3 Days Fly-in Tanzania Safari to Serengeti and Ngorongoro

Day 1: Fly from Arusha to Serengeti National Park

Your adventure begins with a morning flight from Arusha to Serengeti National Park. The flight takes approximately 1 to 1.5 hours, offering incredible aerial views of Tanzania’s landscapes, including the Great Rift Valley and endless savannah plains.

Upon arrival at the Serengeti airstrip, your safari guide will welcome you and begin your first exciting game drive.

Serengeti is one of the most famous wildlife parks in the world and home to:

• Lions and large predator populations

• Thousands of wildebeest and zebras

• Giraffes roaming the plains

• Elephants moving in herds

• Cheetahs hunting in open grasslands

After the game drive, continue to your safari lodge or luxury tented camp for dinner and overnight stay.

Day 2: Serengeti Game Drive – Transfer to Ngorongoro

After an early breakfast, enjoy a morning game drive in Serengeti National Park. This is the best time to see predators such as lions, leopards, and cheetahs as they are most active during the cooler hours of the day.

Serengeti covers about 14,750 square kilometers, making it one of Africa’s largest and most wildlife-rich national parks.

Wildlife commonly seen includes:

• Lions and lion prides

• Leopards resting in trees

• Cheetahs hunting on open plains

• Large elephant herds

• Buffalo and antelopes

• Zebras and wildebeest

During certain seasons, visitors may also witness the Great Wildebeest Migration, where millions of wildebeests move across the Serengeti ecosystem.

After lunch, depart for the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, enjoying wildlife sightings along the way.

Dinner and overnight near the Ngorongoro Crater rim.

Day 3: Ngorongoro Crater Game Drive – Return to Arusha

On the final day, descend early into the Ngorongoro Crater for a spectacular wildlife game drive.

The Ngorongoro Crater is the largest intact volcanic caldera in the world, often called Africa’s Natural Wildlife Sanctuary. Because of its enclosed ecosystem, the crater has one of the highest concentrations of wildlife in Africa.

Animals commonly seen inside the crater include:

• Black rhinos

• Lions and hyenas

• Elephants and buffalo

• Zebras and wildebeests
