Flight from Zanzibar straight into the heart of the Serengeti

Upon arrival, your guide will meet you for an afternoon game drive across the endless plains, where you may encounter prides of lions, herds of elephants, graceful giraffes, and abundant plains game. The Serengeti is renowned for its golden sunsets, dramatic landscapes, and unparalleled wildlife density. After an exciting introduction to the park, settle into your lodge or tented camp, where dinner is served under the starry African sky.

Spend a full day exploring Serengeti’s rich ecosystems, from vast savannahs to rocky kopjes where lions often bask in the sun. Depending on the season, you may witness the Great Migration, where thousands of wildebeest and zebras move in search of fresh grazing. Your guide will lead you to prime areas for spotting leopards lounging in acacia trees, cheetahs stalking prey, and elephants roaming freely.

Enjoy an early morning game drive in the Serengeti, a magical time when predators are most active and the rising sun paints the plains in golden hues. This final Serengeti drive is your chance to spot any animals you may have missed, from elusive leopards to majestic elephants. Afterward, depart by road through the scenic highlands toward Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Arrive in the late afternoon at your lodge perched on the crater rim, offering breathtaking views of this natural wonder.

After an early breakfast, descend 600 meters into Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site often called the “Eighth Wonder of the World.” The crater floor is a wildlife paradise, home to lions, black rhinos, buffalo, zebras, flamingos, and hippos. Enjoy a full game drive with picnic lunch by the hippo pool, soaking in the extraordinary scenery and dense concentration of animals. In the afternoon, ascend from the crater and drive to Kilimanjaro International Airport, where you connect with your onward flight back to Zanzibar.
