For many years, the Tanzania Tourism industry was concentrated in the Northern Circuit where most tourists and awards would find their way to Kilimanjaro, Ngorongoro and the Serengeti, but this time around, the World Travel Awards have flown south.

The National Park, featuring all the Big-Five species and spellbinding landscapes, attracts an average of 450,000 tourists per year, making it the most popular wildlife tourism destination in Tanzania.

This year the World Travel Award (WTA) has included the new voting category. This is Africa's Leading Elephant Paradise National Park 2025.

The World Travel Awards is hosting the WTA Africa and Indian Ocean Gala Ceremony 2025 in Tanzania, being attended by travel industry leaders from across the continent and beyond.

Warmer than average conditions are expected over northern and southern Sudan, South Sudan, central to southern Ethiopia, Somalia, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi and Tanzania.
