Some of the most memorable moments of a safari happen around a table or beneath an open African sky. Enjoy a beautifully prepared bush breakfast as the first light touches the landscape, pause for a relaxed bush lunch surrounded by nature, or settle into a bush dinner as the day slowly gives way to night. Each meal brings you closer to the landscape, turning time spent eating into another way to experience Africa.
With Back to Eden Adventure, safari dining can be thoughtfully arranged to suit the rhythm of your journey. Start the morning with breakfast in the wilderness, enjoy lunch in a peaceful setting during your day of exploration, or end the day with dinner beneath the stars. As the afternoon light begins to soften, a sundowner offers another unforgettable moment—raise a glass as the sun disappears across the horizon, surrounded by the sounds and beauty of the African wilderness.
These experiences are about more than food and drinks; they are about atmosphere, connection, and the feeling of being somewhere truly special. Whether watching the sunrise over the savannah during a bush breakfast, enjoying lunch beneath an acacia tree, sharing dinner under the stars, or raising a glass during a spectacular sundowner, every setting adds something unique to your safari. Couples, families, friends, and solo travellers can all enjoy these simple but extraordinary moments that become part of the story of their journey.
This experience is designed to be added to a private safari journey rather than booked as a standalone experience. We can carefully incorporate it into your itinerary alongside your chosen destinations, stays, and other experiences.
For more information about adding this experience to your journey, please get in touch with us and our team will help you plan it around your travel dates and itinerary.








Across Tanzania and Africa, every destination brings its own character to an experience. Discover the places where this journey can unfold, from open savannahs and forests to wetlands and remote wilderness, each offering a unique landscape, atmosphere, and way to experience Africa.
Every experience is unique, and we know you may have questions before your journey begins. From the best time to visit and what to bring, to what to expect along the way, our frequently asked questions provide the essential details you need to feel prepared and confident. Explore the answers below and discover how we make every experience with Back to Eden Adventure seamless, comfortable, and memorable.
You can enjoy a variety of experiences depending on your safari itinerary, including bush breakfast, bush lunch, bush dinner, and sundowners. A morning bush breakfast can begin your day in the wilderness, while lunch offers a relaxed pause during your safari. In the evening, a bush dinner or sundowner creates a beautiful way to enjoy the changing colours of the African sky and the atmosphere of the wilderness.
Most bush breakfasts, lunches, dinners, and sundowners are arranged privately by your lodge or camp at a suitable location within the property or surrounding wilderness. Sometimes, your safari may include a hot packed breakfast or lunch enjoyed in the bush during a game drive, allowing you to continue exploring without returning to the lodge.
Solo travellers can enjoy a peaceful meal surrounded by nature, while couples can turn a bush dinner or sundowner into a romantic moment. Families can make the experience more interactive and fun, especially during sundowners, where children can enjoy simple games, cards, storytelling, or time together while watching the sunset.
Yes. These experiences are carefully planned by our team and conducted in appropriate locations while following park regulations and wildlife-safety procedures. Your safari guide and the relevant park staff ensure that you can enjoy the experience responsibly and comfortably in the wilderness.
Absolutely. These experiences can be added to your private Serengeti safari and arranged around your daily game drives, accommodation, special occasions, and personal preferences. Back to Eden Adventures will coordinate the details to make each dining moment a seamless part of your Tanzania journey.
Your journey is designed to inspire discovery, adventure, and unforgettable moments. Explore our carefully crafted itineraries or let us create a personalized experience that matches your travel style, interests, and dreams of Tanzania.
There is always more to discover beyond one experience. Explore other ways to experience Tanzania and Africa, from wildlife encounters and nature to culture, adventure, and peaceful moments in the wilderness. Each experience brings a different perspective and another opportunity to make your journey truly memorable.
