Day 1 – 8
From Livingstone we continue north, pausing at Lusaka and Chipata before arriving at South Luangwa NP for 2 nights. Continuing through Zambia we reach Malawi, the ‘warm heart’ of Africa. Passing through Lilongwe we reach the enormous Lake Malawi, Africa’s third largest lake, where we camp on sandy beaches, enjoy the swimming and meet the famously friendly locals.
Day 9 – 14
We continue north into Tanzania. Travelling through some remote areas, we pass by Mikumi National Park before reaching the Indian Ocean coast and port city, Dar es Salaam. ‘Dar’ is Tanzania’s main commercial centre and the jumping-off point for Zanzibar - the ‘Spice Island’! Time here is at your leisure. Rich in history, Zanzibar offers a blissful mix of exotic spice markets, winding alleyways and old palaces as well as sparkling warm water ocean and stretches of palm-fringed sands.
NB As we leave the truck on the mainland, basic tourist class accommodation on Zanzibar is included in the Local Payment but for the sake of flexibility meals are left for your own account. Typically we spend one night in Stone Town and the next two nights in the north of the island at one of the beaches. Your tour leader will be available to assist if you experience any problems but there are no set activities - the time is entirely at leisure.
Day 15 – 21
Back on the African mainland we travel back inland where, if the weather is in clear we see the enormous snow-capped Mt. Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest peak (5895m), as we make our way to Tanzania’s safari capital, Arusha. Visit the snake enclosure at the Meserani Snake Park and make friends on a guided walk to the local Maasai village to learn something of their traditional culture. In Arusha we transfer to 4x4 vehicles for a 2 night/3-day safari to Tanzania’s premier parks, the Serengeti National Park and Ngoronogoro Crater. The scenery in this area is staggering as we cross the Rift Valley and drive around the Ngorongoro Crater rim to the Serengeti plains beyond. Game viewing can be spectacular here and camping out on the plains a memorable experience. We return to Arusha before our final drive north across the border into Kenya Nairobi where our tour ends.
