Want a Tanzania safari
& beach combination with an abundance of wildlife in varied landscapes with
not just Zanzibar, but a wild beach as well?
Then this is the tour for you!
There are some
secret gems in the south of Tanzania from parks the size of Ireland with hardly
any people to stunning coastal preserves on the edge of the Indian ocean. Selous Nyerere and Saadani National Parks are
the focus of this Tanzanian safari which takes you completely
off-the-beaten-track. This tour touches
the wild Africa of yesteryear and completes this heady infusion on the romantic
spice island of Zanzibar.

Africa’s largest wildlife park which also happens to be the best place to see
the elusive African Hunting Dogs, but you’ll also get to explore East Africa’s
only coastal wildlife park; Saadani.
Saadani’s unique
combination of bush, beach and marine park combines game drives, foot safaris
and a wonderful river cruise with miles of deserted white sand beaches with the
warm Indian Ocean thrown in!

safari experience on the exotic spice island of Zanzibar, off Tanzania’s East
coast with its clear turquoise waters, pristine beaches and world-class diving.
