Whether you're staying in Zanzibar for a beach holiday, honeymoon, or tropical getaway, this safari adds a perfect touch of adventure and unforgettable wildlife experiences to your journey.

Day 1: Zanzibar – Serengeti National Park

Your adventure begins early with a scenic flight from Zanzibar to the Serengeti. The aerial journey alone is a highlight, offering breathtaking views of Tanzania’s diverse landscapes—from the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean to the endless golden plains of the Serengeti below.

Upon arrival at the airstrip in Serengeti National Park, you’ll be met by your experienced safari guide who will brief you on the day’s adventures. Immediately after landing, your game drive begins—no time is wasted as you dive straight into the wild heart of Africa.

Depending on the season and location of your camp (Central Serengeti or Northern Serengeti), you may encounter vast herds of wildebeest and zebra, graceful giraffes, prowling lions, and if lucky, elusive leopards lounging in the trees. The Serengeti is home to the highest concentration of large mammals on Earth and offers exceptional chances to spot elephants, cheetahs, buffalo, hyenas, and more.

After a picnic lunch in the bush or at your lodge, continue exploring the expansive plains during an afternoon game drive. As the sun begins to dip toward the horizon, the landscape transforms with golden light—a perfect opportunity for photography.

In the evening, arrive at your lodge where you’ll enjoy a delicious dinner under the stars. Listen to the distant calls of hyenas and lions as you relax and soak in the magic of the African wilderness.

Day 2: Serengeti – Zanzibar

Wake up to the sounds of the wild and enjoy an early breakfast as the savannah comes alive. Morning is one of the best times to see predators on the hunt or grazing herds starting their day. Set out on a sunrise game drive when the wildlife is most active, giving you a final chance to spot animals you may have missed the day before.

Depending on your flight time, you may have time for a leisurely mid-morning game drive or relax at the camp before transferring to the airstrip. Your return flight to Zanzibar offers another scenic journey over the Great Rift Valley and Tanzania’s beautiful countryside.

You’ll land in Zanzibar by mid to late afternoon and be transferred back to your hotel, ending your whirlwind Serengeti experience with a heart full of memories, and (most likely) hundreds of photos.
