The Ultimate Tanzania & Zanzibar Escape from £4499 per person
Journey through private Tanzanian Safari & all-inclusive Zanzibar from Lake Manyara to the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater rim, this private Tanzania safari crosses four distinct landscapes before the pace changes entirely on the shores of Zanzibar.
This eleven-night itinerary is a classic Tanzania circuit, ideal for travellers stepping into the country for the first time. Beginning in Arusha, the journey takes in Lake Manyara, the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater, each offering diverse game viewing, from Manyara’s forested groundwater lake to the open plains of the Serengeti and the concentrated wildlife of the crater floor. Throughout, you’ll have your own private vehicle and driver-guide, so the pace and focus of each game drive is entirely yours.
After six nights on safari, the trip shifts gear completely with five nights at Neptune Pwani in Zanzibar, trading dust and dawn starts for warm water and slower mornings. It’s a well-balanced introduction to Tanzania, pairing its best-known safari circuit with genuine time to unwind.

Why You’ll Love This Trip!
You’ll love how this trip changes shape every couple of days, from the coffee farms around Arusha to the tree-lined shores of Lake Manyara, the open plains of the Serengeti and the crater walls of Ngorongoro, all covered with your own vehicle and guide so you can linger wherever catches your eye. Travelling in April and May means the wildebeest migration is likely to be moving through the very region you’re exploring, adding a layer of unpredictability to each game drive. Waking up on the rim of Ngorongoro, looking straight down into a crater that holds thousands of animals within its walls, is the kind of moment that stays with you long after the trip ends. Then everything slows down. Five nights at Neptune Pwani on Zanzibar’s north east coast give you space to do nothing in particular, with the beach, the water and an all-inclusive stay taking care of the rest. It’s a trip that gives you Tanzania’s classic safari circuit without asking you to choose between wildlife and rest, because it gives you both in full.
