Serengeti & Zanzibar Honeymoon Safari
Serengeti Game Drives to the Spice-Island Shores of Zanzibar
Overview
Tanzania offers the most natural bush-and-beach honeymoon in Africa: the Serengeti and the spice island of Zanzibar share the same country, so the two halves connect on a single short flight. You begin on the endless plains — lion, elephant, cheetah and, in season, the Great Migration — then fly east to Zanzibar, where powder-white sand, turquoise water and the timber dhows of the Indian Ocean take over.
Zanzibar is more than a beach. Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a warren of carved doors, spice markets and Swahili-Arab history; the north coast at Nungwi and Kendwa has the island's finest swimming beaches; and a spice-farm tour reveals why this was once the richest island in the region. It is a honeymoon of contrasts — wild mornings on the plains, slow afternoons on the sand.
Who It's For
Perfect for honeymooners and couples who want a headline safari and a warm, characterful island in one trip — with the ease of staying in a single country until the very end.
