All-inclusive African Safari & Culinary August 8 – August 16, 2022

ByUrvashi

Join us for an 8-night /9-day trip for an amazing culinary safari with Snorkeling

African Safari & Culinary Trip Overview

On each food-focused trip, a small group of us will head on an 8-night, 9-day to Moshi Town, Arusha, the Serengeti, and Zanzibar, as well as a few local stops along the way.

The week will be a mix of major sites in big cities, smaller villages, and local shops. Each itinerary includes expert-led tours, cooking classes, market visits, boutique accommodations, and a great group of fellow travelers.

And unlike other safaris that charge $10,000 per person with very few meals included, our low-priced African Safari takes care of you all the way, and in great style.

  • Duration: 08 nights / 09 Days
  • Location: (Tanzania) Moshi Town, Arusha, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Zanzibar
  • Product code: EAST_AFRICA

  • Once we have 7 people wait-listed, those bookings will be accepted.

Our Culinary Tours Travel Philosophy

We choose places where the US dollar is strong, where the food culture rocks, and the locals really benefit from our visits. The tours are food and learning-focused. We combine a few tourist activities with activities and places that regular tourists rarely see.

We want you to experience the country as the locals do, while not skipping major sites. These are first-class trips, and we make them as all-inclusive as possible. From the time you arrive until you leave, you will only need your wallet to shop or order alcohol and other incidentals. Food, drink, transport, and ALL TIPS are included in your very low price!
