Given the richness of adjacent regions ... the fabulous safari areas of
North Tanzania, the remote jewels of
West Tanzania and the lush mountains of
Rwanda ... it comes as some surprise to find how little there is of interest in this Northwest corner of Tanzania.
The main town of
Mwanza, on the southern shore of Lake Victoria, may have some interesting pockets, but usually only comes into our field of vision when talking to expats who are working there on various projects.
The only real commercial lodge facility is located on
Rubondo Island to the west of Mwanza.
