Our trip to Tanzania was a long time in the planning stages and not nearly enough time actually traveling. Sadly that seems to be the way it is with our travels, which isn't to say that this trip and all the others haven't been absolutely worth it!
We flew into Nairobi where we spent the night before boarding a bus bound for Moshi. In Moshi, we met our climbing guide and made last minute preparations before heading off for an eight day hike up
Kilimanjaro - a difficult but extremely rewarding experience.
Once down from the summit, we began the luxury part of our trip - three days on safari. From the back of our Range Rover we admired the sights of the Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara before heading back to Arusha.
At that point, Sarah headed for Nairobi and home while Gareth hopped a bus for Zanzibar. (Not fair!)
Tanzania was everything we had hoped for and much more. The people were wonderful and the scenery was like nothing we had ever seen before. We would go back tomorrow - if only we could!
