Even in as little as a week, you can experience Tanzania's most famous highlights: safari adventures and tropical beaches. Start with the wildlife as you embark on game drives across the savannas of Serengeti National Park to spot lions, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, and more. Then spend a few days relaxing in Zanzibar, an oasis of white-sand beaches and coral atolls nestled amid a sea of sapphire and crystalline waters.
This 10-day adventure combines the best safari locations in Tanzania with beach time in gorgeous Zanzibar. However, before relaxing on those white sands, you'll test yourself on a day hike up Kilimanjaro, the tallest mountain in Africa. In between, you'll embark on unforgettable safaris in the Ngorongoro Crater and legendary Serengeti.
Get ready for a safari adventure in Africa that covers not one incredible country but two. It begins in Kenya with visits to elephant and giraffe sanctuaries, plus a camping trip with tribal warriors. After viewing wildebeests and gazelles at the Masai Mara Reserve, you'll hop the border into Tanzania for a safari on the famous Serengeti to see lions, leopards, and more. The trip culminates with a drive over the volcanic crater at Ngorongoro to witness black rhinos in the wild.
You can't beat this itinerary for a trip that combines African cultural immersion with safari fun. It starts with some beach time in Zanzibar before hitting the road on off-the-beaten-path routes between cities in Tanzania. After relaxing at Lake Victoria, you'll cross over to Kenya for game drives in the famous Maasai Mara Reserve, plus spend time in tribal villages and participate in Maasai warrior ceremonies.
Experience one of the true gems of the Indian Ocean with a visit to the tropical paradise of Zanzibar. Over seven days, you'll enjoy this island's famed white-sand beaches plus discover its rich culture and cuisine on tours of its historic center. Finish the trip on the unspoiled island of Pemba for some snorkeling, fishing, and communing with nature far from the stress of the modern world.
Adventurous travelers who love the idea of climbing an African mountain but who don't want an extremely challenging experience will enjoy this four-day climb of Mt. Meru. Most days will include a few hours of hiking, while on the long summit day, you'll start in the middle of the night and be rewarded by sweeping views over the plains toward Mt. Kilimanjaro. Spot wildlife, trek through different vegetation zones, and afterward, relax at the beautiful and historic Rivertrees Country Inn.

Discover Tanzania's diverse landscapes and wildlife on a 10-day adventure with game drives and walking safaris in four national parks. Kick off in Arusha with a bush walk in search of bushbabies and chameleons. Then, transfer to Tarangire National Park for a game drive along the river. See the Big Five in Serengeti National Park and spot nocturnal creatures before looking for the endangered black rhino in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and tree-climbing lions in Lake Manyara National Park.
In just over a week, explore the vibrant city of Arusha and three of Tanzania's pristine natural landscapes in search of wildlife. Discover the city with a half-day tour, hike to Mount Meru Waterfall, and canoe on Lake Duluti. Then, set off on game drives in Tarangire National Park and Serengeti National Park. Spend two days witnessing thousands of wildebeest and zebras make the Great Migration before ending with a game drive in Ngorongoro Crater to see the Big Five and a flamboyance of flamingoes.
Three weeks in East Africa gives you time to hop between numerous national parks and conservation areas in two to three countries. Kenya and Tanzania are the most popular options, and for good reason, considering they're home to the Ngorongoro Crater, Zanzibar, and Serengeti and Tarangire National Parks. If you're eager to spot chimpanzees and gorillas in the wild, swap in Uganda's Bwindi Impenetrable and Kibale National Parks, or consider Rwanda for immersive cultural experiences.
