This is a great experience of East Africa - rhino sanctuaries, river crossings and Swahili culture. This offers the same type of trip as our other high season highlight trips, but stripped down to really solid little properties who are less fussed about luxury, swimming pools and bath tubs. The wildlife is still awesome, the food is delicious, the rooms are clean and comfortable, and the guiding is still top notch. Finish it off at one of our go-to beach hideaways on Zanzibar.
