Embark on a once-in-a-lifetime Tanzania Safari with White Horse Safaris, exploring the country’s most iconic wildlife destinations and pristine beaches. This 12-day journey offers the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation, taking you from the rugged savannahs of northern Tanzania to the turquoise waters of Zanzibar.
Your safari begins at Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO), where our friendly team greets you upon arrival. After a short briefing, your exciting journey into Tanzania’s wild heart begins.
Start your adventure in Tarangire National Park, a haven for wildlife and home to enormous herds of elephants. The park’s ancient baobab trees dominate the landscape, while the Tarangire River provides a lifeline for countless species during the dry season. Here, you’ll encounter lions, leopards, giraffes, zebras, and graceful antelopes. Moreover, the park’s dramatic sunsets make for unforgettable photo opportunities.
Next, descend into the magnificent Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site often described as the “Garden of Eden.” This vast volcanic caldera is home to an incredible variety of wildlife, including the Big Five — lion, elephant, leopard, buffalo, and rhino. The crater’s lush grasslands and sparkling lakes offer the perfect setting for game drives and photography.
Continue to Serengeti National Park, Tanzania’s most celebrated wildlife reserve and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Spanning endless plains and acacia-dotted woodlands, the Serengeti hosts the Great Migration, where millions of wildebeest and zebras thunder across the savannah in search of greener pastures. Every game drive reveals something extraordinary — from prowling lions to elegant giraffes and swift cheetahs.
Finally, conclude your Tanzania Safari with a flight to Zanzibar, where turquoise waters meet soft white sands. Settle into a luxury resort in Paje Beach and enjoy days filled with snorkeling, spice tours, and pure relaxation. Whether you unwind on the beach or explore Stone Town’s culture, Zanzibar provides the perfect finale to your adventure.
Optional upgrades include additional nights, single supplements, or luxury lodge enhancements.
