It was an absolutely amazing trip. We saw the Big 5 plus their babies. We also saw the Ugly 5. Plus thousands of zebras and wildebeests and hundreds of different gazelles.

Zanzibar Trips
To think of Zanzibar is to think of exotic spices, palm-fringed beaches and the narrow streets of Arabic bazaars. The island has a fascinating history, due in part to its location 22mi (35km) from mainland Africa. Arab traders arrived during the eighth century, married with the existing population, and Islam was well established as the predominant culture by the 11th century. In the 16th century, Portuguese explorers arrived, followed by Omanis – it was governed by a sultan until 1964 – and, later still, the British.
Now, Stone Town, a must-visit on Zanzibar holidays, has atmospheric mosques, alleys filled with colourful shops and a lively waterfront with a fantastic fish market. Cloves and many other spices are grown in the lush interior of the island, while coral reefs, simple fishing villages and beautiful beaches are found along much of the coastline.
Zanzibar Adventure Holidays
Peggy Rybachuk Kenya & Tanzania Adventure
Andrew Griffin Kenya & Tanzania AdventureThe 14 day experience was truly amazing for me and my son. The whole experience including the organisation, camping and hotels was outstanding. The trip involved some long days, long drives and early morning but you soon forgot about this as you were rewarded with amazing sunrises, stunning wildlife in at least five different national parks or wildlife area and beautiful scenery. Our local guides and Exodus team were extremely friendly, professional and knowledgeable.
The final few days in Zanzibar allowed us to chill out on a beautiful white beach and enjoy the Indian Ocean. The optional trips including the Serengeti Balloon Experience, the snorkelling in Zanzibar and the Maasia people tour were brilliant.
Bridget Bennett Kenya & Tanzania AdventureThis trip exceeded all expectations in terms of the iconic wildlife we saw and the spectacular scenery, with a wonderful guide and crew. Also we had a good group of only 7, and being outside peak season camp sites were quiet, and there was less competition between safari vehicles for prime viewing spots.
