Ideal for travelers looking for a comprehensive Tanzania tour, this itinerary combines the most spectacular and iconic safari destinations with time at the beach for a relaxing end to the tour.

Begin with stay at a luxury lodge near Arusha, an area of lush, mountainous landscapes, Maasai settlements and coffee plantations.

Continue to Tarangire National Park, one of Tanzania’s most interesting game parks, which is famous for its many baobab trees and prolific elephant population. The park’s diverse landscape includes rolling hills, grassy plains, winding rivers, broad wetlands and dense bush. Tarangire is also a birders’ paradise, with more than 550 resident bird species. Stay at a luxury lodge in an exclusive wildlife concession on the edge of the park, and enjoy daily game drives, as well as time to relax, swim in the pool and view game at the lodge’s water hole. Other optional activities include walking safaris, night game drives, private meals in the bush, visiting local schools, meeting Maasai families, hot-air ballooning and excursions to Lake Manyara National Park.

Next, visit spectacular Ngorongoro Crater, a wildlife-filled volcanic caldera that’s part of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area UNESCO World Heritage Site. Stay at a luxury lodge perched on the crater rim, and enjoy panoramic views and exciting game drives inside the crater to spot wildlife such as the Big Five and hippos. Also visit a local village and enjoy a crater walk. If desired, Artisans of Leisure can also arrange philanthropic activities or additional touring in the area, including visits to local markets, coffee plantations or Oldupai (Olduvai) Gorge.

Continue to Singita Grumeti Reserves, a private game concession next to Serengeti National Park, and stay at one of the top luxury lodges in East Africa. The region is known for its abundant wildlife—including elephants, leopards and lions—and prime opportunities for viewing the wildebeest migration. Game drives on the private concession offer unfettered wildlife viewing without the crowds of the neighboring park. If desired, also enjoy walking safaris, sundowners in the bush and night game drives. There will also be plenty of time for spa treatments, gourmet meals, wine tasting, cooking classes, tennis, swimming, archery, stargazing, hiking to an anti-poaching outpost and visits to local villages.

Finish your tour at a luxury beach resort in tropical Zanzibar, an archipelago off the coast of Tanzania. One day, enjoy a guided tour of Stone Town, an ancient Swahili trading town that is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site with a wealth of interesting architecture that blends African, Indian, Arab and Portuguese elements. Also visit Zanzibar’s famed spice plantations, where cloves, cardamom and cinnamon are grown. There will also be time to relax on the powdery white sand beach, swim in the warm turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean, and enjoy optional activities such as snorkeling, diving, deep-sea fishing, dolphin cruises and visits to Jozani Chwaka Bay National Park to see colobus monkeys.
