15 Days Kenya, Tanzania & Zanzibar Grand Tour
Eleven days of safari across the Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire, finishing with four nights on Zanzibar — the classic bucket-list shape, run end to end by one operator.
Overview
The trip most people describe when they say they want to see East Africa: the great reserves of two countries, then the Indian Ocean. Eleven safari days take you through the Maasai Mara, across the border into the Serengeti, down into the Ngorongoro Crater and on to Tarangire. Then you fly to Zanzibar and stop moving for four nights.
Running it as one trip rather than two bookings is the point: one team holds the whole chain, including the internal flight and the island transfers, and there is nobody to blame each other if a connection slips.
Highlights
Day-by-Day Itinerary
Collection in Nairobi and the drive south-west through the Rift Valley, arriving for an afternoon game drive.

Activities
A morning game drive, then Arusha for the night before the island flight.
Activities
A short flight to the island, then the afternoon on foot in Stone Town: the old quarter, the seafront and the market.
Activities
A spice farm on the way out of town, Jozani Forest for the red colobus found nowhere else, then the north coast.
Activities
A day that asks nothing of you. Snorkelling at Mnemba, a sunset dhow or a hammock, entirely as you prefer.
Activities
Breakfast, a last swim if the timing allows, and the transfer to the airport for your onward flight.
