4 Day Unrushed Fly In Serengeti Safari from Zanzibar

Depart Zanzibar in the morning on a scheduled flight to Central Serengeti (approx. 1.5 hours; flight times may vary by carrier). Upon arrival at the Seronera Airstrip, your guide will greet you for an introductory game drive. Explore the vast savannahs and river systems that support resident lions, leopards, giraffes, and elephants year-round. Enjoy a hot lunch at the lodge or picnic in the bush depending on flight timing. Settle into your lodge for sundowners and dinner.

Spend the full day exploring Central Serengeti, one of the most wildlife-rich areas in Tanzania. Early morning game drives offer the best chances of seeing predators in action—lions hunting, hyenas scavenging, or cheetahs on the move. Explore Seronera Valley, where the permanent water sources attract wildlife year-round. Enjoy a picnic lunch under an acacia or return to the lodge before heading out again in the golden afternoon light.

Another full day in the Serengeti allows deeper immersion. Depending on the season, your guide may take you toward different habitats—woodlands, plains, or riverine areas—to follow migration herds or seek out elusive predators. With patience and luck, you may spot a leopard lounging in a sausage tree or witness a lion pride devouring a fresh kill. Meals can be enjoyed at the lodge or as a bush picnic to maximize game viewing hours.

After a final early morning game drive and breakfast, enjoy some leisure time before your transfer to the airstrip for the afternoon flight back to Zanzibar (approx. 1.5 hours; timing depends on the flight booked). Soak in your last views of the Serengeti’s endless plains and wildlife en route to the airstrip. Arrive in Zanzibar by late afternoon, ending your immersive safari experience.
