Serengeti & Zanzibar Beach Escape
Africa's greatest savannah meets the Spice Island's turquoise waters
Tour Overview
The ultimate Tanzania itinerary combining Serengeti safari magic with Zanzibar's spice-scented beaches. Five days of world-class game viewing followed by four days on an island paradise where the Indian Ocean is every shade of blue imaginable. This combination has consistently been voted one of Africa's top 10 holiday itineraries, and for good reason — the contrast between the raw drama of the Serengeti and the languid luxury of Zanzibar is intoxicating. Track lions at dawn, then swim in crystal waters by afternoon. It's the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation.
