In a few words

Discover Tanzania and Zanzibar on an exceptional journey, perfect for a family getaway. Your adventure begins at Lake Natron , in the heart of Maasai country , where thousands of pink flamingos paint the landscape.

You then plunge into the vastness of the bush for two full days of safari in the heart of Serengeti National Park . This is your chance to observe lions, wildebeest, giraffes, and elephants in their natural habitat. The journey continues to the spectacular Ngorongoro Crater , a unique caldera teeming with incredibly dense wildlife. After a final exploration in Manyara , famous for its tree-climbing lions, a domestic flight takes you to the shores of the Indian Ocean.

The island of Zanzibar welcomes you for a week of active relaxation. From north to southeast, you'll explore its spice gardens , the Jozani rainforest, and its pristine mangroves. White sand beaches invite you to unwind, while turquoise waters offer an ideal playground for swimming among corals and colorful fish. A perfect balance between wild exploration and tropical paradise.

The highlights

  • Safari in the Serengeti Parks, Lake Natron and the Ngorongoro Crater
  • Discovering the Island of Zanzibar from north to south
  • Observation of red colobus monkeys in the Josani forest (Zanzibar)

The expert's opinion

No physical difficulties are involved, as we primarily travel by vehicle in Tanzania's largest parks. However, safari departures are very early. Swimming skills are required for the hike to the waterfall (note that there are some steep sections). The Zanzibar portion is easy and relaxing, with two free days.


Management

During this stay, a supervisor will be present to guide and assist you.

Note

This itinerary is provided as a guide only: depending on weather and operational conditions, your tour guide may modify this itinerary for your comfort and safety and that of the group.

  1. Park entry permits are valid for 24-hour periods. The guide therefore imposes a specific time limit. Any exceeding of this time will require paying for an additional day.
  2. Please note that for our camping tours, we ask for a contribution for the setup and takedown of the camp (itinerant camping) and for the loading and unloading of vehicles.


This trip is combined with a shorter version without Zanzibar, so you might meet participants from that trip during yours.

Accommodation

During this stay, you will sleep in several different accommodations.

Domestic flights*:

Departure from Arusha on Day 9 in the evening at 5:00 PM or 7:40 PM generally: Arrival in Zanzibar the same day at 6:20 PM or 8:40 PM

(Flight possible on the morning of Day 10). The return domestic flight does not necessarily go through Arusha.


* In accordance with our duty to inform and be transparent with our travellers, we inform you that all airlines certified in Tanzania are currently on the list of air carriers banned from operating in the European Union, established by the European Commission.

This ban does not affect their right to operate locally in Tanzania, nor their authorization to conduct domestic flights (mainland-Zanzibar in particular). It simply means that they cannot fly to or from Europe.

No similar restrictions are in place from other major international authorities (American, Asian, etc.).

We have chosen to maintain these domestic flights for practical and logistical reasons, relying on local companies that we consider reliable and regularly used on site, such as Precision Air or Air Tanzania.

INTERNATIONAL TRANSPORT:

For Tanzania, we use scheduled flights departing from Paris, operating year-round at fixed times. You will travel with airlines such as Ethiopian Airlines, Turkish Airlines, Kenya Airways, KLM, Air France, or RwandAir, chosen based on availability at the time of your booking.

We prioritize the most economical solution , which may sometimes involve a flight with two layovers. You will always be offered two options so you can choose the route that best suits your needs.


Other companies besides those mentioned above may also be offered to you depending on availability.

There are no direct flights to Tanzania. Flights are usually overnight, meaning you arrive at your destination the following day.

IMPORTANT: This information is for guidance only. Airlines and flight schedules may vary depending on availability at the time of your registration.
