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 which takes you completely
off-the-beaten-track. We add a night in Mikumi national park to complete this
lovely southern adventure. The tour touches the wild Africa of yesteryear and completes this heady
infusion on the romantic spice island of Zanzibar. You’ll not only experience
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! Complete this magical 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.
