A holiday that's hard to beat

The perfect balance of adventure, wildlife, and relaxation in some of the world’s best game parks. From iconic safaris to a week of sun and sea, it’s a holiday that truly has it all.

Your journey kicks off in the heart of safari country, exploring the vast plains of the Serengeti, the lush Tarangire, and the iconic Ngorongoro Crater. While there’s some ground to cover, that’s part of the beauty – you’re not just travelling from point A to point B, but experiencing the adventure every step of the way. You’ll be in your own private vehicle with a guide who knows every corner of the parks, making the drives feel like one continuous, exciting game drive.

As our Tanzania specialist, Ottilie, says:

"What makes this trip so special is the perfect mix of safari excitement and beach bliss. You get to experience some of the world’s best wildlife viewing, then head to Zanzibar for a completely different kind of holiday. Whether you’re after thrilling water sports or simply want to unwind, this trip has something for everyone – especially if you’ve got different interests to please!"

Each night, you’ll retreat to luxury safari camps, enjoying comfortable, authentic stays under the stars. After a thrilling day of game drives, gather around the campfire for drinks and dinner, listening to the sounds of the bush as you share stories about the day's encounters.

When it’s time to swap the savannah for the sea, you’ll head to Zanzibar, a tropical paradise offering a completely different kind of escape. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can snorkel or scuba dive in crystal-clear waters, or experience the thrill of kite surfing and parasailing over the Indian Ocean. If that’s not your thing, simply unwind on pristine beaches, soak up the atmosphere, and keep an eye out for dolphins along the coast.

January

January is mixed when it comes to weather, temperatures rise whilst the chance of rain and humidity increases. It is still a good time to go, as the rates are lower yet the game viewing is still excellent.

June heralds the wet season, bringing lush green vegetation which can make spotting game more difficult. It is a particularly great time for birders as parks become populated by migratory birds especially in the South.

Peak season continues into October with good game viewing in the Serengeti and southern parks.

  • The migration has now crossed over into Kenya.
