Introduction to Serengeti Safari & Zanzibar Tours
The Serengeti National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site spanning 14,750 km², is the crown jewel of Tanzania wildlife tours, renowned for the Great Migration of over 1.5 million wildebeest and zebras. This iconic African safari adventure offers unmatched opportunities to see the Big Five—lions, elephants, buffaloes, leopards, and rhinos—alongside cheetahs, hyenas, and over 500 bird species. Combined with a Zanzibar beach holiday, where turquoise waters and coral reefs await, our Tanzania safari packages deliver the ultimate safari and beach experience. From thrilling game drives to serene Zanzibar snorkeling and diving, this journey blends adventure and relaxation seamlessly.
With Capable Africa Tours, your Serengeti safari packages include guided tours, luxury accommodations, and seamless transitions to Zanzibar’s white-sand beaches. Whether it’s a Tanzania family safari or a safari & Zanzibar honeymoon, our itineraries cater to all travelers seeking an authentic African wilderness and coastal escape.
Why Choose a Serengeti Safari & Zanzibar Combo
The safari and Zanzibar combo is the perfect way to experience Tanzania’s diverse landscapes and cultures. In Serengeti, guided safari tours take you through vast savannahs to witness the Great Migration, visit Maasai villages, and explore the Ngorongoro Crater’s unique ecosystem. After the thrill of a wildlife safari Tanzania, relax on Zanzibar’s beaches, where you can enjoy snorkeling, diving, or cultural tours in Stone Town. This combination offers a balance of adrenaline and tranquility, ideal for Tanzania family safaris or romantic getaways like a safari & Zanzibar honeymoon.
Capable Africa Tours ensures a seamless experience with expert guides, eco-friendly lodges, and tailored itineraries. Add a Kilimanjaro trek & safari for an even more comprehensive adventure, blending wildlife, culture, and mountaineering.
