone Town, Zanzibar
The Stone Town of Zanzibar is a fine example of the Swahili coastal trading towns of East Africa. It retains its urban fabric and townscape virtually intact and contains many fine buildings that reflect its particular culture, which has brought together and homogenized disparate elements of the cultures of Africa, the Arab region, India, and Europe over more than a millennium.
Prison Island, Tanzania
It is a small island spreading across 5.6 Km. Overcoming its turbulent history, Changuu island has become a must-see jewel of Tanzania with the highlight attraction of being a large home for the tortoises.
