The story of this trip
This is Safari & Romance with a beach stay attached. You are not rushing through the crater to catch a 16:00 flight. You visit Tarangire, spend two nights in the Serengeti and see the crater when the timing allows. Then you spend three nights by the water, so the whole trip feels like one holiday. We match the hotel and camp classes. Balloon flights and spice tours stay optional.
What this safari is for
- A private 4×4, with no convoy
- Two nights in the Serengeti, not a day trip
- The Ngorongoro Crater
- A flight to Zanzibar
- Three beach nights

Day by day
This is a working route. We confirm the camps and pace on your quote, within 24 hours.
Arrive in Arusha
Rest after your flight. We go through the trip with you over a drink.
Tarangire at a slow pace
You stop for the light, with no convoy to follow, and take photographs without other vehicles in your frame.
Into the Serengeti
We do not go down into the crater today. You arrive in the Serengeti with fresh batteries and good light for an evening drive.
Serengeti
We stay in the central Serengeti unless your dates need a seasonal camp. A balloon flight costs extra and means a 04:30 start, so book it only if you both want it.
Serengeti morning, then towards the crater
We do not make you pay a second conservation fee within the same 24 hours. You sleep on the rim or in Karatu, as quoted.
Ngorongoro Crater
You have a picnic on the crater floor. Then you return to the rim without a village stop, unless you asked for one.
Fly to Zanzibar
If they do not, we add a night. Your three beach nights start from the day you land, whatever the timetable allows.
Zanzibar beach
There is nothing to do today, and that is the point.
Zanzibar
We quote these if you want them. Stone Town can replace one beach night.
Depart Zanzibar
ZNZ has good connections. Please tell us your international flight before we confirm your last safari morning.

Ten days is the shortest bush-and-beach trip that we would still call unhurried. For a shorter option, see Safari to Zanzibar.
