TANZANIA & ZANZIBAR
GROUP 1: July 28 – August 7, 2025
GROUP 2: August 10 – 20, 2025
(11 days/10 nights)
Welcome to Tanzania!
DAY 1
Karibu Tanzania! Today you’ll arrive at the Kilimanjaro International Airport (Airport code – JRO) where you’ll be picked up by your private driver and escorted to the Original Maasai Lodge. You ladies are going to gasp when you see this place- it is SO cool! You’ll stay in a traditional (and super trendy!) Maasai-style boma with a view of Mt Kilimanjaro in the distance.
Once you’ve checked in you’ll have free time to explore the lodge or relax and unwind until we meet for our welcome dinner.
(Dinner included)
DAY 2
Hang with the TGG at the Maasai Lodge in West Kilimanjaro
Wake up with coffee delivered to your boma, grab breakfast at the buffet and then head out for a nature walk with one of the Maasai guides. You’ll have the afternoon free to relax by the pool, book a massage, make jewelry with the Maasai mamas – or do all 3!
In the evening the TGG will join the Maasai for spear throwing, a sundown ceremony and storytelling by the fire. The Maasai Lodge is truly a special place and if it weren’t for safari starting the next day, you wouldn’t want to leave!
(Breakfast, lunch & dinner included)
DAY 3
Game Drive in Tarangire National Park
Your inner child that grew up on The Lion King is going to be squealing because today we go on our first game drive in Tarangire National Park!! This park has the highest density of elephants in the country, so you’re likely to see lots of them today. With the towering baobab trees all throughout the park, it’s also a hot spot for giraffe sightings. Tarangire is one of the only parks in Tanzania where you can experience a game drive at night, so the TGG is going to do just that! Not only will you get the chance to spot animals during the day, but you’ll also get to do it at night – when many of the animals become more active!
DAY 4
We say goodbye to Tarangire National Park – but don’t be too sad! Since we are staying at a lodge inside the park, we get a bonus game drive this morning after check out!
We will stop at a local Maasai Village and distribute solar lights and water filters to families without electricity because leaving places better than we found them is the Travel Girl Gang way! We’ll continue on towards the Ngorongoro Crater and get checked into our lodge for the next two nights.
(Breakfast, lunch & dinner included both days)
DAY 5
Game Drive in the Ngorongoro Crater
After an early breakfast the TGG will load up and be one of the first safari vehicles to descend 2,000 feet down into the crater for a full day of game drives! The Ngorongoro Crater was formed millions of years ago when a volcano exploded and collapsed in on itself and it is now classified as a UNESCO world heritage site. The floor of the crater is covered in nutritious grasses and is home to a ton of wildlife. Whether it be elephants, warthogs, zebras or lions – no matter where you look, you are guaranteed to see an animal of some sort!
(Breakfast, lunch & dinner included)
Day 6 & 7
Game Drives in the Central Serengeti
Serengeti National Park has been named the best national park in the world for the fifth year in a row and the TGG is going to spend two full days here! We’ll go on multiple game drives looking for all the big cats (plus dozens of other species!) that call the Serengeti home. In between our game drives, we’ll be relaxing at our boutique tented lodge where you may see zebras grazing right outside your door!
*** Optional Sunrise Hot Air Balloon Ride over the Serengeti***
(Breakfast, lunch & dinner included)
Day 8
Final Game Drive & Transfer to Zanzibar
After completing our very last game drive of the trip, we’ll be transported to the local airstrip to take a short flight to Zanzibar for some beach time! We’ll spend one night in historic Stone Town – another UNESCO world heritage site and the home of Freddie Mercury!
(Breakfast included)
Day 9 & 10
Nakupenda Sandbank Island Boat Trip
Nakupenda sandbank island is a tiny strip of white powdery sand surrounded by the most beautiful turquoise blue water you’ve ever seen! Today the TGG will take a boat trip out to Nakupenda where we will swim in the gorgeous waters of the Indian Ocean and enjoy a seafood feast on the beach! After spending some time out on the water, we’ll be transported to our beach resort in Nungwi where we’ll be staying the next 2 nights.
(Breakfast and lunch included)
Chillin’ in Nungwi
We’ve been out adventuring every single day – it’s time to chill! Enjoy a slow morning waking up to the sound of the waves outside your window before throwing on your swimsuit to catch some rays. There are no set plans, but I suspect that we’ll be altogether out on the beach having some fun in the sun! It’s the last full day traveling with Travel Girl Gang, so we’ll gather for some evening drinks & girl time before sending everyone off to the airport tomorrow.
(Breakfast included)
DAY 11
It’s not goodbye, it’s “see ya later!”
You’ll have the morning free to have breakfast, get packed up and ready for transfer to the Zanzibar Airport (airport code – ZNZ) where you will depart for home.
Our bucket lists have been checked and our hearts are full as this Travel Girl Gang trip comes to an end. I KNOW we will see each other again, so as I always say on my TGG trips – It’s not “goodbye,” it’s “see you later!”
(Breakfast included)

Ashley is personable, sweet and a fun person to be around. The trip was thoughtfully planned out and perfectly executed.

Meet your trip Leader!
Travel RN to Travel CEO ️
I’m Ashley – a travel entrepreneur who brings women all around the world to discover new, once in a lifetime experiences while making lifelong friendships. Everyone says that, but on my trips girls go from traveling together to being in each other’s weddings!
Our motto is “You CAN travel with us,” and I’m on a mission to help YOU come home a new person with new travel friends and a new passport stamp!
Back in 2018, I was an ICU nurse who discovered her passion for travel, but I didn’t want to go alone and I could never find friends that would commit. I decided to hang up my stethoscope and start a business hosting group trips for women that wanted to “go global” and check their bucket lists – TOGETHER! So far, I’ve taken over 200 women on trips through 9 different countries from Jordan to Egypt to Greece and I’m just getting started!
“This was truly the trip of a lifetime! Everything was well organized and flowed very smoothly. The safari guides were truly amazing, friendly, knowledgeable and knew all the best spots for finding animals. Spending the last few days on the beach in Zanzibar truly topped off a perfect vacation. Started the trip as a group of strangers and left as friends. Many laughs and good times were had. I’d recommend everyone experience at least one trip hosted by Ashley. I know I’ll be back!”
