About Lake Victoria
Africa's great lake
North-western Tanzania, shared with Kenya and Uganda
Lake Victoria, Africa’s largest lake, spreads across the northwest of Tanzania — a world of fishing villages, island archipelagos and big skies far from the safari crowds.
It pairs naturally with the Serengeti’s western corridor, and with Rubondo Island for forest and birds.
