| | Wildlife near on Tanzania trip | | 2008-06-25 03:28:00 | | On one safari, or Swahili for journey, we saw more than 240 species of birds, dozens of mammals, reptiles and numerous insects including “pants down” ants.Our time afield was in four-wheel drive vehicles with popup roofs affording ample room for observing and photographing. In national parks, off-road driving is prohibited so wildlife can be easily approached.We traveled by 18-foot flat-bottom boat on the Rifiji River in the Selous Game Reserve as an alternative way to see elephant, cape buffalo, hippo, crocodile, waterbuck and numerous birds.

| | Travel to Tanzania | | 2008-04-05 17:09:00 | | Tanzania, that east African nation with the beautiful, exotic name is a new travel destination for many. The nation’s rich cultural heritage and diverse landscape makes for a once in a lifetime adventure to this land of cerulean hued waters, snowed capped mountain peaks and thrilling safaris on the plains of the Serengeti. This nation, roughly twice the size of the state of California is also home to the famous Masai tribe, some of the world’s most strikingly statuesque people.Climb Mt. Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest peak often called the roof of Africa at 15,100 feet and enjoy the view of the surrounding plains or travel to the heart of Masai country, also in northern Tanzania to visit Ol Donyo Lengai. This active volcano, measuring close to 10,000 feet in height is located in the Rift Valley. The view from its north from its summit looks over the sweltering yet extraordinary salt flats of Lake Natron where few animals live but the flamingo makes its home.

| De acampada por Kenia y Tanzania, como los exploradores "de verdad" | | 2008-03-11 04:08:03 | | Como todos sabemos, Kenia y Tanzania son dos lugares más que turísticos pero, curiosamente, su oferta de alojamientos prácticamente se reduce a dos modalidades: Lodges de lujo y campings. Aunque con la diferencia de nivel adquisitivo entre Europa y estos países algunos Lodges son bastante asequibles, nosotros optamos por la segunda opción en nuestro viaje por los Parques Naturales de Kenia y Tanzania. Decidios a acampar y disfrutar de la naturaleza lo más posible.Debo decir en su defensa que algunos Parques tienen campings más que pintones, con cabañitas de estilo local y aceptables instalaciones, pero muchos otros sólo cuentan con zonas de acampada libre cuya concepción te deja, cuanto menos, perplejo. Y es que, una vez que has pasado por ellos, ya lo has visto todo en este sentido. De verdad.Recuerdo con especial cariño un par de estas zonas de acampada: La del Lago Nakuru, tal vez porque fue la primera y me descubrió este particular concepto de alojamiento, y la del Sere | | By: Un Lugar en el Mundo | | |
| | Yo hice un viaje a... Kenia y Tanzania | | 2008-03-11 03:43:16 | | Siempre he querido ir a África. Como todos los niños, supongo. Para ver los elefantes y los leones, a las jirafas con sus largos cuellos, y a los rinocerontes con su único cuerno. Recuerdo que, mientras estaba en la Universidad, una amiga hizo un viaje por Kenia y, cuando me dijo lo que le había costado, pensé que se iba a quedar como uno más de tantos sueños de juventud.Sin embargo, años más tarde uno se echa una pareja zoóloga y viajera, mochilero para más señas, y en las primeras vacaciones juntos se plantea hacer un viaje largo dilapidando lo ahorrado en el último trabajo. Y..., ¿adivinan cuál es el destino que surge inmediatamente? ¡Por fin! ¡La Gran y Enigmática Kenia!.En una agencia de viajes alternativos, que ya conocíamos, proponían un viaje perfecto para nosotros: camión y acampada, con el poco original pero idílico nombre de “Memorias de África”. Nada de 4x4 melena al viento, ni hoteles de lujo. La Naturaleza en estado puro en su propio lugar de or | | By: Un Lugar en el Mundo | | |

Clinton Foundation, spent six days in Tanzania, the largest country in East Africa. He was there to announce a critically needed subsidy to improve malaria treatment in the country. On his last day in Tanzania, President Clinton became one of 360,000 visitors annually to explore the World Famous Ngorongoro Crater. Often called 'Africa's Eden' and the '8th Natural Wonder of the World,' this collapsed volcano (a "caldera") is located in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. This is a natural sanctuary for thousands of birds, insects and animals such as lions, zebra, black rhino and wildebeest, all free to wander.The Ngorongoro Conservation Area Authority (NCAA) was established in 1959 to protect an area covering 8300 square kilometers. Only indigenous tribes such as the Masaai are allowed to live on this land. Olduvai Gorge ("The Cradle of Mankind"), Lake Ndutu and Masek are also within its borders.

| | On safari in Tanzania | | 2007-07-02 05:06:00 | | The young Masai warrior who is with us begins to laugh, long and deep. This is clearly the funniest thing he’s heard in a while. It’s like a Masai telling us he would survive in London by asking a passer-by for £100.

| | Agathon Rwasa demands $12 million to stop killing people - Tanzania admits bankrolling the FNL | | 2007-01-30 17:28:00 | | From the East AfricanThe growing restlessness of the rebel leaders drove the countries involved in the regional initiative to arrange a meeting in Dar-es-Salaam last week in which the FNL leaders were persuaded to fulfil their obligations under the ceasefire agreement and return to Bujumbura. Sources close to the process told The EastAfrican that it was made specifically clear to the rebels that their $12 million claim to, among others, clear war debts, would not be honoured under the terms of the deal. Another source in the Tanzanian government also revealed to The EastAfrican that “it was made clear to the rebel leaders that they could not continue to lounge in the hotels here, while we paid all their bills and gave them a per diem.” | | By: Agathon Rwasa | | |
