Lauren from Washington celebrated a special birthday in Tanzania
Dear Julia, I wanted to send a personal note of thanks for making my 40th birthday one of the most memorable experiences of my life. On my return flight, I had a lot of time to marvel on the fact that you managed to make the experience so very personal and to my liking. This felt exceptionally special. I can’t say enough wonderful things about my trip and I’ll definitely be in touch again when I’m ready to plan my next African safari adventure!

Generally, when planning a safari through Tanzania it is important to remember a couple of points relating to the ‘status’ of land protection. In Tanzania, ‘National Park’ status demands the highest protection to an area, and although there are odd instances where different rules may apply, in the main you will be restricted to on-road driving during the day. Walking will be limited and night drives will not be available. Game Reserves offer slightly less protection to the environment and, historically, were the areas in which hunting safaris took place. Today, some game reserves such as the Selous, have non-hunting designated areas where photographic safaris take place. Walking will be available and, in some instances, so too will night drives or river safaris. Conservation Areas offer the least protection and it is normal for there to be human settlement within the area, here the Conservation status is in place purely to restrict ‘mass development’.
