Tanzania is Africa’s best safari destination, according to SafariBookings.com, the largest online marketplace for African safari tours. The website conducted an analysis of more than 2,500 expert and safari-goer reviews and declared Tanzania the best safari country in 2017. 
 “Our analysis included more than 2,500 expert and safari-goer reviews. The reviews were evaluated to find the overall favourite and decide the 2017 winner,” says a report posted on the website. 
 The reviews were written by tourists who went on a safari and some of Africa’s leading travel experts. 
“In our original analysis in 2013, Tanzania also swept away challenges from other sub-Saharan African nations. It is the second time the country has been awarded our overall winner of the best African country for a safari.”
 The website adds that its analysis also revealed that Tanzania’s famed wild spaces made it the best country overall for wildlife too. Various celebrities have in recent months been flocking to various tourist attractions in Tanzania.
