Plan your safari

LUXURY INDIAN OCEAN ISLANDS HOLIDAYS

There’s no better way to end an action-packed Kenya or Tanzania safari than with a few days blissing out on the beaches and islands of the Indian Ocean. Boasting pristine white sands, swaying palm trees and turquoise waters, they offer a quintessential paradise where you can relax and rejuvenate before heading back to your day-to-day life.

From the vibrant beach resorts around Mombasa to the Swahili-cultured streets of Lamu, Kenya’s Indian Ocean coastline offers something for everyone. Off the coast of Tanzania lies one of the continent’s most exotic island destinations - Zanzibar - and its no less beguiling little sister - Pemba. Slightly further afield is the stunning archipelago of Seychelles whose granite boulders perch above the Indian Ocean to create a scene that has to be seen to be believed.

To inspire your own beach and bush safari, here are a few of the Indian Ocean destinations that our tour packages visit.
