An indication of the spectacular attractions on offer in Tanzania is the presence of eight World Heritage Sites in the country – the most of any African country – with the potential of five more being added in the future. The sites range from cultural icons to legendary wilderness [Natural] areas.
Tanzanian World Heritage Sites
Since 1972, important wilderness and cultural landmarks in the world have been designated World Heritage status by the UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization).
Some of the earliest sites include Mount Everest, Machu Picchu, Grand Canyon, Great Wall of China and the Galapagos Islands. The list has grown to over 800 sites around the world. Tanzania currently has seven UNESCO sites, with one designated Cultural and Natural, bringing the total to eight.

Tanzania Cultural & Historical Tours
At OTR, we believe the cultural diversity of Tanzania is one of its greatest strengths. By meeting and understanding people whose views and values are very different from your own, you acquire new insights and perspectives that change your attitudes towards them, towards yourself and towards the entire world.
This new depth of perception and wisdom opens new horizons, opportunities and flexibility in your future life choices. You may travel to Africa to learn more about her wildlife, but through her people, you will learn more about yourself. This may well be a most valuable and lasting aspect of your safari of the tribal people of Tanzania.
