Suggested 10-Day Tanzania Safari and Zanzibar Itinerary
Day 1: Arrival and Overnight in Arusha
Arrive at Kilimanjaro International Airport and transfer to your selected accommodation in Arusha. Allow time to rest after your flight and prepare for the safari.
Your arrival time will determine whether any additional activities are practical.
Day 2: Arusha to Tarangire National Park
Depart for Tarangire for your first day of game viewing. Spend time exploring the park with your guide before continuing to your overnight accommodation.
The day’s schedule should allow for the journey, park formalities, wildlife stops, and lunch.
Day 3: Travel to Serengeti National Park
Continue toward the Serengeti through the northern circuit. This is a substantial travel day, so the route and departure time matter.
Depending on your accommodation location and arrival time, enjoy game viewing before settling into camp.
Day 4: Serengeti Safari
Dedicate the day to exploring the Serengeti with your guide. Plan game drives around your interests, wildlife activity, and the location of your camp.
Wildlife sightings are unpredictable. If the Great Migration is your priority, request an itinerary designed around its expected seasonal location.
Day 5: Serengeti to the Ngorongoro Area
Enjoy further wildlife viewing as the schedule permits before traveling toward your accommodation near Ngorongoro.
Your overnight location should support the following day’s crater visit while keeping driving distances manageable.
Day 6: Ngorongoro Crater and Return to Arusha
Explore Ngorongoro Crater on a game drive, then return to Arusha for an overnight stay.
Keeping this overnight before the beach transfer gives the itinerary a more comfortable pace than combining a crater excursion with a tightly timed flight.
Day 7: Fly to Zanzibar
Transfer to the appropriate airport for your confirmed flight to Zanzibar. On arrival, continue to your beach accommodation.
The departure airport, flight schedule, baggage allowance, and transfers should all appear in your final travel documents.
Days 8–9: Zanzibar Beach Stay
Enjoy two days at your own pace. You can keep your schedule open or request optional excursions.
Zanzibar’s tourism authorities highlight Stone Town, Forodhani Garden, and Jozani Forest among the island’s cultural and nature attractions. Activities should be selected according to your interests and hotel location. visitzanzibar.go.tz
Day 10: Departure
Transfer to Zanzibar airport for your onward journey. Arrange pickup around your confirmed flight and your hotel’s location.
What Determines Your Package Price?
A useful safari quotation should explain exactly what you are paying for. Your total depends on:
- Travel dates and accommodation availability.
- Number of travelers sharing the safari vehicle and rooms.
- Number of nights on safari and in Zanzibar.
- Lodge, camp, and beach hotel choices.
- Domestic flights and baggage requirements.
- Included meals, transfers, park visits, and excursions.
Request a written quote with named accommodation, room types, meal plans, and clear inclusions before booking.
What Should Your Quote Include?
Ask your Tanzania safari and Zanzibar operator to specify the safari vehicle, guiding arrangements, accommodation, park fees, meals, drinking water, airport transfers, and any domestic flights.
Also check which costs remain payable separately, including optional activities, drinks, tips, personal expenses, and applicable entry or insurance requirements. An “all-inclusive” description needs a precise written explanation.
