Time to plan your trip to Tanzania, and your dream is to include something "different" in your itinerary... something unique that will amaze your friends and family, wheter they're traveling with you or just enjoy stories and pictures later.
Paka Adventures' safari specialists have selected for you something interesting! Let's have a look together...
Balloon Safari
The hot-air balloon safari is probably the most unforgettable and exciting experience that you can try during a safari in Tanzania: just after sunset, your driver will come to pick you up at the lodge or tented camp where you have spent the night and will drive you to the balloon site. Here you will meet the pilot and get ready to start the flight. After the take-off, the wind will drive you to discover breathtaking landscapes and to watch the fauna in their natural habitat from a unique perspective. After landing you will celebrate the flight with the traditional champagne toast and enjoy a full English breakfast under the acacia trees. The most popular balloon safari in Tanzania is the flight over Serengeti and it is recommended especially during the period of the Great Migration.
Biking Safari
Bikers cannot loose the opportunity to join the amazing itineraries lasting one or more days, discovering the amazing rural area of Northern Tanzania by bike. Cycling is an uncommon way of travelling for tourist in this country, but offers the chance not just to visit some of the most authentic and less touristic areas but also to experience directly the local culture and lifestyle.
Railway Adventure
Not everybody know, but it is as well possible to cross Tanzania by train! Of course, this is something for the most adventurous travelers... but if have this kind of attitude, why not? Tazara is the railway line that connects Dar es Salaam to Zambia and offers weekly travels that stop in many Tanzanian small towns. Travelling by train in Tanzania is a unique experience, but a big quantity of patience and ability to adapt is required, as unforeseen events might happen everyday. For people looking for a luxury experience, but still fascinated by trains, we recommend instead to check Rovos Rail, that offers extraordinary itineraries around Africa including stopovers in Tanzania.
Unique Accommodations
If the plan is to stick to a classic classic itinerary and just add a special touch to your holiday, we suggest to try one of the "non standard" accommodations available around the country. A special mention goes to the "underwater room" of Manta Resort in Pemba, a real undersea room in the Indian Ocean that offers a magnificent view on the marine life. Instead, if you prefer a "outdoor" option, we recommend the new tree-top room in the Rubondo Island Camp (www.asiliaafrica.com) or - if you prefer to visit the most classic Northern Circuit - the Tarangire Treetops Camp (www.elewanacollection.com).
Have a good trip!
