6 Day Tanzania Safari & Zanzibar Combo

Tour Overview

This pairs a shortened Northern Tanzania safari with a Zanzibar beach stay - the most requested combination for travellers who want both wildlife and a beach finish in one trip. The safari portion covers Tarangire and the Ngorongoro Crater; extend the safari days separately if you'd like to add the Serengeti.
