4-Day Beach to Bush, Fly in, Fly out Luxury Safari

Begin your safari adventure with an early morning pickup from your hotel in Zanzibar, followed by a scenic flight to the heart of the Serengeti. The journey includes a brief stop at Arusha Airport before landing at Seronera Airstrip around 11:00 a.m. Upon arrival, set off on a thrilling private game drive through the iconic landscapes of the Serengeti, with the opportunity to spot diverse wildlife throughout the day. As the sun sets over the plains, you’ll head to your lodge for a delicious dinner and overnight stay. Overnight at Lala Salama Serengeti Luxury Camp • Luxury tented camp located inside Central Serengeti NP.

The Seronera valley is the heart of the Serengeti and a year-round game-viewing area. Permanent water, rocky kopjes and short-grass plains create the highest density of big cats in Africa: roughly 1 lion per 10 km², and the best leopard sightings on the circuit.

Mornings start before sunrise to catch the cats while they are still active; midday is a slow picnic in the shade of an acacia. In the afternoon we work the riverine fig trees for leopards and the kopjes for resting prides. Distances are long but every stop is worth it.

After breakfast, you’ll begin your drive from the Ngorongoro region back to Arusha Airport, enjoying the scenic journey through the highlands. Upon arrival, you’ll catch your afternoon flight back to Zanzibar, bringing your incredible safari experience to a close.

Days are yours to design. Snorkel the Mnemba Atoll, sail a traditional dhow at sunset, swim with dolphins at Kizimkazi, take a spice tour or simply do nothing under a coconut palm. Our local representative is on call for whatever you want to add.
