Tanzania Family Safari Green Season (10n) – Classic

On Day 1 of your adventure, you’ll touch down at Kilimanjaro International Airport, receiving a VIP Meet and Greet. From here, you’ll fly to Lake Manyara Airport, where you’ll be met by a private guide, in a private vehicle. This guide will be with you throughout your time in the Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro region! On your way to your accommodation at The Plantation Lodge, you’ll enjoy a game drive in Lake Manyara National Park. Highlights of this park include big game such as tree-climbing lions and vast flocks of flamingos settling on the shores to feed! The lodge features a characterful lounge, dining area, and bar. There’s a courtyard too, as well as gardens and a swimming pool. You’ll stay in the family unit, known as Bamboo. This option offers two bedrooms, a shared bathroom, and a charming inner quadrangle complete with seating nook. During the remainder of your stay here, you’ll have time for a vehicle safari in the Ngorongoro Crater, home to all Big Five, numerous smaller mammals, and ample birdlife! And you might like to enjoy a few on-site activities too, such as a guided walk amidst the lodge’s coffee plantations and a visit to a nearby farm.

Board basis and activities:
Full-board accommodation, including all meals, a selection of alcoholic and soft drinks, and a laundry service. Game driving in Lake Manyara National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater is also included from your private vehicle accompanied by a private guide.

On the third day of your trip, you’ll return to Lake Manyara Airport via private road transfer and fly to Lake Ndutu Airstrip, before a shared road transfer to Lemala Ndutu. This is one of our favourite Great Migration mobile camps! Located in the southern plains from December through to March, the camp focuses on the huge herds of herbivores as well as the local predators. Travel in February, and you’ll have opportunities to witness the Great Migration calving season, when approximately half a million wildebeest are born in a matter of weeks. The main activity is game drives, and there’s a wealth of wildlife to see in addition to the vast migration herds. There’s also the excellent ‘Lemala Cubs Club’, where children can go on nature walks around camp with the Maasai, as well as building their own bows and arrows for archery in front of the mess tent! You’ll stay in a two-bedroom tented suite, which consists of two Meru-style tents linked by a private living area.

Board basis and activities:
All-inclusive accommodation, featuring all meals, a selection of alcoholic and soft drinks, shared game drives, transfers between the camp and Lake Ndutu Airstrip, Wi-Fi, and a laundry service.

Come Day 7 of your holiday, you’ll have a shared road transfer to Lake Ndutu Airstrip and fly out to Zanzibar. From the international airport, you’ll transfer privately to Breezes Beach Club & Spa. This gorgeous property is situated on the south-east coast of the island and it’s the perfect place to relax after your time on safari. There are some great restaurants, a spa, and a swimming pool! You’ll stay in a standard room, a spacious option benefiting from air conditioning, many other amenities, and a private terrace with garden views. The nearby beach is superb for sunbathing and sandcastle building, but if you’re feeling more energetic there are lots of other activities to keep everyone occupied. Breezes has some of Zanzibar’s best snorkelling and calmest waters right on its doorstep, and the resort offers loads of other watersports and land sports too.

Half-board accommodation, including breakfast and dinner, use of gym and tennis court, and internet in public areas and rooms.
