Tanzania, officially known as the United Republic of Tanzania, is a vibrant country located in East Africa. With a population of 62 million, it holds the distinction of being the most populated country lying entirely south of the equator. Tanzania shares its borders with Kenya and Uganda to the north, Rwanda, Burundi, and the Democratic Republic of Congo to the west, Zambia, Malawi, and Mozambique to the south, and the Indian Ocean to the east.

The northeastern region is characterised by its mountainous terrain and dense forests, home to the iconic Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest peak in Africa. While Dodoma serves as the capital, the bustling city of Dar es Salaam is the main hub for international flights and commerce. The enchanting Zanzibar archipelago, renowned for its pristine beaches and rich cultural heritage, is a must-visit destination. Tanzania's diverse landscape and cultural tapestry offer a multifaceted experience, from the Serengeti's vast savannahs and wildlife to the historic spice plantations and Swahili coastlines.
