Why travel with Beach Safari?

We are proud to be a trusted name in African tourism. Our accolades reflect our commitment to delivering the best in adventure and hospitality. 

Beach Safari made our dream trip to Africa a reality! The website was so easy to use, and the detailed descriptions of each package helped us choose the perfect honeymoon getaway. From the moment we booked, everything was seamless—from the romantic beachfront villa in Zanzibar to the thrilling safari in Tanzania. It was truly the adventure of a lifetime, and we can’t wait to book our next trip!

Our stay here was truly magical. The staff are so warm and friendly. Any requests we had, they were more than happy to cater for our needs. The chef is extremely talented and makes delicious meals every evening, and we also had some requests to try some more Localised cuisines, which he was more than happy to make especially for us. The rims were in a beautiful setting in the middle of the Savannah. The rooms were clean and had plenty of amenities. We would definitely return. Thank you to all of the Serengeti Ikoma family for your hospitality.

We absolutely love this place!! All new!! The resort is beautiful! The food is great! Service is perfect! We can't recommend this place enough! It far exceeded our expectations!!
