The ultimate Tanzanian honeymoon itinerary — the raw adrenaline of Serengeti big-cat game drives paired with the barefoot luxury of Zanzibar's palm-fringed beaches, for couples who want both wilderness adventure and real beach relaxation. After five days of game drives in a private 4x4, you fly directly from the Serengeti savannah to Zanzibar Island and into a beach resort with private plunge pools, ocean views and overwater dining. Every detail is curated for romance — private sunset dhow cruises, a couples' spa treatment, and an intimate seafood dinner on the sand.
