8 Day Serengeti Safari and Zanzibar Beach Holiday 2026–2027
Discover the beauty of East Africa with our 8 Day Serengeti Safari and Zanzibar Beach Holiday, a memorable combination of African wildlife adventures and relaxing tropical beaches organized by African Trek & Travel. Explore the world famous Serengeti National Park with a professional local safari guide, enjoy private wildlife game drives and look for lions, cheetahs, leopards, elephants, giraffes, wildebeest and zebras before flying to Zanzibar Island. Complete your journey with four nights at a selected beach hotel beside the Indian Ocean.
Our recommended 8 Day Serengeti Safari and Zanzibar Beach Holiday includes three nights in Serengeti and four nights in Zanzibar. The safari begins with a suitable domestic flight from Arusha to an appropriate Serengeti airstrip, where you meet your arranged wildlife guide and continue to your selected lodge or permanent tented camp. Spend the next two days enjoying dedicated Serengeti game drives through grasslands, woodland habitats and areas known for wildlife activity. Your guide can help identify animals, explain their behavior and select suitable routes according to the season and national park regulations.
After your Serengeti wildlife adventure, continue to Zanzibar on a scheduled domestic flight itinerary, potentially with intermediate stops or a connection through Arusha. Zanzibar offers a contrasting tropical experience with white sand beaches, ocean scenery, selected beachfront accommodation and optional cultural excursions. Guests can request hotels near Nungwi, Kendwa, Paje, Jambiani or another preferred beach area. Enjoy relaxing coastal days, historic Stone Town, spice farm visits, suitable marine excursions and beautiful island landscapes.
The 8 Day Serengeti Safari and Zanzibar Beach Holiday is suitable for honeymoon couples, families, solo travelers, wildlife photographers and small private groups. Accommodation can be customized from comfortable mid range safari lodges and furnished tented camps to premium wilderness properties and luxury Zanzibar beach resorts. On the mainland, a private safari vehicle can be arranged for your booking party. Some flying safari lodge packages use shared game drives, so an exclusive vehicle should always be specified when requested.
Travelers who want to include Tarangire National Park and Ngorongoro Crater can request a different eight day northern circuit and Zanzibar itinerary. This alternative typically includes four mainland accommodation nights and three Zanzibar nights, with substantial road travel to Serengeti. For guests who want more dedicated time in Serengeti and more relaxation on the coast, the recommended three Serengeti night and four Zanzibar night fly in package offers a more comfortable balance.
African Trek & Travel can organize the 8 Day Serengeti Safari and Zanzibar Beach Holiday for suitable dates in late 2026 and throughout 2027. Our team can assist with safari accommodation, private guiding, flight connections, airport transfers, Zanzibar hotels, selected meal plans and optional activities.
