Itinerary

Day 1: Arrival and Island Indulgence

Upon arrival at Zanzibar Airport, you'll be warmly welcomed by your guide who will escort you on a scenic transfer to &Beyond Mnemba Island Lodge.

As you arrive at the lodge, indulge in a refreshing welcome drink that sets the tone for your luxurious island retreat. Check into your private Banda, a tranquil beachfront sanctuary where you'll spend the next three nights. Take a moment to settle in and absorb the serene surroundings, immersing yourself in the natural beauty of the Indian Ocean. Later in the afternoon, unwind with a peaceful yoga session overlooking the turquoise waters.

As evening falls, delight your palate with a sumptuous dinner showcasing local flavors and fresh seafood at the lodge's inviting restaurant. Relax and recharge during your overnight stay, surrounded by the sounds of the ocean and the gentle sea breeze.

Day 2: &Beyond Island Adventures

Begin your day with a hearty breakfast served against the backdrop of breathtaking ocean views. Following breakfast, embark on a morning snorkeling expedition to discover the vibrant coral reefs and diverse marine life of Mnemba Atoll. After your underwater adventure, return to the lodge for a leisurely lunch, where you can relax and recount your morning's discoveries.

In the afternoon, embark on a memorable dhow cruise, sailing into the sunset while enjoying refreshing sundowners. As night falls, you have the option to indulge in a romantic dinner under the stars or unwind with a drink at the lodge bar, savoring the tranquility of the island's ambiance. 

Retire for the night, anticipating another day of luxury and exploration in this tropical paradise.

Day 3: Dive The Underwater Wonders

Following breakfast, prepare for a day of adventure and relaxation amidst the island's pristine waters. Start with a guided kayaking or stand-up paddle boarding excursion, gliding along the crystal-clear waters that surround the lodge.

Take a refreshing mid-morning break with tea or coffee served on the tranquil beach, soaking in the serene atmosphere. In the afternoon, immerse yourself in the underwater wonders of Mnemba Atoll with two guided dives, where you can explore diverse marine ecosystems (PADI certification required).

After your dives, return to the lodge for a well-deserved relaxation period or indulge in an optional spa treatment to rejuvenate your body and mind. Later in the afternoon, join a guided yoga session, designed to enhance your relaxation and restore your energy. 

Delight in a dinner featuring a variety of delectable dishes served at the lodge's inviting dining area, before retiring for the night.

Trip to Kruger at Mdluli Safari Lodge
I loved working with Anja from safari.com. She put together my itinerary within my price range and was very professional, thorough and empathetic. She followed up with me many times to see if I needed anything throughout my trip and even filled out some forms for me when I was having difficulty. When the lodge I stayed at was not being accommodating in the slightest, she quickly contacted the manager and got them to rearrange their services to meet my needs. I would most certainly use safari.com again due to my wonderful experience working with Anja.

This Travel Firm is Ready for You!
We have completed the preliminary reservations with this amazing travel firm. Thank God they exist! We would never have been able to figure out how to put the pieces of our trip to AFRICA together without them. They are patient, caring, detailed, and responsive to communications…something you expect, but do not always receive when service is involved. Connect with them via email if you are even thinking about going to Africa. Cheers!

First time to Cape Town
We are a group of ten friends traveling together to Cape Town for the first time. Safari.com was our top choice for travel agents. Leché and Tracy were incredibly helpful and prompt with our questions and bookings. The trip to Sanbona Wildlife Reserve was fantastic, and everything went off without a hitch. We highly recommend Safari.com for your safari plans!
