Tanzania honeymoon - An 11-day safari and beach honeymoon, staying in Tanzania’s most glorious places. This most Indulgent Honeymoon in Tanzania includes Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro and Serengeti and Zanzibar.
Indulge in the drama of East Africa’s most beautiful landscapes, from the romance of classical safari to the wonder of breath-taking landscapes and the barefoot luxury of a private island. At Lake Manyara you will share a cozy tree house in the heart of a scenic landscape, where lions lounge in the forks of trees and pink flamingo wade near the lakeshore. Enjoy a taste of adventure combined with the ultimate luxury on the open plains of the Serengeti, where Persian carpets and fully sized beds are separated from the African night by only a thin sheet of canvas and the light of lanterns sparkles on silver and crystal as your private feast is served in the open air. Wrap yourself in the glamour and decadence of another era as you gaze out at endless misty views of the Ngorongoro Crater from beside a blazing fireplace. End your adventure with a moonlight walk on the white beaches of andBeyond Mnemba Island, serenaded by the whisper of the waves.

andBeyond Mnemba Island offers a sheer unpretentious paradise – just ten rustic palm-frond bandas sit nestled in a tropical casuarina pine forest fringed by a white coral sand beach. Cooling ocean breezes waft in through glass-free windows that are open to the elements. A covered walkway leads to a shuttered ensuite bathroom with huge glass beaded shower. Built-in barazas on the veranda are perfect for afternoon siestas and private beach salas feature traditional Zanzibari loungers for languid hours on the beachfront.
Thatched dining and sitting / bar areas have beautiful open views of the beach. Baskets of fresh fruit, fish, lobsters, crabs and prawns are sailed into Mnemba daily on traditional ngalawa outriggers. Romantic candlelit dinners are served on the beach with the waves gently lapping at one’s feet. Private beach dinners delight newlyweds and not-so newlyweds alike.
WHAT WE LOVE ABOUT ANDBEYOND MNEMBA ISLAND
One lazy afternoon, ask one of the staff members to teach you how to play Mbao – a traditional wooden board game.
During a full or new moon, be sure to take a walk along the beach at low tide, when the whole atoll is exposed.
Watch turtles lay their eggs on Mnemba’s sandy shores. This happens year round, however, the laying season peaks between January and August and hatchings take place approximately two months later. This is a definite must-see!
