Frequently Asked Questions – 3-Day Fly-in Safari
How long is the flight from Zanzibar to the Serengeti?
The direct bush flight from Zanzibar to Seronera Airstrip in the Serengeti takes approximately 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on routing and stops.
How do I get to the Serengeti on this fly-in safari?
Your journey begins with a scenic scheduled bush flight from either Zanzibar (ZNZ) or Arusha (via Kilimanjaro Airport JRO or Arusha Airport ARK) directly to Seronera Airstrip, nestled in the Central Serengeti—the wildlife heartland of the park. The flight takes approximately 45–90 minutes, offering breathtaking aerial views of the Great Rift Valley, volcanic highlands, and endless golden plains. Upon landing, your private safari guide will greet you at the airstrip with a chilled welcome drink and transfer you to your luxury camp in a premium 4x4 vehicle.
When is the best time to visit for wildlife and the Great Migration?
The Central Serengeti (where we operate) offers exceptional wildlife year-round, but timing enhances specific experiences:
-
December–March: The Great Migration settles in the southern plains for the calving season—a dramatic spectacle with high predator activity.
-
April–May: Lush “green season” with fewer crowds, vibrant landscapes, and excellent birding.
-
June–October: Dry season brings animals to permanent water sources—ideal for Big Five sightings and clear photography.
No matter when you travel, the Serengeti delivers awe-inspiring moments.
Can I add a balloon safari to this itinerary?
Absolutely. We can include an optional sunrise hot air balloon safari on Day 2 or Day 3 for an unforgettable aerial view of the Serengeti (additional cost applies).
What wildlife can I realistically expect to see?
The Serengeti is one of the planet’s richest ecosystems. On a 3-day safari, most guests see:
-
Lions (often in prides, sometimes hunting)
-
Elephants and buffalo herds
-
Giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, and hippos
-
Leopards and cheetahs (especially in the early morning)
-
Hyenas, jackals, and over 500 bird species
While black rhinos are rare, the Serengeti is one of the best places in Africa to complete the Big Five. Your guide’s deep knowledge maximizes your chances.
Are park fees and flights included in the package price?
Yes. Our package includes return flights from Zanzibar, Serengeti park entry fees, accommodation, meals, private game drives, and airport transfers.
Is this safari suitable for families with children?
It is important to note that children under the age of 5 may have restrictions when it comes to participating in certain game drives or bush flights, depending on the specific policies of the operator you choose. However, there is good news! Family tents and customized activities can be arranged to ensure a memorable experience for your family. We encourage you to ask about these options when making your booking to ensure everything is tailored to your needs.
What is the luxury camp experience like?
Imagine wilderness elegance: spacious en-suite tented suites with real beds, fine linens, private verandas, and hot bucket showers under the stars. Camps like Serengeti Pioneer Camp or Lahia Tented Camp blend eco-sensitivity with five-star comfort—think gourmet bush dinners by lantern light, sundowners overlooking the plains, and the distant roar of lions at night. The

-
Medical coverage (including evacuation from remote areas)
-
Trip cancellation/interruption
-
