My suggestion
When flying from Dar es Salaam to Arusha, ask for a seat on the right of the plane so that you can admire Kilimanjaro's snow-capped cone. It is wise to take an extra day to get acclimatized when attempting its ascent.
Here is why Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Conservation Area could be considered as the most beautiful parks in the world. A must-see during a safari in Tanzania!
