Tanzania and Zanzibar Family Holiday

After a refreshing breakfast on the foothills of Mount Meru, your safari adventure begins! Your driver will meet you and transfer you to the wildlife mecca, Ngorongoro Crater. En route, you can enjoy a game drive through Lake Manyara National Park – home to Tanzania’s tree-climbing lions – and enjoy a picnic lunch overlooking the flamingo adorned shores of Lake Manyara’s soda-ash lake. Your journey continues as you make your way through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area to The Manor at Ngorongoro. Located within the Shangri-La estate, this intimate farm-style lodge offers guests an exclusive stay with just 18 luxurious cottages dispersed throughout the grounds. A highlight of your stay will be a safari experience in the world-famous Ngorongoro Crater followed by a picnic luncheon on the crater floor. The crater is home to a plethora of wildlife including resident lion, leopard and cheetah as well as wildebeest, buffalo, zebra, rhino and hyena.

Your safari experience continues as you journey to Serengeti National Park. After a hearty breakfast overlooking the Crater floor, your driver will meet you and transfer you to the ultra-luxurious Serengeti Pioneer Camp, an environmentally sensitive tented camp located within the Moru Kopjes. It is here that the desires of any safari enthusiast are realised and guests can enjoy direct access to the annual Great Wildebeest Migration and Africa’s legendary Big 5 – lion, leopard, rhino, buffalo and elephant. During your stay, you can explore this wildlife sanctuary on expertly led safari game drives as well as a bucket list worthy hot air balloon ride over the Serengeti.

Today marks your final day on safari. After breakfast, your driver will accompany you to the Seronera airstrip for your scheduled flight to the tropical island of Zanzibar. Touch down in Zanzibar where a resort representative will greet you and accompany you to Gold Zanzibar Beach House & Spa. Located on Kendwa beach in the far north-east of the island, Gold Zanzibar offers luxurious beachfront accommodation with two on-site restaurants, Healing Earth Spa and an outdoor swimming pool overlooking the beach. For the next four days, you can soak up the very best of island living and enjoy family time on the safe swimming beach, or venture further afield to the island’s lush spice plantations and historical Stone Town. The price is based on booking 61 days and more prior to arrival.
