Our Authentic Northern Tanzania and Zanzibar holiday is one of our most popular to this region of Africa. This holiday covers the main Northern Tanzania national parks of Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater.
You will witness spectacular views of Mount Kilimanjaro, an abundance of bird life that is attracted to the soda lake at Lake Manyara National Park and three days of game viewing on the seemingly endless plains of the Serengeti. Visit the world's largest inactive and intact volcanic caldera at Ngorongoro Crater which draws thousands of large animals including black rhino.
While on safari you will be in the professional hands of a private guide with your own vehicle, providing you with the luxury of travelling at your own pace allowing you the chance to find your own special sightings.
After your five day adventure on safari you will take a short flight to the exotic Indian Ocean Island of Zanzibar for some quiet relaxation and long sandy white beaches.
The camps and lodges in this holiday have been chosen to offer comfortable and authentic experiences in fantastic locations, keeping you in the heart of all the action together with a real wilderness experience.