Some moments deserve to be celebrated somewhere extraordinary. Return to Tanzania and mark your anniversary, renew your vows, or celebrate another chapter of your love surrounded by the beauty of Africa. From a private wilderness setting to a breathtaking sunset, every moment is designed to make your celebration feel deeply personal and beautifully unforgettable. Begin with a meaningful vow renewal or traditional-inspired Maasai blessing, surrounded by the sounds, landscapes, and spirit of Africa. Exchange rings, share your promises once again, and let the moment unfold naturally as Maasai songs, cultural traditions, flowers, photography, and a beautifully prepared setting bring your celebration to life. Continue your celebration with a private safari, bush breakfast, romantic sundowner, or intimate dinner beneath the African sky. Whether you are celebrating five years, twenty-five years, or simply the journey you have shared together, Back to Eden Adventure creates the experience around your story, turning your time in Africa into a beautiful reminder of where you began and everything still ahead.
Escape to the northern shores of Zanzibar and discover two of the island’s most beautiful coastal destinations. With Back to Eden Adventure, spend a day between Nungwi and Kendwa, where soft white sands, warm turquoise waters, traditional dhow boats, and the rhythm of island life create the perfect setting to slow down and enjoy the Indian Ocean. Begin your escape in Nungwi, a lively coastal village where Zanzibar’s fishing traditions remain part of everyday life. Walk along the shoreline, see local fishermen and traditional dhow boats, explore the village, or simply relax beside the ocean. The area offers a wonderful blend of natural beauty and authentic coastal life, giving you a glimpse beyond the beach resorts. Continue to Kendwa, where a wide stretch of white sand meets clear, calm waters. It is a beautiful place to swim, relax, enjoy a refreshing drink, or simply let the day unfold at your own pace. As the afternoon comes to an end, stay by the beach and watch the sun slowly disappear over the Indian Ocean—a simple but unforgettable moment that captures the beauty of Zanzibar. Whether you spend your day swimming, exploring, relaxing, enjoying fresh seafood, or simply walking barefoot along the shore, the Nungwi & Kendwa Beach Escape is about giving yourself time to breathe and enjoy the island. Back to Eden Adventure can shape the experience around your pace, creating a day that feels effortless, personal, and entirely yours.
A night game drive reveals a completely different side of the African wilderness. As the sun disappears and darkness settles across the landscape, the bush becomes quieter, mysterious, and full of movement. With a skilled guide and spotlight leading the way, you may encounter animals that are rarely seen during the day, from elusive leopards and nocturnal cats to hyenas, bush babies, porcupines, and other creatures of the night. The experience is about more than simply seeing wildlife. It is the feeling of being deep in the wilderness after sunset, surrounded by darkness and the sounds of the African bush. A pair of glowing eyes in the distance, the call of a nocturnal animal, or the sudden appearance of a predator can turn an ordinary evening into one of the most memorable moments of your journey. For those who want to experience Tanzania beyond the traditional daytime safari, a night game drive adds a sense of adventure and discovery to the journey. It offers a rare opportunity to witness the wilderness as it truly is after dark, when different species emerge and the rhythm of the landscape changes completely.
Leave the safari vehicle behind and explore the Ngorongoro Highlands on foot, where ancient volcanic landscapes, lush forests, open grasslands, and Maasai communities create an extraordinary setting for adventure. The experience can take you to Empakaai Crater and Olmoti Crater, two beautiful volcanic landscapes that offer a completely different perspective of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. At Empakaai Crater, trek along the dramatic crater rim before descending through lush forest towards the crater floor, where a beautiful soda lake rests among the surrounding vegetation. The views from the rim are spectacular, stretching across the highlands and, on clear days, towards the distant Great Rift Valley and Ol Doinyo Lengai. At Olmoti Crater, a shorter but rewarding hike leads through montane forest and open highland scenery to the crater rim, where you can look down into the peaceful volcanic depression and discover the Munge Waterfall flowing into the surrounding landscape. Together, Empakaai and Olmoti offer an unforgettable way to experience the Ngorongoro Highlands beyond the traditional safari. Walking through these ancient volcanic landscapes allows you to slow down, breathe in the highland air, discover hidden scenery, and connect more closely with the land and communities that call this extraordinary region home.
