Day Safari to Saadani National Park

Day Safari to Saadani National Park

Where the bush meets the beach

We’re thrilled to introduce an exciting new adventure that blends the magic of wildlife with the beauty of the Indian Ocean: a full-day safari to Saadani National Park, now departing daily from Zanzibar!

Why Choose Saadani?

Saadani is unique—it’s the only national park in East Africa where the wilderness meets the sea. Imagine elephants and lions just steps away from sandy shores, hippos basking in the Wami River, and giraffes silhouetted against the ocean breeze. It’s a safari experience unlike any other.
