Honeymoon Safari

Tour Description

Begin your newlywed life with the perfect blend of adventure, relaxation and romance while exploring three of Tanzania’s most beautiful national parks and venturing to the white sand beaches of Zanzibar.

Spend one night in Tarangire National Park taking in it’s amazing array of diverse wildlife.  With vast open expanses dotted by Acacia and Baobab trees, this park earns its name from the Tarangire River — the lifeblood flowing through the park, attracting large herds of zebra, antelope, buffalo, and wildebeest in the dry season.

While Tarangire contains the greatest concentration of wildlife outside the Serengeti ecosystem, this park is best known for its unrivaled elephant sightings.  Here in the “Land of the Elephants,” it’s not uncommon to see herds of 20-70 elephants roaming together at once or basking in the park’s burnt orange mud, tinting their skin an ocherous hue.

Next, spend two nights at the Ngorongoro Crater – the world’s largest intact caldera sheltering one of the most breathtaking wildlife havens on earth.  Often described as the 8th wonder of the world, the Crater, measuring 10 miles wide with walls 2,000 feet high, is said to contain the highest density of wildlife in all of Africa.

Its sprawling plains of nutritious short grasses creates the perfect habitat for large herds of zebra and elephants to raise their young, and provides an unbeatable environment for lions and cheetahs to find their next kill.  From sunrise to sunset, the Crater’s sapphire skies dotted with billowy clouds paints an unforgettable backdrop for wildlife viewing year-round.

From there, spend three nights under the twinkling stars of the mighty Serengeti.  With each passing mile in a custom-designed Topguides safari jeep, the scenery changes from rolling mountains to palm-tree dotted shores…acacia woodlands to endless grasslands dappled with rugged kopjes…all personifying the quintessential Africa you see in photographs.

Offering unparalleled wildlife sightings year-round, the Serengeti gives you an incredible opportunity to see the Big Five – lions, elephants, buffalo, leopards, and rhinoceros – and is the best place to witness the largest mammal migration on earth.  While populations fluctuate from year to year during the migration seasons, it’s estimated that 1.3 million wildebeest, 200,000 zebra, and 400,000 gazelle chase the rain across the great Serengeti plains, attracting predator animals to track and follow.

Finally, slow down your adventure with four nights on the stunning desert island of Zanzibar where towering jade palms lazily sway on white sand beaches and kaleidoscopic coral reefs are bedded in shallow turquoise seas.  Here, life moves a little slower, providing you with plenty of time to relax, swim, and enjoy the subtle rhythm of this charming isle, bursting at the seams with history and culture.
