Island & Bush Adventure

Your Adventure Begins

Upon landing at Zanzibar Airport, our friendly driver will greet you with a sign and cold towel. A short transfer brings you to Villa Kiva Hotel, your beachfront retreat for the next three days.

 

What You’ll Do

• Day 1: Unwind after your journey. Dip your toes in the Indian Ocean, sip a coconut under palm trees, or explore the nearby village.
• Day 2: Choose between a spice tour (smell vanilla, clove, and cinnamon straight from the farm) or a snorkeling trip to Mnemba Atoll (turtles, rays, and coral gardens).
• Day 3: Relax at your own pace maybe a beach massage, or a stroll through Stone Town’s alleys to see the Old Fort and Freddie Mercury’s house.

Into the Wild

After breakfast, fly to the mainland and meet your safari guide. Drive straight into Tarangire National Park, where baobab trees tower over elephant herds.

Today’s Highlights

• • Morning Game Drive: Spot lions lazing on granite kopjes and giraffes nibbling acacia leaves.
  • Picnic Lunch: Enjoy a meal under a baobab while watching vervet monkeys play.
  • Afternoon Safari: Search for rare kudus and leopards as the sun sets golden over the savanna.

A Day of Contrasts

Wake early for a game drive in Lake Manyara, a park where the jungle meets the lake. After lunch, fly back to Zanzibar.

 

What Makes Manyara Special

• Tree-Climbing Lions: Spot these rare lions lounging in acacia branches.
• Flamingo Spectacle: Thousands of pink flamingos wade in the soda lake.
• Hidden Waterfalls: Walk through a forest glade to a cascading waterfall (optional).

 

Evening

Back in Zanzibar, savor a seafood dinner at your hotel with the sound of waves in the background.
