• Day 1, Dar Es Salaam

  On arrival at Dar es Salaam International Airport you will be warmly welcomed by a member of the Our team, who will transfer you to your hotel. Despite its name, which means "abode of peace" in Arabic, Dar es Salaam is Tanzania's largest and busiest city. Situated right on the Indian Ocean, it is the ideal place from which to access both the wilderness areas and the beaches of Tanzania and Zanzibar. Most visitors en route to the better-known Tanzanian attractions are surprised by the charm of this unassuming city. Attractions include the beautiful beaches of Kunduchi, Mjimwena and Mbwa Maji, Dar es Salaam's spectacular harbour and the local markets. Spend the night in a luxury suite at Oyster Bay. Your stay is on a fully inclusive basis.

• Day 2 to 4, Selous Game Reserve

  You will be driven back to Dar es Salaam International Airport, where you will board a flight to the Selous Game Reserve. On arrival, a vehicle will be waiting to drive you to Beho Beho Safari Camp. Secluded and off the beaten track, the Selous Game Reserve is a slice of untamed wilderness, teeming with a spectacular array of fauna and flora. Its dramatic landscapes and great diversity of wildlife earned it its World Heritage Site status. The Selous is one of the few big game reserves to allow hiking, offering the chance to explore its pristine landscapes on foot. Relax for three nights in the intimate safari retreat of Beho Beho Safari Camp. Your stay includes three meals daily, soft drinks, house wines, local brand spirits and beers, teas and coffees, scheduled safari activities and laundry.

The pristine white beaches of Mnemba Island combine with the deep blue ocean to make this intimate island a private tropical paradise. Magnificent coral reefs create an underwater wonderland that lures guests to explore the crystal clear waters of the Indian Ocean. Scores of snorkelling and diving sites form a gateway to the staggering diversity of marine life that inhabits the surrounding coral atoll. Indulge in four nights in an ensuite banda at Mnemba Island Lodge. Your stay includes three meals daily, soft drinks, house wines, local brand spirits and beers, tea and coffee, emergency medical evacuation insurance, laundry and a selection of daily adventures.
