Inspirational safari & beach holiday to Tanzania and Kenya
This safari and beach holiday combines the excitement of a 2-part Kenyan safari with the tranquil beauty of Zanzibar, all whilst staying in truly luxurious accommodation. With convenient light aircraft flights between the 3 areas, you can transition from one area to the other without any hassle. Begin with a scenic flight over to over the rolling plains north of Mt Kenya for a stay at Lewa Safari Camp.
Set in the Lewa Wildlife Conservancy, this unique and exclusive retreat offers privileged access to 65,000 acres of private protected wilderness and is a globally recognized rhino conservation habitat. It’s home to the largest concentration of Grevy’s zebra in the world, and hosts over 200 Black and White rhinos. Then journey to the Maasai Mara and to Mara Expedition Camp with its ‘back to the classic’ safari design. Enjoy game drives, walking and hot air balloon safaris. It’s a brilliant spot for sightings of lion and cheetah and for witnessing the wildebeest migration (in season). Finish with some well-earned relaxation time on the stunning Zanzibar coastline. Stay at the luxurious Zuri Zanzibar and enjoy the private beach, a host of watersports and luxurious spa treatments.
