11 Day Mid-Range Honeymoon Safari in Tanzania & Zanzibar

Safari 11 days Private
Overview

A romantic honeymoon that balances game drives in Tarangire, the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater with a quiet day above the Rift Valley and four nights on a Zanzibar beach.

A romantic 11-day honeymoon combining Tanzania’s national parks with Zanzibar’s beaches. It starts near Arusha, Tanzania’s safari hub, then visits Tarangire, the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater — known for their high wildlife density and Big Five sightings — balancing game drives with relaxing lodge stays. It ends in Zanzibar with white-sand beaches, turquoise water, spice culture and sunsets: one of the most complete honeymoon experiences in Africa.
