What is a Tanzania honeymoon safari?
A Tanzania honeymoon safari is a private trip for two that combines game drives anywhere in the country, from the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater in the north to Nyerere and Ruaha in the south and Mahale on Lake Tanganyika in the west, with romantic moments such as sundowners, bush dinners and a balloon flight, often ending on the beaches of Zanzibar, Mafia Island or Pangani. With Yera Journeys it is private from start to finish, available in Classic, Signature and Bespoke styles, from $770 per person.
Why Tanzania
A Honeymoon Safari in Tanzania, From the Parks to the Indian Ocean
Few countries give you this much in one trip. Lions in the Serengeti, boat safaris in Nyerere, chimpanzees on the shores of Lake Tanganyika, evenings by the fire under the stars, then slow days on the white sand of Zanzibar or Mafia Island.
Your safari is private, so every game drive, every meal and every sunset is just the two of you. We plan the pace around rest as much as adventure, so you come home closer and not tired.
The honeymoon difference
Wild mornings. Slow evenings. Just the two of you.

A table under the stars, lit by lanterns and a campfire, arranged at camps that offer it.

Float over the plains at sunrise, then land to a bush breakfast. From USD 550 to 600 per person.
Safari
Private Game Drives
Your own vehicle and guide, in English, French, Spanish, Italian, German, Chinese or Russian. Stop as long as you like at every sighting.
Beach
