Tanzania

Tanzania stretches from the Indian Ocean coast across savannahs and highland plateaus to the shores of Lake Victoria and Lake Tanganyika. Its skyline is anchored by Kilimanjaro — Africa's highest peak — visible from the plains below on clear mornings. The pace of life varies sharply between the spice-scented streets of Zanzibar's Stone Town and the quiet rhythms of rural villages inland.
