16 Day Tanzania Safari & Zanzibar Beach Escape

Ultimate 16-Day Tanzania Safari & Zanzibar Beach Escape

Arusha • Tarangire • Ngorongoro Crater • Serengeti • Stone Town • Jambiani

This 16-day Tanzania Safari and Zanzibar Holiday combines the very best of East Africa’s wilderness, culture, and coastline. Perfect for travellers seeking a deeply immersive and varied experience, this itinerary begins at the foothills of Mount Meru before taking you through Tanzania’s iconic Northern Circuit—Arusha National Park, Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater, and the Serengeti—and concludes with pure relaxation on the spice-scented island of Zanzibar.

Begin with gentle acclimatisation in Arusha, including a guided village walk and a walking safari in Arusha National Park. From there, the adventure unfolds with diverse landscapes and exceptional wildlife encounters: ancient baobabs and huge elephant herds in Tarangire, dense wildlife concentrations inside the Ngorongoro Crater, and unforgettable predator sightings on the endless plains of the Serengeti, Africa’s most celebrated national park.

What makes this safari truly unique is the time spent in the Serengeti—multiple days of varied game viewing, a special visit to the Moru Rhino area with TANAPA rangers, flexible schedules, and rich opportunities to observe lions, cheetahs, leopards, elephants, buffalo, and more. Accommodation throughout Northern Tanzania blends comfort, charm, and authentic safari atmosphere.

To complete the journey, fly to Zanzibar, where historic Stone Town and the tranquil beaches of Jambiani offer the perfect balance of culture, relaxation, and optional ocean activities. With four full days on the coast, there is ample time for snorkelling, diving, kite surfing, spice tours, or simply unwinding by the turquoise Indian Ocean.

This itinerary is ideal for couples, families, photographers, honeymooners, and adventurous travellers who want to experience both Tanzania’s legendary wildlife and Zanzibar’s tropical paradise—all in one seamless, expertly curated journey.
