Important Information for Your 2-Day Tanzania Safari from Zanzibar

​Seamless Travel from Zanzibar:

Your adventure begins and ends with ultimate convenience. Our 2-day safari from Zanzibar is specifically designed for quick, efficient access to Tanzania's mainland parks.

  • Included Flights: Your package includes return flights from Zanzibar International Airport (ZNZ) to Arusha Airport (ARK) or a nearby safari airstrip (e.g., Manyara Airstrip). These flights are carefully timed to maximise your game viewing opportunities.

  • Airport Transfers: Upon arrival at the mainland airstrip, you'll be met by your professional Watermark Safari guide and transferred directly to your safari vehicle to begin your game drive, or to your overnight accommodation. All transfers back to the airstrip for your return flight to Zanzibar are also included.

  • Luggage Restrictions: Please note that light aircraft flights typically have strict luggage limits, usually 15-20 kg (33-44 lbs) per person in soft-sided bags or duffels. This is crucial for ensuring safety and maintaining proper weight distribution on small planes. We'll provide exact limits with your booking confirmation.

Accommodation & Safari Style

For your 2-day safari, we prioritize comfortable and strategically located accommodation to enhance your brief but impactful wilderness experience.

  • Lodge/Tented Camp Stays: You'll spend one night in a carefully selected mid-range to luxury lodge or permanent tented camp. These accommodations offer private rooms/tents, comfortable beds, en-suite bathrooms, and often beautiful views of the surrounding wilderness.

  • Meals: All meals during your safari are included (lunch and dinner on Day 1, and breakfast and lunch on Day 2). You'll enjoy delicious fresh cuisine, often featuring a mix of international and local dishes. Packed lunches are provided for full-day game drives.

  • Dietary Needs: Please inform us of any dietary restrictions or allergies at the time of booking, and we will ensure these are catered for.

Safari Vehicles & Guiding

Your comfort, safety, and wildlife viewing success are our top priorities.

  • Custom 4x4 Safari Vehicles: We utilise specially adapted 4x4 safari vehicles (typically Toyota Land Cruisers) with pop-up roofs, ensuring excellent visibility for game viewing and photography.

  • Experienced Safari Guides: Your private, professional English-speaking safari guide is not just a driver; they are highly knowledgeable about the local wildlife, ecosystems, and culture. They are experts at spotting animals and will enrich your experience with fascinating insights.

  • Private Safari: For a truly intimate experience, our 2-day safaris are often private, ensuring dedicated attention from your guide.

Why choose a 2 Day Tanzania Safari from Zanzibar Package With Us?

1. High-Impact Itinerary

 

A common 2-day safari itinerary focuses on two of Tanzania's most famous and animal-rich destinations:

  • Tarangire National Park: On the first day, you'll likely explore Tarangire, famous for its massive elephant herds and the iconic baobab trees that dot the landscape. The Tarangire River serves as a magnet for wildlife, making it an excellent destination to observe a diverse array of animals, including lions, giraffes, zebras, and a wide range of birds.

  • Ngorongoro Crater: The second day is dedicated to the Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and often called the "Garden of Eden." The crater floor is a self-contained ecosystem with an incredibly high density of wildlife. It's one of the best places in Africa to see the "Big Five" (lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino) in a single day.

​Tailored and Private Experience

Water Mark Safari, like many other reputable local operators, emphasises a private and customised safari experience. This means:

  • Dedicated Vehicle: You'll have a private 4x4 Land Cruiser with a pop-up roof, allowing for excellent game viewing and photography without being on a schedule dictated by a large group.

  • Expert Guide: You will be accompanied by a professional, English-speaking safari guide who has in-depth knowledge of the parks, animal behaviour, and local culture. This personalised guidance can significantly enhance your experience.

  • Flexibility: Although there's a set itinerary, a private tour offers more flexibility to spend extra time at a wildlife sighting you're particularly interested in or to adjust the schedule to suit your preferences.
