On a safari in Tanzania, you can expect to see a wide variety of iconic African wildlife.

Here are some of the animals you might have the opportunity to see: Big Cats: Lions, leopards, and cheetahs are among the most sought-after predators.

Witnessing hundreds of thousands of these animals crossing rivers and plains is unforgettable, particularly in the Serengeti.

They inhabit grasslands and woodlands. Rhinoceros: Specifically the African species, which is further divided into the black rhinoceros and the white rhinoceros.
