Tanzania Honeymoon Safari Green Season (11n) – Classic

The first two nights of your trip will be spent at Plantation Lodge, a characterful little property situated in a coffee plantation within the foothills of the magnificent Ngorongoro Crater. On Day 1, you can go on game drives in Lake Manyara National Park, which, following on from the light rains during November and December, makes this beautiful little spot a birder’s paradise. Perhaps take some time to check out the little towns of Karatu and Mto Wa Mbu too! On Day 2, you can travel to the Crater for some incredibly good game viewing. In between activities, you can enjoy together time in the Lodge’s Jacaranda Suite, also known as the Honeymoon Suite. Wonderfully luxurious, Jacaranda has its own terrace and is positioned at a distance from all the other accommodation.

Board basis and activities:
Full-board accommodation including all meals, soft drinks, a collection of house alcoholic 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.

For the next part of your trip, you will fly to the southern plains of the Serengeti, for four nights at Serengeti Safari Camp. This is the oldest mobile camp in the area and one that offers a truly authentic under-canvas experience! Your time here will be focused on the Great Migration and the incredible predator action that plays out alongside it. Travel in February will offer the best chance of witnessing the herds calving, when around half a million wildebeest are born over the course of just a few short weeks. The accommodation consists of six walk-in tents complete with eco-flush toilet and bucket shower. A stay here provides a taste of classic safari and memories that you will treasure – a very exciting start to married life!

Board basis and activities:
Fully inclusive of meals, selected house alcoholic drinks, soft drinks, a laundry service, and standard game drives from a shared open-sided 4×4 game drive vehicle.

The final part of the itinerary flies you to Zanzibar for five nights at Matlai Boutique Hotel. Situated in the Michamvi Peninsula area on the scenic south-east coast, this property is a YZ favourite! Family owned and run, it has just four guest rooms, including a honeymoon room, and a very exclusive feel. All accommodation is positioned within grounds just a short stroll from the beautiful beach. You can spend your time here simply relaxing on the pure white sands, or getting active with snorkelling, beach volleyball, or even boules! Then you can sit down to a traditional Swahili meal every evening, watching the sunset over the sea.

Board basis and activities:
Full board with three meals, afternoon tea or coffee, water, and soft drinks. Butler service featuring personalised in-room check-in, luggage handling, in-room meals, beach service, and private open-air cinema!

On Day 12, you will be transferred through to Zanzibar’s airport for your international flight home.
