10-Day Luxury Wildebeest Migration Safari & Zanzibar Escape
Experience the ultimate luxury Wildebeest Migration Safari and Zanzibar Escape, a carefully curated 10-day journey through Northern Tanzania’s most iconic wildlife destinations, followed by an indulgent beach retreat on the shores of Zanzibar. Designed for discerning travelers, this itinerary blends exceptional game viewing, elegant accommodations, and breathtaking landscapes with seamless comfort.
Serengeti – The Stage of the Great Migration
Your adventure begins in the legendary Serengeti, where one of nature’s most dramatic spectacles unfolds — the annual Wildebeest Migration. Vast golden plains come alive as thousands of wildebeest thunder across the savannah, shadowed by lions, cheetahs, and crocodiles. This is raw Africa at its most powerful, offering unforgettable game-viewing moments from sunrise to sunset.
Explore the Ngorongoro Crater – A Natural Wonder
Next, descend into the magnificent Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site formed by a long-extinct volcano. This lush, wildlife-rich caldera provides extraordinary close-up encounters with elephants, lions, buffalos, and rare black rhinos, while flocks of flamingos add splashes of color to the crater lakes. Few places in Africa offer such dense and diverse wildlife viewing in one setting.
Zanzibar – Island Bliss
After thrilling safari adventures, fly to the exotic island of Zanzibar, where the rhythm of the Indian Ocean sets the pace. Relax in luxury beachfront accommodation, swim in crystal-clear turquoise waters, explore the historic alleys of Stone Town, or simply unwind beneath swaying palm trees. This tropical escape provides the perfect contrast to your safari experience.

🔹 Our prices explained +
Our safari prices are carefully calculated to offer the best value for money while maintaining high standards of safety, comfort, and service. Prices may vary based on the following factors:
Travel season
Safari prices are higher during peak wildlife seasons (June–October and festive holidays) due to increased demand and higher lodge and park fees. Traveling in shoulder or green seasons offers better value with fewer crowds.
Group size
All our safaris are conducted in a private 4×4 safari vehicle with a professional guide. Smaller groups have a higher per-person cost because vehicle and guide expenses are shared among fewer travelers, while larger groups benefit from better per-person value.
Park fees and conservation costs
National park entry fees, crater service fees, and government taxes are fixed costs set by authorities and can change by season or park.
Accommodation selection
Lodge and camp prices vary by season, location, and availability. Migration camps, crater-rim lodges, and beachfront resorts naturally cost more than standard options.
Private safari experience
Unlike shared group tours, our prices reflect a fully private safari experience, allowing flexibility in pace, routing, and wildlife viewing — without compromise.
We price our safaris to ensure fair compensation for our guides, well-maintained vehicles, and reliable operations, while offering travelers an authentic, memorable safari experience.
If you’re traveling with children, in a larger group, or have flexible travel dates, we’re happy to tailor the best possible value for your safari.
