Serengeti · Ngorongoro · Zanzibar
Serengeti & Zanzibar
Wild Tanzania followed by the Indian Ocean — extraordinary wildlife, exceptional stays and a beautifully slow finish on Zanzibar.
The classic Tanzanian pairing, done properly: an unhurried private safari, then enough time on the island to actually slow down.
Journey highlights
- Safari and island in one seamless journey
- Private guiding on the mainland, privacy on the coast
- Short scheduled flight from the plains to the ocean
- Ideal for honeymoons and milestone celebrations

Questions
How long should we spend on Zanzibar?
Five nights is our recommendation — enough to settle, swim and do nothing at all.
Can this be arranged as a honeymoon?
It frequently is. We arrange private dining, room preferences and quiet celebration details discreetly.
