Combine safari games drives in Tanzania with an idyllic Zanzibar escape on a seven or 12-night getaway - with all travel, a choice of board, and more

Thick with dense and ancient forests, wild with iconic animals and baked by intense sunshine, Tanzania is about as diverse and beautiful as you can get. Jet off on this wild getaway and discover the best of bush and beach on an escape that encompasses the adrenaline-inducing search for wildlife on thrilling games rides, with the quiet calm of lying on a beach taking in the sound of lapping waves.

You'll start your sojourn with two nights in Zanzibar, where topaz seas, blue skies with cotton wool clouds and long stretches of powder-soft sands welcome you as warmly as the gentle rays from the sun. Discover nearby villages and wildlife reserves at a gentle pace, before flying to the heart of the Tanzanian wilderness for an action-packed stay at a traditional safari camp. All manner of animals lie in wait, from prowling leopards and majestic elephants to grazing giraffes and mischievous monkeys; spot them on full-day game drives, as well as cruising down the river on a boat safari and joining a close-to-nature bush walk.

After all this excitement, you'll be overdue for some serious down-time; so you'll return to your beachfront resort in Zanzibar for all the rest and relaxation you could wish for. It's a picture-perfect paradise, only made more perfect by stunning sands and mouthwatering Zanzibari fare. Plus, with the option to upgrade your stay to all-inclusive, dreams of (almost endless) cocktails by the pool just got a little closer.
