A two week Tanzania honeymoon split into two parts. Week one offers a safari adventure in the Kilimanjaro, Serengeti, the Ngorongoro Crater areas. This is week is not about luxurious accommodation, instead the focus is 100% on optimizing wildlife viewing whilst traveling in your own 4 x 4 safari vehicle. The second week is at the remote and unspoiled Beach Lodge - on the mainland coast of Tanzania: "a unique beach experience on the unspoiled Swahili coastline of Tanzania".
Tour Itinerary:
Day 1: Check in from your home destination for your overnight flight to Nairobi.
Day 2: An arrival into Nairobi, transfer onto Kenya Airways flight to Kilimanjaro (50 min). On arrival you will be met by tour guide. You will depart in your private 4x4 vehicle for Lake Manyara National Park (2,5 hours) and spend rest of the day game viewing. In the evening, exit the park and stay your first night at Lodge (all meals and game viewing activities included).
Day 3: After breakfast depart by road for the Ngorongoro Conservation Area (1,5 hours). Spend the rest of the day wildlife viewing in the Ngorongoro Crater itself. The crater itself is relatively small in diameter (15 kms across) but the terrain it encloses is remarkably diverse - forests, soda lake, open savannas, swamps and scrub land. At the end of the day drive out of the crater, and stay for one night at the Lodge (all meals & game viewing activities included).
Day 4: After breakfast depart by road for the central Serengeti via Olduvai Gorge visitor centre. Spend the rest of the day game viewing and then arrive at the Lodge or Tented Camp.
Days 5-6: Full days game viewing in the Serengeti. When visiting Serengeti, it is very important to stay in the right place, as different areas offer good wildlife viewing at different times of year. The Lodge (and tented camp around) are centrally located, allowing access to the western corridor of the Serengeti (good wildlife in May, June, July), the northern corridor (wildebeest migration best here in July/Aug) and the southern sector near Ndutu (good in Dec, through to March). The central part of the Serengeti (area called Seronera) also has fantastic year round game viewing - some of the best in Africa in fact (the wildebeest migration is not the be all and end all).
Day 7: After breakfast you be dropped at the airstrip for a light aircraft flight from the central Serengeti to Zanzibar .
Days 8 - 13: Full days to relax on the unspoiled beaches at the Beach Lodge. Apart from sunbathing by the pool or on the beach, things to do include, snorkeling, scuba diving, sea kayaking, boogie boarding, deep sea fishing, windsurfing and kite surfing, bicycle hire, dhow sailing to nearby Maziwe Island (where the hotel can set up a lovely private beach picnic - recommended).
Day 14: Day at leisure. In the afternoon, you will be dropped off at the airstrip in time for the short scheduled flight back to Nairobi (Jomo Kenyata International Airport). From here transfer to your Homeland.
