THE TANZANIAN EXPERIENCE

Accommodation from the country.

Staying at the #TarangireTreetops in #Tanzani is a highlight for many of our guests on #safari when visiting the #Tarangire National Park. Each room is designed as a luxury #treehouse, made with local, natural materials and embellished with modern décor. Enjoy plenty of activities or relax at this safari retreat, built around a 700-year-old #baobab tree. #TakimsHolidays

The Rhino Beetle is also one of the #smallfive or #littlefive. Its name is derived from the fact that it has a horn on its head, similar to that of a #rhino. The major difference between these two animals is that the rhino #beetle is harmless to humans even though it may look like a scary little creature. The #rhinobeetle is one of the strongest animals on the planet when compared pound for pound. It can carry 850 times its own weight, while an elephant can carry only 25 times its own weight. #Tanzania #safari #Serengeti #TakimsHolidays

The #antlion is the smallest member of the small five, although it is neither an #ant nor a #lion. They are named antlions because they often feed on ants and the larvae’s behavior is very aggressive, resembling that of a lion. When they become fully grown adults, antlions develop wings and resemble insects like the dragonfly. #TakimsHolidays

#Buffalo #Weavers are amongst the #smallfive species. #Tanzania is one of the very few countries where all three species of this bird can be found! The #BuffaloWeaver often live in large colonies and are fairly easy to spot due to their loud sounds. #TakimsHolidays

The #LeopardTortoise is the biggest species amongst the #smallfive and can live for between 75 to 100 years. The #Leopard #Tortoise can be found in most regions of Eastern #Africa. Typically, adults will reach about 16 inches in size. The reason for their name is due to the gold and black patterns on their shell, which resemble that of a leopard. #TakimsHolidays #safari #Serengeti #Tanzania

We've all heard of the #bigfive, but did you know that #Tanzania provides some great opportunities to spot the #smallfive on #safari? The #ElephantShrew, one of the small five, is an insect eating mammal found only in #Africa. They are very shy and quick, with the ability to jump almost 3 feet high even though an adult will be no more than 12 inches in length. The elephant #shrew is also arguably the cutest of all the #littlefive. #TakimsHolidays

Going through the archives we were taken back in time to 1990 during the early days of the #safari industry. It is great to see all the progress of the safari industry and how we have been able to evolve as a company over the decades. #TakimsHolidays #Tanzania

Our guides have just witnessed some magnificent #migration sightings in central #Serengeti as the #wildebeest herds head south towards the #Ndutu plains. This is a beautiful time to be in the Serengeti. Following the short rains there is plenty of food for the #herbivores and #carnivores! #TakimsHolidays

Nestled like a jewel at the base of the majestic Mount #Kilimanjaro lies a place of adventure and romance. This place is the #HatariLodge, located on the outskirts of #ArushaNationalPark, in the vast plains of the African savannah. This lodge offers unspoiled views of lakes and craters, its magical rain forests, and the 4,566 meter high dormant volcano Mount #Meru, rising elegantly in the background. At the very heart of this #luxury bush hotel, are the traditional farm buildings, which were used by the legendary actor Hardy Krüger, and his former manager, Jim Mallory. #safari #Tanzania #hiddengems #TakimsHolidays

A beautiful start to the new year as we recently had the opportunity to fly over the #snow peak of #kilimanjaro with #meru visible in the background. Located 70 kilometers further west, #mtmeru is the second highest mountain in #Tanzania and is often climbed prior to #mtkilimanjaro for acclimatization purposes. An interesting fact is that Meru used to be higher than Kilimanjaro until the main caldera closapsed 7,800 years ago after which Kilimanjaro took over the status of being the highest peak in #Africa at 5,895 meters above sea level #adventure #sevensummits #mountains #mountaineering #TakimsHolidays
