Join our Zanzibar to Gorillas tour for a perfect mix of beach relaxation and wild adventure.

Begin on Zanzibar Island, filled with the smell of exotic spices. Explore lively markets, walk through the historic alleys of Stone Town, and unwind on beaches by the Indian Ocean.

From Zanzibar, we take a ferry to mainland Tanzania, heading to Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti National Park. These famous spots are full of African wildlife, like lions, wildebeests, and elephants. Enjoy game drives in open-top 4x4s with our expert guides.

Next, we head into Kenya to visit the Masai Mara National Reserve. Experience the Great Migration (seasonal), drive through the Great Rift Valley, and spot wildlife in Lake Nakuru National Park.

Journey to Uganda’s Bwindi National Park, home to the endangered mountain gorillas. Seeing these gentle giants up close is a life-changing experience.

From sunny beaches to wild landscapes and ancient forests, this journey offers a true taste of Africa’s beauty and diversity.

Accommodation

Sleep under the stars on this overland camping tour.

You will be provided with a 2-person dome canvas tent (2.5 m x 2.5 m) as well as a 5 cm-thick mattress. Note that you will need to bring your own sleeping bag, pillow and towel.

The tents come with self-supporting poles, built-in mosquito nets, and a rainproof flysheet. Your guide will give you a quick demo on setting up and taking down your tent on the first day of the tour. It’s super easy!

The tents are twin share so if you are a solo traveler you will share a tent with another guest of the same gender. You do have the option to book a single tent at an additional cost.

The campsites have well-maintained ablutions with decent toilet and shower facilities. Hot water may be a luxury in some locations especially in East Africa. Keep in mind that in some cases we go off the beaten track and stay at bush camps, where facilities are limited or non-existent.

The group will occasionally stay in twin accommodations when the tour reaches major cities, allowing you to enjoy the comfort of a bed for the evening.

You will also have the chance to upgrade from camping to accommodation while you are on the tour. This is subject to availability and can be booked directly with the accommodation establishment on arrival. 

This tour offers both accommodation and camping options. If you prefer to sleep in a bed for the entire trip, we recommend choosing the accommodated option.
