TANZANIA LUXURY HONEYMOON - 11 DAYS / 10 NIGHTS
EXQUISITE WILDERNESS • REMOTE SAFARI • LUXURY TENTED CAMPS • INDIAN OCEAN ESCAPE
Experience the ultimate luxury honeymoon in Tanzania's Southern Circuit - far fewer vehicles, remote wilderness, exclusive experiences, and luxurious accommodations.
OVERVIEW
Tanzania Luxury Honeymoon takes you to the exquisite wilderness regions of Southern Tanzania. The benefit of a Tanzania Southern Circuit Safari is first and foremost is you get to see far fewer vehicles while on safari during game drives, second the region is far more remote so you get to enjoy lots of secluded time and experience and third you can get out of the vehicle for foot safaris!
By this we mean that you can choose your safari activities to include boat trips and walking safaris in addition to the traditional game drives. The Accommodation is in luxury tented camps.
