The best of both worlds: Five beach and safari escapes

Tranquil stays on the world’s finest beaches make for the perfect end to time spent in the African bush.

Knysna, South Africa

Whether you fancy a sunset stroll in the African bush or a busy day spotting one of the famed ‘Big Five’ on a game drive, you can enjoy an otherworldly experience on safari before combining your holiday with some relaxation time by the sea.

Here are four incredible destinations to put on your wish-list that allow you to benefit from the best of both.

Maasai Mara and Mombasa

Pairing a quintessential African safari experience with idyllic beachfront areas, Kenya is one of the most popular choices for beach safaris every year. Take to the renowned Maasai Mara game reserve for a fascinating week tracking the ‘Big Five’ before retreating to vibrant Mombasa. With colourful urban areas interspersed with picturesque coastal stretches, this city offers an ideal space to recharge after a captivating week in the bush.

Mossel Bay and the Garden Route Game Lodge

For a slower-paced safari escape, South Africa’s verdant Garden Route promises the balance between leisurely nature cruises and animal experiences. Additional days at leisure in easy-going Mossel Bay and coastal Knysna also offer some welcome downtime to recharge in between game drives. What’s more, as you traverse the country’s south coast, you’ll be just as likely to spot spellbinding sea life as well as the fabled ‘Big Five’.

Discover

and safari tours

The Serengeti and sun-kissed Zanzibar

Few sights are more impressive than the legendary Serengeti with natural wonders and thriving ecosystems at every turn. After the excitement of the Serengeti’s grand safaris, you can embrace a few days to relax on Zanzibar’s tranquil white beaches. You’ll be hard-pressed to find a better island getaway than this coastal gem on the azure Indian Ocean.

Luxurious safari stays in South Africa and Mauritius

Set in the heart of the prized Mabula Game Reserve, an escape to the Safari Plains tented camp ensures a truly unique wildlife-spotting experience where comfort and luxury are front of mind. Combine this with a five-star resort stay on Mauritius’ white-sand beaches, where you’ll be free to do as little or as much as you’d like to round your trip out in style.

Tiger-spotting and a Goan beach journey

For a culture-focused safari experience, look no further than glorious Rajasthan. From Delhi’s world-famous landmarks to the royal Bengal tigers of Ranthambore National Park, India’s majestic central region promises memorable sights abound. After a week in India’s lively urban centres, take a few days away from the bustle of city life with a trip south to Goa’s palm-studded coast for a seafront getaway.