Set in the beautiful foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro, the Serval Wildlife Experience offers a different way to connect with Tanzania’s wildlife. Instead of travelling through vast wilderness in search of animals, here you have the opportunity to encounter some of Africa’s most beautiful species in a more intimate and carefully designed natural setting. Giraffes move gracefully through the landscape, zebras create striking scenes against the greenery, and lions offer an unforgettable glimpse into the character of one of Africa’s most iconic predators. What makes Serval special is the feeling of being close to nature. You can take your time watching the animals, appreciating their individual personalities, and learning more about them while surrounded by beautiful gardens, trees, and views toward the Kilimanjaro landscape. It is an experience that works particularly well for travellers who want to combine wildlife with a slower, more relaxed day, while also creating wonderful opportunities for photography and meaningful memories. Serval can also become part of your stay rather than simply a daytime visit. The property offers villas where guests can stay overnight, allowing you to extend the experience and enjoy the peaceful surroundings for longer. Wake up close to nature, spend time with the wildlife, and combine your stay with other northern Tanzania experiences such as a safari, Kilimanjaro adventure, Materuni, or Chemka Hot Springs. Whether visiting for the day or staying overnight, Serval offers a more personal way to experience Tanzania’s wildlife.
Step into the green heart of Zanzibar and discover the natural world of Jozani Forest, the island’s largest remaining natural forest. With Back to Eden Adventure, explore winding forest paths beneath towering trees, surrounded by tropical vegetation, birds, butterflies, and the sounds of life moving through the canopy. The highlight of the experience is the chance to encounter the Zanzibar red colobus monkey, an endangered species found naturally on the island. These distinctive monkeys are known for their reddish-brown backs, white markings, and fascinating social behaviour. As you walk through the forest, your guide will help you spot them among the trees and share stories about their behaviour, habitat, and importance to Zanzibar’s natural heritage. Jozani offers much more than a wildlife walk. Depending on the experience selected, you can explore the surrounding waterways by kayak, offering a peaceful perspective of Zanzibar’s natural landscapes, or take time for bird watching and discover some of the many bird species that inhabit the forest and surrounding wetlands. These activities allow you to experience the area at a slower pace and appreciate the remarkable variety of life beyond the forest floor. Explore different habitats, from dense woodland to mangrove and wetland areas, while learning about native plants, medicinal trees, and the delicate ecosystems that support Zanzibar’s wildlife. For Back to Eden Adventure, a visit to Jozani is about creating meaningful encounters with nature—walking beneath the canopy, paddling through peaceful waters, watching birds in their natural environment, and discovering the unique wildlife of Zanzibar.
Our guests leave with more than memories—they leave with stories to share and moments they will never forget. With 5-star reviews from travellers around the world, we are proud to create journeys filled with genuine care, unforgettable experiences, and the beauty of Tanzania.

Incredible experience with Back to Eden Adventures As the Great Migration season kicks off in June, I'm excited to share my unforgettable Safari experience in Tanzania with Back to Eden Adventures. Their expert guide Hassan took us on thrilling game drives, bringing us face-to-face with incredible wildlife. We savored every moment, eagerly awaiting sightings of lions and cheetahs in action. The highlight of our trip was a luxurious 2-day glamping adventure deep in the middle of forest, with impeccable service from the staff. Special thanks to Laurent and Gift and for their exceptional customer service, which truly made our experience unforgettable. We highly recommend Back to Eden Adventures to anyone planning a Tanzanian adventure.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Great safari experience! Planned a trip for my parents and another couple, and they had an amazing time! They mentioned Laurent specifically took very good care of them during the whole tour and to their particular needs whether it was the food, their medical conditions etc. I definitely recommend this tour for safari in Serengeti.
