100% customisable for you
On your arrival into Tanzania, you will be met at Dar es Salaam airport by our on the ground representative, who will privately transfer you to your hotel Ras Kutani, which is around two hours away. Once you get there and check in you'll want to settle into your luxurious surroundings and enjoy a cool drink in the sun. Sit back and absorb the views out towards the brilliant blue lagoon which neighbours the hotel - welcome to Tanzania!
This morning you'll be collected from the hotel by a little private plane and flown back to Dar es Salaam, where you will then pick up another short flight to Ruaha. From here it's time to get your safari on and discover the unadulterated wilderness. Hit the ground running and head out on your first game drive late this afternoon. Your expert ranger will be tracking buffalo, giraffe, lion and leopard (to name just a few) so you should get plenty of fantastic sightings. As darkness falls, head back to camp for drinks around the camp fire and hearty African feast in the dining room.
This morning you will head to the Selous Game Reserve, a bona-fide UNESCO World Heritage Site situated south-east of Ruaha. To get there you'll be boarding one of the little planes you'll have become accustomed to by now for a short flight. After being met by a driver and escorted the last leg of your journey by jeep you'll arrive at Siwandu, on the banks of Lake Nzerakera. After checking in, sit and sip a cool drink on the wooden veranda as the sun sets and wildlife saunters past - we're talking safari armchair style!
The islands are calling and after the sheer excitement of all those animal sightings it's time to put your feet up again (or more aptly down, into soft sand) today. After two short flights, via Dar es Salaam, you'll find yourself landing on Zanzibar Island, surrounded by sugar white sand, azure blue water and palm trees rustling in the breeze. Spend the next few days swimming, sunbathing, kite surfing or deep sea fishing. You'll also want to take a snorkelling trip around the island one day, and on another, simply sit poolside with a cocktail after a pampering spa session. End the holiday in style with a private beach dinner and watch the sun set over the ocean.
