With the growing number of tourists visiting Tanzania every year, Tanzania National Parks authority has identified key areas for tourist investments for hotel development in less visited tourist attractive wildlife parks in southern and western Tanzania.

To accomplish its mission, the national parks management has set 34 areas in less visited parks located in southern and western parts of Tanzania as a new initiative to attract more tourists to visit Tanzania.

National Parks director general Mr. Allan Kijazi said more investments in tourist accommodation were badly needed in Tanzania’s less developed, but, attractive wildlife parks located in southern and western corners of this country.

Among these parks, are Katavi near Zambian border, Mikumi, Ruaha, Kitulo, Rubondo, Gombe and Mahale chimpanzee parks.

Mr. Kijazi said over 75 percent of tourists visiting Tanzania prefer the wildlife parks, so, there has been a great need to increase the number of beds in most wildlife parks, from the present 6,681 beds to 8,421 beds in the forthcoming years.
