Preguntas sobre los safaris de 3 días a Tanzania desde Zanzíbar
What are the best parks to visit on a 3-day safari from Zanzibar?
"The top destinations for a 3-day safari from Zanzibar are Nyerere National Park (formerly Selous Game Reserve) and Mikumi National Park, both located in southern Tanzania. These parks are among the finest in East Africa.
You can often fly directly from Zanzibar to these parks, particularly to an airstrip near Nyerere's main eastern gate. Another cost-effective option is to fly to Dar es Salaam and drive to Saadani National Park, which is nearby on the coast.
Alternatively, you could opt for a fly-in safari to some of northern Tanzania's renowned parks such as Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara National Park, or Tarangire National Park."
Is the south or north of Tanzania better for a 3-day safari from Zanzibar?
"Most travelers on a 3-day safari from Zanzibar prefer parks in southern Tanzania, such as Nyerere or Mikumi National Parks, because they are quicker to reach, allowing more time for the actual safari experience. This is crucial when you only have three days.
Saadani National Park is another option. Although it may have less wildlife, its proximity to Zanzibar minimizes travel time.
Visiting northern parks on a 3-day safari is possible but involves more logistics. Typically, you'll need to fly from Zanzibar to Arusha and then take another flight to your chosen park, consuming more time."
Are three days enough for a safari from Zanzibar?
"A 3-day safari from Zanzibar is the minimum recommended duration to enjoy the experience fully. Typically, you'll fly from Zanzibar to the park on the first day, spend two nights there, and return on the third day. This schedule allows for at least four game drives or a combination of game drives and a boat excursion if visiting Nyerere National Park.
With three or four game drives, timed for early mornings and late afternoons when animals are most active, you'll significantly increase your chances of seeing a variety of wildlife."
Are all 3-day safaris from Zanzibar fly-in safaris?
"Yes, a 3-day safari from Zanzibar will involve a flight to the mainland, as Zanzibar itself doesn't offer a true safari experience. While the island has some wildlife parks, they resemble zoos.
The shortest flying option is to Saadani National Park near Dar es Salaam, which you can reach by flight or boat followed by a drive. Most other options, like Nyerere or Mikumi National Parks, require a direct flight to the park.
Most 3-day safaris from Zanzibar are fly-in safaris, where you fly to an airstrip within or near the national park and are then transported to your accommodation."
How much does a 3-day safari from Zanzibar cost?
"For a budget-friendly 3-day safari from Zanzibar, consider a camping trip to Saadani National Park, costing around $200 to $250 per person per day. This typically includes transfers, park fees, accommodation, food, some drinks, a guide, and game drives. You might be expected to help with some camp chores.
For a more luxurious experience in parks like Nyerere or Mikumi, prices start at $400 per person per day and can rise significantly for high-end accommodations. Safaris to northern parks may be even more expensive due to additional flight costs."
Is this safari suitable for families with children?
Absolutely, this safari is designed to be family-friendly! We encourage you to reach out to us for a detailed discussion, especially if you have young children in your group. By doing so, we can tailor the itinerary to better suit their needs and ensure that every family member has an enjoyable and safe experience.
Whether it’s suggestions on suitable activities, optimal viewing times, or specific accommodations, we’re here to help create a memorable adventure for your family.
Is this safari suitable for families with children?
Yes – most safaris from Zanzibar can be tailored for families with children, but it depends on the parks, travel time, and lodge choice.
For example, fly-in safaris to destinations like Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire are ideal because they reduce long driving hours, offer family-friendly lodges with child-appropriate meals, and allow flexible game drives. Many lodges also provide family tents or interconnecting rooms.
However:
-
Some parks have minimum age restrictions for certain activities (e.g., walking safaris).
-
Early morning and full-day game drives may be tiring for younger kids, so shorter, customized drives are recommended.
-
Always choose lodges with safety measures (fenced areas, trained staff) and experienced guides who know how to make safaris engaging for children.
What type of vehicles are used during the safari?
We use customized 4x4 safari vehicles with pop-up roofs for optimal wildlife viewing and photography. All vehicles are equipped with charging ports, a fridge or cooler for drinks, and first aid kits.
How do I book this safari?
Booking is easy! Click the "Plan Your Safari Now" button on this page or contact us directly via email or phone. A deposit is required to secure your spot, with flexible payment options available.
What happens in case of flight delays or cancellations?
Our team will coordinate any necessary changes to your itinerary to ensure you can still enjoy your safari. We recommend booking travel insurance for extra peace of mind.
Is it safe to travel in Tanzania?
Yes, Tanzania is a safe and welcoming destination for travelers. Our guides prioritize your safety and ensure that all aspects of the safari run smoothly.
What kind of food is provided during the safari?
You’ll enjoy a variety of meals, including:
-
Breakfast and dinners at your lodges or campsites.
-
Packed lunches during game drives.
Special dietary needs (vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, etc.) can be accommodated upon request.
