Safari tours often highlight Africa’s iconic wildlife, including the famed Big Five: lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard, and rhinoceros. One of the most thrilling experiences is spotting a lion in its natural habitat, as shown above. Top reserves host these species: Tanzania’s vast Serengeti boasts the annual Great Wildebeest Migration; Kenya’s Masai Mara (adjacent to the Serengeti) is legendary for big cat sightings during the migration; and South Africa’s Kruger National Park reliably delivers all Big Five encounters. Other premier destinations include Botswana’s Okavango Delta (a unique water-based safari paradise) and Zambia’s South Luangwa (famous for walking safaris). In short, Africa’s protected parks are teeming with wildlife, and some tours even extend into Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park and Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable National Park to trek the endangered mountain gorillas, adding a rainforest highlight beyond the Big Five.
Africa Safari and Beach Holiday – Two Holidays in One
Many travelers find that combining a safari and a beach holiday delivers “the best of both worlds”. In other words, it’s like getting two vacations in one. You begin with exhilarating game drives or gorilla treks. It’s even said, “being on a safari in Africa is one of the best experiences you can ask for,” then unwind on a pristine Indian Ocean beach. For example, an itinerary might include a Big Five safari in South Africa’s Sabi Sabi reserve followed by white-sand relaxation in the Seychelles. This blend appeals to all kinds of travelers, families appreciate the variety, and couples often choose it for honeymoons
At Mtembezi African Safaris & Vacations, we know there’s nothing better than swapping early‑morning game drives for afternoons spent sprawled on powder‑soft sands. After tracking lions and elephants, we’ll whisk you off to secluded shores where the Indian Ocean laps warm, golden beaches. Our signature safari–beach combinations pair the best of East Africa and its islands. Imagine mornings in the Masai Mara or Serengeti, followed by sunsets on Diani Beach or the spice‑scented shores of Zanzibar. In Southern Africa, we blend Kruger’s Big Five thrills with blissful villa stays on Mauritius or Mozambique’s coastline.
With Mtembezi, you don’t just get one holiday, you get two the Africa Safari & beach holiday tours: wild, awe‑inspiring safari days and pure, restorative beach escapes, all woven into a single, seamless journey.
Kenya and Tanzania: Safari & Sea
Kenya and Tanzania form East Africa’s safari heartland, and each can be combined with a tropical beach extension. In Kenya, one can spend days in the Maasai Mara or Amboseli viewing elephants, lions, and leopards, then head to the Indian Ocean coast. For example, many packages offer 4 nights at a Mara camp followed by 4 nights at the Pinewood Beach Resort in Mombasa, or a classic road safari (Nairobi to Mara to Tsavo) ending on Diani’s famous white sand. Neighbor Tanzania has similar appeal: a safari in the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, or Tarangire can be paired with a beach stay on Zanzibar Island, whose turquoise seas and spice-market culture complement the wilderness trek. Many travelers even do both, for instance, a 10-day East African itinerary might begin in Kenya’s Amboseli and Mara parks, then cross into Tanzania to visit the Serengeti and Ngorongoro. (Masai Mara and Serengeti essentially share wildlife on both sides of the Kenya–Tanzania border
Southern Africa Safaris and Coastline Escapes
Southern Africa offers its safari-and-beach combinations. A common pattern is Kruger-area game reserves (Big Five country), followed by a stay in the Indian Ocean islands or Mozambique. For example, an itinerary may feature days of lion and rhino spotting in the Sabi Sands or Timbavati concessions, then a flight to Mauritius or the Seychelles for palm-fringed beaches. One travel tip advertises a “two-centre” plan: Kruger drives followed by Seychelles sunbathing. Alternatively, you might visit Zimbabwe’s Hwange Park or Zambia’s South Luangwa for more safari, and then cross the border to unwind on Mozambique’s coast. In all cases, the pattern is similar: savanna mornings, ocean afternoons.
Planning Your Africa Safari & Beach Holiday
To make it work, most tours are tailor-made and often all-inclusive. With our planning team at Mtembezi African Safaris & Vacations, we build custom itineraries with input from local guides. These packages typically cover lodging, meals, game drives, and park fees in one price, letting you focus on fun, not logistics. For adventurers, self-drive safaris are also an option: We can rent you a 4×4 with GPS so you can explore at your own pace(a budget-friendly choice for families or independent travelers). Many tours offer special options – family-friendly camps and activities for kids, or romantic lodges and beach resorts for honeymooners. As a rough guide, a 12–14-night combined safari-and-beach trip often costs on the order of £5,000–£10,000 per person (all-inclusive), though prices vary with accommodation level and season.
Whether you want a Big Five adventure, a gorilla trek, a romantic escape, or a family vacation, Mtembezi African Safaris & Vacations can craft the right combination. Our local experts (many raised in Africa) tailor every safari, beach holiday tour to your interests. In short, teaming up thrilling wildlife encounters with paradise beaches is the ultimate way to experience Africa’s diversity, and Mtembezi is ready to make that dream vacation happen.
