Why you should go: Zebras rushing across the savannah. Elephants stamping their way to watering holes. Giraffes browsing the umbrella-shaped canopy of acacia trees. Tanzania is where you go for a safari experience like no other destination can deliver. 

On this weeklong adventure in Big Five country, you’ll explore legendary landscapes — the UNESCO-listed Ngorongoro Crater and the mighty Serengeti — and in between game drives, relax in a luxe tent with a verandah that gives you a front-row seat to the natural wonders of East Africa.

What’s the big deal? This trip normally costs over $18,000, but Travelzoo members can book it for just $8999 for two. That price covers your stays at private safari camps, all meals and drinks (excl. travel days), game drives and nature walks, plus all transportation upon arrival in Tanzania.

Travelzoo tip: The seasonal migration of two million wildebeest, zebras and gazelle (May-July) is one of the greatest spectacles on the planet, but the Serengeti's wealth of wildlife makes it one of the world's best safari destinations year-round.
