Tanzania: Kilimanjaro and Serengeti

Tanzania, in East Africa, is home to Mount Kilimanjaro (Africa's highest peak), the Serengeti ecosystem, and Zanzibar's spice islands. With stable governance and incredible natural beauty, Tanzania is a premier safari and trekking destination.

The Serengeti-Ngorongoro ecosystem hosts the Great Migration, Earth's largest animal migration. Mount Kilimanjaro attracts trekkers worldwide seeking to summit the snow-capped peak near the equator. Zanzibar's Stone Town reflects centuries of Arab, Persian, Indian, and European influences in its architecture and culture.

Tanzania was formed by uniting Tanganyika and Zanzibar in 1964. Swahili, originating from the Tanzanian coast, is East Africa's lingua franca. Despite poverty, Tanzania maintains peace and stability rare in the region. Julius Nyerere, the founding father, emphasized African socialism (Ujamaa) and unity.
