The Journey

Two Tanzanias
in One Journey.

The Beach & Safari is our most ambitious and most beloved package. The first week takes you through the heart of Tanzania's northern safari circuit — Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Tarangire. A short flight to Zanzibar then delivers you to a world of white sand, turquoise water, and pure island calm.

Prison Island tortoises. Mnemba atoll reefs. Nakupenda sandbar. Zanzibar Safari Blue. A full week of island experiences curated to match the depth of the safari.

Fourteen days. The complete Tanzania experience.

Island · Ocean · Rest

1

Day I

Arrival

Arrive at Kilimanjaro International Airport or Arusha Airport. Transfer to your Arusha lodge. Evening briefing with your guide sets the stage for the journey ahead.

2

Day II

Transfer to Serengeti

Early morning departure for the Serengeti, driving west through the Ngorongoro highlands with a stop at the crater rim. Arrive on the plains in the afternoon for your first game drive as the light burns low and golden.

3

Days III & IV

Full Days — Serengeti National Park

Two full days in the Serengeti — arguably the greatest wildlife spectacle on earth. Lion prides, leopards in the fever trees, cheetahs on the kopjes, and if the season is right, columns of wildebeest as far as the eye can see. Bush breakfast at dawn, field picnic at noon, sundowner under an acacia at dusk.

4

Day V

Transfer to Ngorongoro & Maasai Village Tour

Drive east from the Serengeti. Stop at a traditional Maasai boma for a cultural village tour — warriors, beadwork, and cattle kraals that have looked the same for centuries. Arrive at your crater-rim lodge for sunset across the caldera.

5

Day VI

Crater Game Drive & Drive to Tarangire

Dawn descent into the Ngorongoro Crater — a geological marvel and Big Five stronghold. Morning game drive on the crater floor, tracking rhino and lion. Ascend at midday and drive south to Tarangire, arriving in time for an afternoon game drive.

6

Day VII

Game Drive — Tarangire National Park

A full day in Tarangire — Tanzania's most underrated gem. The Tarangire River attracts some of Africa's largest elephant herds alongside giraffe, zebra, and over 550 bird species. The ancient baobabs lend the landscape a prehistoric grandeur unlike anywhere else.

7

Day VIII

Flight to Zanzibar

Transfer to the airport for your short flight to Zanzibar. Check into your boutique beach property and let the sound of the Indian Ocean replace the sound of the bush. Evening at leisure.

8

Day IX

Full Day Hotel Relaxation

A day entirely at your own pace. The pool, the beach, the spa. You have earned it. Zanzibar's waters are warm, the sand is white, and the pace is blissfully slow.

9

Day X

Prison Island & Nakupenda Sandbank Tour

Morning boat trip to Prison Island — home to Aldabra giant tortoises that have roamed the island for over 100 years. Sail on to the Nakupenda sandbank, a white crescent of sand appearing from the ocean at low tide, for a barefoot beach picnic lunch.

10

Day XI

Zanzibar Safari Blue

A full-day sailing excursion into the turquoise channels south of Zanzibar. Snorkel over coral gardens, swim in warm blue water, feast on fresh seafood on board, and visit remote sandbanks only reachable by dhow.

11

Day XII

Mnemba Island Tour

A short trip to Mnemba Atoll — one of the Indian Ocean's finest snorkelling destinations. Green sea turtles, spinner dolphins, and extraordinary coral gardens in water so clear it looks digital. A world-class marine experience.

12

Day XIII

Full Day Hotel Relaxation

Your final full day. Sleep in. Walk the beach. Shop for spices in a local market. Take a sunset dhow cruise. Zanzibar on your own terms.

13

Day XIV

Departure

Transfer to Zanzibar International Airport. Fourteen days of Tanzania — from elephants at dusk to dolphins at dawn — and a life forever changed.
