This 11-day Kenya, Tanzania, and Zanzibar safari combines the drama of the Great Migration, classic Big Five wildlife viewing, and a relaxing Indian Ocean beach escape. The journey begins in Kenya’s world-famous Masai Mara, where August offers excellent chances to see wildebeest herds, zebras, lions, cheetahs, elephants, and possible river crossing activity. Guests also enjoy a Maasai village visit and an unforgettable hot air balloon safari over the Mara plains.
From the Mara, the safari continues into Northern Serengeti, one of the best migration areas during the July to October season. Here, the Mara River region offers some of East Africa’s most exciting wildlife encounters. The adventure then moves south into Central Serengeti, known for its endless plains, resident wildlife, and exceptional predator sightings throughout the year.
The safari continues to the spectacular Ngorongoro Crater, one of Africa’s most remarkable natural wildlife arenas, with chances to see rhinos, lions, buffaloes, hippos, and rich birdlife within the crater floor. After the safari, guests fly to Zanzibar for a relaxing beach stay at Royal Zanzibar Beach Resort. The island experience includes leisure time by the ocean, a guided Stone Town tour, a spice plantation visit, a full-day Blue Safari adventure, and a dolphin tour along Zanzibar’s beautiful coast.
This itinerary is ideal for travellers who want a complete East African experience: migration safari, cultural encounters, iconic landscapes, luxury beach relaxation, and unforgettable wildlife moments across Kenya, Tanzania, and Zanzibar.
