The Overview

This compact fly in package is the perfect complement to a Zanzibar beach holiday, offering genuine Big Five game viewing in Africa's most celebrated national park before returning to the island.

Why it stands out

Journey Highlights

  • Seamless Fly In Safari from Zanzibar
  • Your journey begins with a scheduled flight from Zanzibar's Abeid Amani Karume International Airport directly into the heart of the Serengeti. No long road transfers, no lost time. Within hours you are scanning the plains for lion and elephant, the turquoise coast exchanged for golden savannah. The convenience of a fly in safari means more time immersed in the wild, less time in transit.
  • Exceptional Game Viewing in the Serengeti
  • The Serengeti ecosystem offers unrivaled wildlife densities year round. Over two full days of game drives your guide will lead you through open grasslands, acacia woodlands, and riverine thickets where predators rest and herds gather. Expect to see lions, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, zebras, and if the season aligns, the dramatic river crossings of the Great Migration. Each drive is tailored to the day's activity patterns and your interests.
  • Luxury Accommodation on the Plains
  • Your camp or lodge is chosen for its position, comfort, and service. Fall asleep to the sounds of the African night and wake to the sight of wildlife passing by your veranda. With full board dining and attentive hospitality, every moment away from the game drive vehicle is as memorable as the sightings themselves.
