Only 20 slots available. Pertinent info:

Boasting vivid blue waters, a large array of wildlife to be seen on safari, and over 120 different indigenous African peoples, Tanzania is a beautiful country full of rich cultural and deep-rooted history. We will delve into both while also taking in all of the vibrant beauty and energy that both Dar es Salaam and Zanzibar Island has to offer. Brush up on your Swahili (English is the 2nd official language of Tanzania, so Swahili is not a prerequisite) and join us for a fun and memorable journey.

Once your deposit is made, remaining balance will be $2475 (payable in flexible payment plans ranging from 5 to 7 payments)

Included in this experience:

  • The dates for this retreat are November 4-13, 2025

  • $250 deposit is refundable up to 48 hours after time/date of registration

  • ALL hotel accommodations with breakfast each morning (on Zanzibar Island dinner will also be included)

  • Dar Es Salaam city tour (historical sites, beaches, restaurants and nightlife)

  • 2-day safari in Tarangire and Ngorongoro Crater

  • Visit to Masai Village

  • Flights between DAR and ARK (Dar es Salaam and Arusha) for the 2-day safari

  • Spice Tour in Stone Town (Zanzibar Island)

  • Baraka Natural Aquarium (swim with and feed the turtles)

  • Prison Island tour and Nakupenda Sandbank lunch (and boat to get us there and back)

*** A surprise or 2 thrown in for good measure ***

  • Once all buy-in deposits are received, attendees will be added to a private page where details, payment schedule, etc will be outlined. Airfare from the US is not included (I will keep everyone informed of flight deals).


***Reminder: this is a PHOTOGRAPHY retreat for those in the field (whether professional, semi-professional, or hobbyist). As such, there will be photography-based challenges throughout the trip. I created the IAP Retreats for us to learn from one another, expand upon our current skills, and above all to spark our creativity/inspiration.
