Overview

This 14-day honeymoon safari pairs Tanzania’s best wildlife parks with a quiet beach stay in Zanzibar. The safari part takes you through Arusha National Park, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. You sleep in small tented lodges and camps with wildlife close by. Then you fly to Zanzibar to rest on white sand beaches and walk the old streets of Stone Town. We planned it for couples, so there is a good mix of game drives, time together and time to do nothing at all.

    Today you set off for the Serengeti, home of the famous Great Migration and some of the best game viewing in Africa. You do game drives on the way in and out on the wide plains.

    After one last game drive in the Serengeti, you cross the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, stopping for the views and any animals you spot. You then drop down into the green farmland and spend the night at Tloma Lodge, a friendly lodge on the slopes of the Ngorongoro Highlands.
