9-Day Best of Tanzania Safari and Beach Vacation

After your breakfast at your hotel, We will pick you up at around 7:30am and take you to a very special Safari Park in Tanzania. Tarangire is famous for its diverse landscape with nine different vegetation zones. The Tarangire safari park is particularly known for the abundance of Ancient Baobab trees (the largest trees in the continent) which fill the landscape and dwarf the animals next to them. The river of the park is full of wildlife ranging from a large variety of birds to lions, leopards, zebras, giraffes, buffaloes, antelopes and, of course, African elephants. In fact, Tarangire has the largest concentration of elephants in the whole country and provides unique chances to observe the interaction between elephant families. In the afternoon we will still do a game drive before continuing to your accommodation. Dinner and Overnight at Eileen's Tree Lodge.

Beautiful short trip across the Great Rift Valley until Lake Manyara National Park for a full day game drive. The Lake Manyara has breathtaking scenery and well famous for its lush acacia forest, giant figs and mahogany trees, as well as to a growing population of baboons and blue monkeys. Permanent residents of this park also include giraffes, African elephants, impalas and a huge amount of buffaloes. The lake is also home to a large number of hippos. Some unique facts about this park include the tree climbing lions, flamingos in the lake shore, as well as the Ground Hornbill and the Crested Eagle. The landscapes of Lake Manyara are something that can not be described with words, and the game drives along the lake provide stunning photo opportunities of giraffes and buffaloes in the foreground and the lake (and its flamingos) in the background. Transfer to Eileen's Tree Lodge for Dinner and Overnight.

After an early Breakfast, drive through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and on to Serengeti National Park with game viewing en-route. Serengeti is undoubtedly the best-known wildlife sanctuary in the world, unequaled for its natural beauty and scientific value. It has the greatest concentration of plains game in Africa. It is the migration for which the Serengeti is perhaps most famous. Over a million wildebeest and about 200,000 zebras flow south from the northern hills to the southern plains for the short rains every October and November. They then swirl west and north after the long rains in April, May and June. So strong is the ancient instinct to move that no drought, gorge or crocodile-infested river can hold them back. Serengeti is truly home to the legendary great wildebeest migration. Dinner and Overnight at Moyo Luxury Camp.

After breakfast this morning, enjoy an amazing game drive. The great diversity of Serengeti wildlife is evident here—look for buffalo, hippopotamus, elephant, giraffe, antelope, Thompson’s and Grant’s gazelle, and lions. If you are there during the spectacular wildebeest migration, you will be more than astonished. In the late afternoon we venture out in another game drive. Everywhere there are animals, monkeys and, yes, birds…but look closely and you will be thrilled to see the huge jungle cats-lion, leopard and cheetah-watching the world go by. And go by it does. Rhino, gazelle, antelope and massive elephants by the hundreds. Animals in the trees, flying, camouflaged in the bush, in rivers and in streams. This is the adventure of a lifetime! Dinner and Overnight at Moyo Luxury tented Camp.

Early in the morning after breakfast, we depart for Ngorongoro Crater. When you first see Ngorongoro Crater, it looks like a forgotten world. You will have an opportunity to spot the endangered black rhino and large families of lions. The crater was created when a large volcano exploded and collapsed in on itself two to three million years ago. It is famous for both its geological delights and for being a natural reserve that is home to some of the densest large mammal populations in the whole of the African continent. The drive down into the crater is an adventure in itself and when you reach the crater floor, you'll quickly find yourself amongst large numbers of wildebeest, zebra, gazelle, and more than 500 bird species. The crater provides you with the best chance of seeing the endangered black rhino, which can sometimes be spotted in the open grass. Dinner and your overnight stay Jevas Hotel.

After breakfast, you will head straight to the airport and depart to Zanzibar, whereby your flight can be arranged at an extra cost before travelling to the northern coast of Zanzibar known as Makunduchi. It has the kind of white coral sand that seems to glow even after nightfall. For its entire bustle, it can still feel secluded. Makunduchi expansive coastline is wide open for swimming and snorkeling in some of Africa’s most pristine, reef-rich waters. It’s one of the rare Zanzibari beaches untroubled by severe undulations of high and low tides, making it perfect for all-day water activities. There are plenty of activities on offer walking tours, sunset cruises, diving excursions and parasailing to name a few but all it really takes is a sunset sighting of traditional dhow boats bobbing in the sea to be captured by this enchanting African beach. Dinner and Overnight stay at Ujamaa Beach Resort.

Relax and unwind in Zanzibar in the middle of untouched nature with crystal clear water. Zanzibar is the most popular beach destination in Tanzania. Besides the sea and the beaches, you can visit Stone Town, the spice plantations, snorkeling, diving, and canoeing. Dinner and Overnight stay at Ujamaa Beach Resort.

Have breakfast at Ujamaa Beach Resort in Zanzibar. Spend the last hours of your holiday relaxing at this beautiful Melia Zanzibar Beach. Later, you will depart from the hotel for a drive To Zanzibar Airport for your international flight back home.
