Well, we have prepared this information for you to take out your worries. In this guide, we focus on the tips and insights that will help you make the most of your time and money.

Tanzania’s national parks are home to the Big Five, the Big Cats, the African buffalo, and the African elephant. Tanzania is also one of the best locations in East Africa to see the annual migration of wildebeest that sees two million wildebeest and gazelles pass through the national parks.

The leopard stalks its prey with incredible stealth, probably the most trendy of all the big cats and most elusive big cat, sometimes getting as close as ten feet from its target, undetected, before pouncing. Leopards also drag their kills up into the forest where they sleep and relax, known for their arboreal lifestyle. Leopards have been seen dragging about twenty feet up trees of animals as large as three times their height.
