The most popular things that Tanzania may be associated with are the snow-white sandy beaches, amazingly beautiful underwater world, numerous national parks, interesting tours and, of course, safari - the “gem” of the tourist attractions of the country.
Even though the local inhabitants are very friendly, smiling and helpful, it’s not recommended for travelers to move away from the main streets of the cities in order to avoid being robbed. Also you should better not carry a big amount of money and avoid wearing expensive gold jewelry or visiting the empty unknown streets especially at the nighttime. It’s better for you to leave the precious things, including your passport and airplane tickets in your hotel, and carrying a copy of your passport while walking around the city instead.
As 38% of the territory of the country consists of protected lands, the wildlife here is very diverse and contains a huge variety of animal species that annually attract thousands of tourists and lovers of “extreme tours” from the whole world. Tanzania contains 16 national parks, including the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Gombe Stream National Park, Serengeti National Park, Lake Manyara National Park and, of course, Mount Kilimanjaro, which is the highest mountain of Africa and so on.
The most popular souvenirs to bring home from Tanzania are masks, statuettes or figures made of ebony, leather, malachite or glass beads, various baskets, drums and, of course, coffee.
