Arusha A gentle welcome to Tanzania

Welcome to Arusha and the start of your unforgettable honeymoon!

On arrival at Arusha International Airport, you'll be met by a pickup service ready to take you to your accommodation for the next two nights - the Kerama Silent Lodge. Located just outside Arusha, this lodge offers a peaceful retreat surrounded by natural beauty. It's the perfect place to relax before a safari.

During your time here, you'll visit the Materuni Village on the slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro. Begin your day with a scenic trek through verdant paths leading to the stunning Materuni Waterfalls. After soaking in the beauty and tranquility of the falls, dive into the village’s rich coffee heritage with a private coffee-making tour.

Experience the traditional process from bean to cup as local farmers share their expert knowledge and passion for cultivating some of the world’s finest Arabica coffee.

Tarangire National Park The safari begins

Next it's time to head to Tarangire National Park for the first of many wildlife encounters. Along the way, enjoy the changing landscapes as you leave the town behind and approach the vast wilderness.

You'll be spending one night at the Sangaiwe Tented Lodge nestled at the edge of the park. This eco-conscious lodge offers stylish canvas tents that blend rustic elegance with modern convenience, each featuring en-suite bathrooms, plush beds, and private verandas with sweeping views of the surrounding wilderness.

A game drive is one of the most thrilling ways to experience the African wilderness. Set out in a specially designed 4x4 safari vehicle, accompanied by a knowledgeable guide who helps you track and spot wildlife in their natural habitat. As you traverse through the savannah, woodlands, and riverbeds, keep your eyes peeled for elephants, lions, giraffes, zebras, and possibly even the elusive leopard.

During your time in Tarangire, you'll enjoy morning and afternoon game drives. Each drive is unique—no two sightings are the same—and the unpredictability is part of the magic.

Serengeti The safari continues

Your journey to the Serengeti is a breathtaking transition from the quiet wilderness of Tarangire to the vast, iconic plains of one of Africa’s most celebrated national parks.

As you travel across the heart of Tanzania, the landscape unfolds into wide open savannahs dotted with acacia trees and teeming with wildlife. Along the way, enjoy game drive stops that offer opportunities to spot migrating herds and predators on the move.

For the next two nights you'll be staying at the African Kongoni Serengeti Safari Camp, nestled in the heart of the Serengeti. The camp features spacious, beautifully appointed tents crafted with natural materials and adorned with handcrafted details that reflect the spirit of Africa.

On your first evening, enjoy a sunset game drive and dinner. The soft, amber light casts a warm glow over the landscape, creating the perfect backdrop to witness wildlife in their most active hours. After your drive, return to camp where a candlelit dinner awaits under a blanket of stars.

During your time in the Serengeti you'll explore its vast, golden plains on guided game drives that bring you face-to-face with nature's raw beauty. This is your chance to witness the legendary Big Five—lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino—in their natural habitat. There's also the option to take a sunrise hot air balloon safari over the Serengeti (additional cost). This has to be one of the most magical ways to experience the endless plains!

Ngorongoro Conservation Area Final safari destination

Your journey from the Serengeti to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area is filled with stunning scenery. As you leave the golden plains behind, the landscape gradually transforms—lush highlands, acacia woodlands, and volcanic hills begin to unfold.

Optional stops can add depth to your journey, such as a visit to the Olduvai Gorge Museum, one of the most important paleoanthropological sites in the world.

Tonight you'll be staying at the Kankai Lodge, perched on the edge of the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater. Blending traditional local design with modern elegance, the lodge creates a warm and sophisticated atmosphere perfect for honeymooners and couples seeking romance and adventure.

Continue your wildlife encounters with game drives. Descending into the Ngorongoro Crater is like entering a hidden world teeming with life. This vast, unbroken volcanic caldera is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Africa’s most iconic wildlife destinations. The rich diversity of habitats supports an extraordinary concentration of wildlife—from grazing zebras and wildebeest to prowling lions and elusive black rhinos.

With luck, you may witness a dramatic hunt or a quiet moment between elephant herds. The Ngorongoro Crater offers not just unparalleled game viewing, but a rare glimpse into a thriving ecosystem preserved in time.

Zanzibar Beach time ahead

After your unforgettable experience in the Ngorongoro Crater, your journey continues with a scenic road transfer back to Arusha airport. Your flight to Zanzibar marks the beginning of a new, sun-soaked chapter of your adventure. After days filled with thrilling wildlife encounters and dramatic landscapes, you’ll take to the skies and journey from mainland Tanzania to the idyllic spice island of Zanzibar.

Upon landing, a warm coastal breeze greets you as you step into a world of white-sand beaches, historic charm, and tranquil island rhythms. From this moment on, it’s all about relaxation, romance, and exploring the vibrant culture and natural beauty of this tropical paradise.

For the next six nights you'll be staying at the Amaan Beach Bungalows. Located in the vibrant village of Nungwi, this beachfront resort offers charming bungalows just steps from soft white sands and the crystal-clear waters of the Indian Ocean. Each bungalow features cozy, well-appointed interiors with Swahili-inspired decor, private sea-facing verandas, and modern comforts for a relaxing stay.

Couples can enjoy fresh seafood at the open-air restaurant, unwind with a cocktail while watching the sunset, or simply stroll hand-in-hand along the palm-fringed beach. It’s the ideal way to end your Tanzanian adventure—surrounded by natural beauty, gentle ocean breezes, and the soothing rhythm of island life.

Your honeymoon ends with a final transfer to the airport for your flight home.
