Karibu! Welcome! In this one-time class, we will explore the geography, landmarks, people, and other interesting facts about Tanzania through a vivid slideshow presentation (includes short video clips and photos) and discussion. And the fun part? You guessed it! No visit to Tanzania is complete without a tour of the Serengeti National Park. Besides the big five, students will learn about some lesser-known but equally fascinating animals that live there. We will also check out the beautiful Island of Zanzibar to see the historically rich city of Stone Town. What's not to love about Tanzania? I hope to see you in class!
