9-Day Tanzania Safari & Zanzibar Beach Holiday
The Classic Tanzania Experience
Tanzania's Finest Safari Parks — Then Zanzibar's White Sandy Beaches
This is Tanzania done properly — five days across Tarangire's elephant herds, the Ngorongoro Crater floor, the Serengeti's Big Five and the ancient humanity of Olduvai Gorge, then a domestic flight to Zanzibar for three days on the beach. One of the finest safari-and-sand combinations East Africa has to offer.
