After several days on safari, Zanzibar offers a different pace: beach, rest and time for yourselves.
It can be combined with any of our safaris.
Plan your tripA safari is intense: early starts, full days in the 4x4, big emotions. Zanzibar is the exact opposite — white sand, turquoise water, and nothing you have to do. Pairing the two isn’t a nice-to-have: it’s the structure that actually works best for recovering properly after the most demanding part of the trip. That’s why safari + Zanzibar is one of the most requested combinations in Tanzania, for honeymooning couples and families alike.
A single internal flight of just over an hour connects northern Tanzania to Zanzibar — no long transfers, no changing countries. At Destiny Winners we coordinate the safari and the beach stay as one itinerary, with a single point of contact from start to finish. Most travellers close out any of our safari routes with 3 to 6 nights in Zanzibar, depending on the time they have.
