Journey overview

Northern wildlife encounters and a beach finale

This combination pairs a short Northern Circuit safari with four nights on Zanzibar. It suits guests looking for headline wildlife regions and a comfortable island conclusion in a single week-plus journey.

The safari covers Arusha, Tarangire and Ngorongoro; the Serengeti can be added as an optional extension.

Every Dastel Tour and Safaris journey is private and tailor-made. The lodges and hotels named in the itinerary are proposed and confirmed with your quotation, which is priced for your travel dates and group size.
