SERENGETI & ZANZIBAR, TANZANIA

Where Untamed Plains Meet Turquoise Shores

Tanzania offers a journey of magnificent contrasts, and this twin centre escape captures both its wild heart and its idyllic coast in a single unforgettable trip. Begin in the heart of the Serengeti with two nights at Four Seasons Safari Lodge Serengeti, an intimate retreat perched above a waterhole in the very centre of the action, before journeying onward to the powder white sands of Zanzibar’s north shore for five nights of all inclusive island indulgence at Royal Zanzibar Beach Resort, where spice scented breezes and the timeless charm of Swahili hospitality bring the adventure to a close.

Itinerary Overview

Serengeti with 2 Nights at Four Seasons Safari Lodge Serengeti, Tanzania

Fly into the Serengeti National Park for a shared game drive to the lodge, settling into a beautifully appointed Savannah Room before an afternoon game drive and dinner under the stars. The following day brings a full day of shared morning and afternoon game drives across the Serengeti’s vast, unbroken plains in search of the Big Five, with time between drives to enjoy the lodge’s infinity pool, elegant spa and soaring views over a resident waterhole frequented by elephant and giraffe. On the final morning, a last game drive leads to the airstrip for the connecting flight onward to Zanzibar.

Highlights at the Serengeti:

• Track lion, leopard, elephant and the great herds of the Serengeti plains on shared morning and afternoon game drives.
• Relax on your private terrace and watch wildlife gather at the lodge’s waterhole, often visible without leaving your room.
• Unwind at the lodge’s spa or beside the infinity pool, framed by uninterrupted views across the savannah.
• Stargaze from the open plains, far from any light pollution, for a truly unforgettable night sky.
• Optional: Take to the skies at dawn on a hot air balloon safari, drifting silently above the migrating herds.
