Customer reviews —
Are you ready to be amazed? This trip combines wildlife and a heavenly beach. Ngorongoro Park is unreal because it makes you feel like you're in a different world! The Serengeti park is also unique with its endless plains and animals crossing in front of you. You'll then end up at a hotel in Zanzibar that has everything you need to relax! Its view of the sunset on the jetty is my favorite.

Sea Cliff Resort & Spa 5* —
Welcome to Sea Cliff Resort & Spa 5*, your sanctuary on the peaceful north-western shores of Zanzibar. From the moment you arrive, the island’s warm breeze, swaying palms and endless Indian Ocean views invite you to slow down and settle into a gentler rhythm. Here, days unfold between fragrant tropical gardens, infinity pools that seem to blend into the horizon, and architecture inspired by the island’s Swahili and Arabic heritage.
Just a short drive from the winding streets of Stone Town, this is the perfect place to experience the magic of Zanzibar: the colours, the culture, and the unhurried way of life. Whether you’re dreaming of quiet moments by the water, slow mornings on your balcony or sunsets that light up the ocean, Sea Cliff offers the kind of escape you’ll want to return to again and again.
Your dining choices
Start your mornings with the scent of tropical fruit and freshly baked pastries at Mangapwani Restaurant, where dishes are inspired by both local Zanzibari flavours and international favourites. As the day unfolds, you’re invited to wander between bars and terraces, each offering its own view of the shimmering Indian Ocean.
Your time
Drift between the infinity pools and the warm ocean, or let the island’s tranquillity wash over you during a tailored treatment at Zuri Rituals Spa, complete with a sauna, steam room and serene couple’s suite.
For a touch of adventure, follow the coastline on horseback with a guided ride from the resort’s stables, or challenge yourself at the Sea Cliff Golf Course, the only course in Zanzibar, offering spectacular sea views from every hole.

Your destination —
Tanzania
Tanzania offers a wealth of natural beauty and captivating wildlife, providing a remarkable backdrop for those seeking the ultimate safari experience. From the soaring peaks of Mount Kilimanjaro to the pristine beaches of Zanzibar, this East African gem showcases diverse landscapes and abundant wildlife, making it a must-visit for any adventurous traveller.
Must-sees:
- Serengeti National Park: Famous for the Great Migration, this park provides one of the most iconic wildlife experiences.
- Ngorongoro Crater: A UNESCO World Heritage site, it is a natural wonder, home to a rich ecosystem and diverse species.
- Tarangire National Park: Known for its stunning baobab trees and elephant herds, this lesser-known gem is a peaceful retreat from the more crowded parks.
Culinary culture:
Tanzanian cuisine reflects the country’s diverse heritage, blending African, Indian, and Arab influences. Ugali, a staple made from maize, is often served with rich stews or grilled fish from the Indian Ocean. Street food such as samosas and mandazi (sweet fried dough) offer delightful local snacks. The coastal areas offer fresh seafood, with spicy coconut dishes adding an exotic twist to the flavours.
Dive deeper:
Beyond the safari, immerse yourself in Tanzanian culture. The Zanzibar Archipelago is renowned for its history, where influences from Arab, Indian, and Portuguese settlers can be explored in the narrow streets of Stone Town. The island is also famed for its spice plantations, which offer guided tours where you can learn about the island’s aromatic produce. The Maasai people, one of Tanzania’s indigenous tribes, offer an authentic cultural experience, with their traditional dances, crafts, and vibrant attire.
Good to know:
The Tanzanian Shilling (TZS) is the local currency, though US dollars are widely accepted. The best time to visit is during the dry season, from June to October, when wildlife sightings are at their peak. Zanzibar is a year-round destination, but the coastal areas may see more rain during the long rains (March to May). Flights to Tanzania typically land at Dar es Salaam or Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO).
