TOURISM: Can be defined as the act of travel for the purpose of recreation, and the provision of services for this act. A tourist is someone who travels at least
eighty kilometers (fifty miles) from home for the purpose of recreation, as defined by the World Tourism Organization (a United Nations body).
A more comprehensive definition would be that tourism is a service industry, comprising a number of tangible and intangible components. The tangible elements include
transport systems - air, rail, road, water and now, space; hospitality services - accommodation, foods and beverages, tours, souvenirs; and related services such as
banking, insurance and safety & security. The intangible elements include: rest and relaxation, culture, escape, adventure, new and different experiences.
MIGRATION: The seasonal game migration across the vast Serengeti plain remains one of the greatest natural events in the world. The Ngorongoro Crater (now a world
heritage site), Lake Manyara National Park and the Serengeti together offer an exceptional safari holiday.
KILIMANJARO: The highest mountain in Africa is Kilimanjaro. Its snow-capped peak dominates the surrounding plains. A climb takes six nights and for the more
energetic this is a lifetime experience and an achievement not to be missed.
SAFARI: In the Serengeti the great migrations normally begin around the end of May when the herds move northwards to cross the rivers separating Tanzania and Kenya.
They return south in late October to early November. If you are traveling outside these times the population of resident game remains high.
