Itinerary Highlights

Track the Big Cats

Spotting any of the big cats whether it be lion, cheetah or leopard is one of the most thrilling aspects of a safari holiday. Tracking them as they hunt adds to the excitement and appreciation of their disposition.

The Stunning Beaches of Zanzibar

There’s nowhere quite like it for the stunning white-white fine sand and turqoise warm sea. Have fun swimming or just chilling on the beach and watching the dhows sail by.

Snorkelling/Diving

Immerse yourself in beautiful waters either beach side or off a boat. There are plenty of places to hire, dip and dive nearby.

Your own Private Safari

Your safari experience will be as personal as possible with a guide tailored to your party. You will be in a specially crafted safari landrover/landcruiser with pop up roof or open sides for optimum game viewing.

Witness the Great Migration

Possibly the greatest show on earth with the movement of up to a million wildebeest and zebra within the Serengeti/Masai Mara ecosystem, following the same pattern each year in search of fresh grasses.

Wide Open Plains Of The Serengeti

Watch the circle of life performing in front of you with the plethora of game living its everyday. Combine with vistas as far as you can see and skies as big as you have known. Welcome to the Serengeti.

Natural wonder of Ngorongoro Crater

Immerse yourself in this natural wonder with its plethora of game inside. The crater forms part of the Great Rift Valley and the beauty from its rim is breathtaking.

I am just back from Tanzania and wanted to thank you very much for a fantastic itinerary. I loved all the accommodation choices made, all the connecting flights worked well and the guide was superb. I had a great time and let me know if you want to get some more feedback on any of the properties suggested by you and also Pongwe Beach which excellent.

Armin

Many thanks for a truly great holiday! Nyerere National Park was a great success as we saw the wild dogs on 2 occasions and some great lion kills. In fact we saw a pride of 10 lion including cubs within 10 mins of landing in the Nyerere National Park! Zanzibar was wonderful! The sunshine hotel was beautiful and the staff were lovely.

Andrew Morton

The welcome and kindness and generosity we have received, in all of our camps and stops has been tremendous. Although we have both travelled a lot over our years together, we both agree this holiday has been outstanding, and one of the best experiences of our lives.

Tanzania Northern Parks & Zanzibar, August 2019

Thank you for organising a fabulous holiday for us – memories of which will last a lifetime. We have arrived back completely awed by Tanzania and Zanzibar. We saw the all the wildlife we could possibly wish to see. Our driver was charming and looked after us brilliantly. Lodges were excellent and food fantastic.
