The journey
About this itinerary
The 13-Day Kenya & Tanzania Wildlife & Zanzibar Beach Safari pairs nine days of classic game-viewing — Amboseli's elephants beneath Kilimanjaro, the Masai Mara's Big Five plains, and a full descent into the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater — with four days unwinding on Zanzibar's white-sand coast. A short flight from Arusha swaps 4x4 game drives for dhow sunsets, Stone Town's old streets, and time to simply do nothing on the beach, on the same shared vehicles, fixed-tent camps and dedicated trip coordinator as our other safaris.
Highlights
- — Amboseli's elephant herds with Mount Kilimanjaro as a backdrop
- — Full-day Masai Mara game drives
- — A land border crossing into Tanzania with a built-in safety buffer
- — Full-day Serengeti game drives and a full descent into the Ngorongoro Crater
- — A short flight from Arusha straight to Zanzibar's coast
- — Stone Town's UNESCO-listed old town and a sunset dhow cruise
