Top 5 activities not to be missed during your assignment in Tanzania

Aug 28, 2025 | Tanzania

In addition to their missions, volunteers at The Helping Zebra have the opportunity to discover Tanzania in a different way through unforgettable activities. Here is our selection of the top 5 must-do activities!

1. Go on safari in Serengeti National Park
This is one of the most beautiful nature reserves in the world. Lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras… African wildlife in all its splendour. Guided safaris are often offered at weekends, so don’t miss out!

2. Hiking at the foot of Kilimanjaro
A symbol of Tanzania, Kilimanjaro is a legendary mountain. Although the full ascent is long, there are many accessible hikes offering breathtaking views.

3. Explore craft markets
Local markets are treasure troves of colours, scents and encounters. They are the ideal place to pick up authentic souvenirs: kitenge fabrics, Masai jewellery, wooden sculptures…

4. Discover Masai culture
The Helping Zebra offers guided tours of partner Maasai villages. A unique opportunity to exchange ideas, learn about their traditions and their world view.

5. Relaxing on the beaches of Zanzibar
After the commitment, it’s time to relax. The Zanzibar archipelago offers a picture-postcard setting: turquoise waters, white sand, and a relaxed atmosphere. A well-deserved break.

These activities allow you to experience Tanzania in all its dimensions and return home with rich and varied memories.
