Tour Plan

Upon exiting Kilimanjaro International Airport, you'll be warmly welcomed by your personal Tanzania Specialist guide with a beaming smile: 'Karibu Tanzania - welcome to Tanzania!' From there, you'll be whisked away to your hotel, where you can unwind and immerse yourself in the African ambiance.

The following day, your guide will accompany you on an exclusive, private safari tailored to your preferences, allowing you to explore at your own leisurely pace. Enjoy the comfort of your own safari jeep and the freedom to pause and observe the wildlife for as long as you desire!

Today offers a splendid opportunity for relaxation, allowing you to tailor your day to your preferences. You can opt to luxuriate at the lodge, indulging in impeccable service, savoring refreshing beverages, and unwinding by the pool amidst the captivating African ambiance.

Alternatively, immerse yourself in the charm of Arusha with various engaging activities. Embark on a city tour to discover its highlights, traverse the outskirts on a mountain bike excursion, or peruse the vibrant Maasai market to acquire memorable souvenirs. The choice is yours to make the most of this delightful day.

Today you will go for your first actual game drive, in Arusha National Park! This park close to Arusha is known for its abundance of tropical birds, the presence of the black and white Colobus monkey and some rare albino baboons.

You will probably spot the Colobus monkey and some rare bird species such as the gorgeous Silvery Cheeked Hornbill, and, if you are very lucky, even an albino. The park also has a lake, a few craters, waterfalls, mountains, and beautiful grassy planes.

Today offers the choice to unwind at your hotel and bask in its welcoming hospitality, or embark on a variety of adventures! A delightful option is to visit the enchanting Mount Meru waterfalls.

A brief hike will lead you there, where you can enjoy a rejuvenating swim in the chilly waters beneath the cascades. Delight in a tranquil lunch amidst the serene surroundings, serenaded by birdsong and the gentle flow of water. Keep an eye out for the remarkable Colobus monkey or the Silvery Cheeked Hornbill as you make your way back!

Tarangire National Park is renowned for its large herds of elephants and abundant giant baobab trees. These remarkable trees, capable of living for centuries, serve as a vital water source for elephants during the dry season, as they possess a unique ability to store water within their trunks.

Additionally, the Tarangire River stands as the sole water source during this arid period, attracting numerous animals. It's not uncommon to witness gatherings of up to 250 elephants alongside a multitude of other wildlife species during this time in Tarangire.

Serengeti National Park is renowned as the ultimate safari destination, primarily due to the Great Migration that traverses its plains.

The awe-inspiring sight of massive herds on the move is matched by the abundance of predators residing here: boasting over four thousand lions, 225 cheetahs, a thousand leopards, 3500 hyenas, and hundreds of wild dogs! Additionally, the park is teeming with a diverse array of other captivating wildlife species, all waiting to be discovered with the guidance of your expert safari guide. Are you prepared for this extraordinary adventure?

The famous Ngorongoro Crater is one of Africa's seven natural wonders. The crater was formed two million years ago when a vast volcano erupted.

The fertile lava has created a unique ecosystem, now home to the highest concentration of animals found anywhere in Africa! Once in the crater, thousands of animals such as lions, zebras, buffalos and black rhinos surround you, and the views are astounding

Today you fly to the spice island of Zanzibar. You will be picked up at the airport by your guide and taken to your hotel.

Over the next few days, you can discover white sandy beaches, crystal-clear turquoise waters and vibrant coral reefs. Immerse yourself in the rich culture and history of Stone Town, visit spice plantations and enjoy the delicious local cuisine. The tropical paradise awaits you!

Welcome to the ultimate paradise: stunning, tropical Zanzibar! The pristine blue waters of the Indian Ocean and the picturesque palm-fringed, white sandy beaches are simply breathtaking.

Indulge in freshly bought coconut drinks on the beach, while away the hours sunbathing or swimming, and savor the delectable flavors of Zanzibari cuisine. Feeling adventurous? Dive into a variety of activities on the beach, in the ocean, and around the island! We particularly recommend the Safari Blue Cruise or a guided tour of Stone Town. Experience the magic of Zanzibar!

It's the final day of your unforgettable journey! Spend it leisurely on the beach or take some extra time to explore the island. Later, a driver will whisk you away to Zanzibar International Airport, ensuring you're there in time for your flight back home.

Feeling tempted to prolong your holiday? You have the option to extend your adventure to another paradise island, like Mnemba, Pemba, or Mafia!
