Tanzania Holidays

Tanzania combines the world's greatest wildlife safaris with the spice-island beaches of Zanzibar.

About Tanzania

Tanzania is two trips in one. Mainland Tanzania holds the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater — two of Africa's most iconic safari destinations, and the only places to witness the Great Migration. Off the coast, Zanzibar offers Indian Ocean beaches with a Swahili-Arab cultural overlay you won't find anywhere else: Stone Town's narrow alleys, spice plantations, dhows on the horizon, and powder-white sand at Nungwi, Kendwa and Paje.

The classic Tanzania holiday is "safari + beach" — 4-5 nights in the Serengeti or Ngorongoro followed by 5-7 nights in Zanzibar.

Best Time to Visit

June to October for safari (dry season, peak wildlife viewing). Zanzibar: June to September and December to February.

How to Get There

Kilimanjaro International (JRO) for safari; Zanzibar International (ZNZ) for beach. Direct from Johannesburg (Airlink, Kenya Airways) and Cape Town (KLM via Nairobi).
