African Violets (Saintpaulia) have been promoted as flagship plants for the conservation of these forests.

Magoroto Forest Reserve being in Tanga, this trip is complemented with a beach safari to Pangani. Specific to Ushongo village, one of the most calm place & beach we have ever experienced in Tanzania. Ushongo Beach in Tanga, this beautiful, sandy, palm-fringed beach is untouched by development. The beach is virtually deserted at most of the time giving an exclusive beach experience. With some of the best Backpacking & Cottages accommodation options in this package.

Our most calm relaxed safari & beach experience so far in Safiri.
