4-Day from Zanzibar to Serengeti Safari

Your adventure begins with an arranged transfer to Zanzibar Airport in the early morning. After checking in for your Flightlink scheduled flight, you’ll take off at 08:00, soaring above Tanzania’s breathtaking landscapes. The 3-hour journey to the Serengeti offers incredible aerial views of the country’s diverse terrain, from turquoise coastal waters to the vast savannah plains of the Serengeti.

Upon landing at Seronera Airstrip at 11:00, you’ll be warmly welcomed by your experienced driver-guides, who will take you straight into the heart of the Serengeti for your first exhilarating game drive. As you navigate through the park, you’ll have the chance to spot elephants, giraffes, and possibly the elusive leopard as they roam freely across the open plains. Serengeti’s wildlife is diverse and abundant, offering a true introduction to Tanzania’s natural wonders.

After the day’s adventure, you’ll proceed to Kubukubu Tented Lodge, where you’ll be greeted with a refreshing drink and spectacular views over the Serengeti. Relax and unwind before enjoying dinner under the stars, surrounded by the sounds of the African bush.

Wake up early and feel the excitement of a full day of game drives in the Serengeti. After a hearty breakfast at the lodge, you’ll head out in search of Africa’s famed wildlife. Keep your eyes peeled for prides of lions basking in the morning sun, zebras and wildebeest crossing the plains, and buffaloes grazing alongside hippos in the river. The Serengeti is known for its dense populations of predators, so you’ll have a high chance of witnessing the thrilling drama of a hunt.

Break for a picnic lunch amidst the serene backdrop of the wilderness, then continue exploring the park in the afternoon, when animals become more active as the temperature cools down. Your guide will take you to some of the park's most scenic areas, providing ample opportunities to spot not only the Big Five but also giraffes, cheetahs, and the hundreds of bird species that call this region home.

As the sun begins to set, return to Kubukubu Tented Lodge for a relaxing evening. After a delicious dinner, you can share stories around the campfire or simply unwind, taking in the magnificent night sky.

Today offers another day of immersive wildlife experiences in the Serengeti. Whether you choose to embark on a full-day game drive or split your day with a morning and late afternoon drive, the day promises more unforgettable encounters with nature.

By evening, return to Kubukubu Tented Lodge for your final night in the Serengeti. As you enjoy your dinner, listen to the distant roars of lions and the rustle of nocturnal creatures coming to life.
