4 Day Serengeti fly - in Safari Itinerary

Day 1: Arusha → Serengeti (Seronera) — Fly-In Safari & Afternoon Game Drive

Begin your Tanzania fly-in & out safari with a mid-morning flight from Arusha Airport (ARK) to Seronera Airstrip in Central Serengeti National Park (flight schedules vary). On arrival—around 11:00—your Travel Wise Safari guide greets you at the runway with a short briefing and a packed picnic lunch. Set off immediately on your first game drive through the Seronera Valley, one of the best areas in Tanzania for spotting big cats—lion, leopard, and cheetah—along with elephants, buffalo, giraffes, hippos, and vast plains game. After a relaxed lunch stop, continue exploring until late afternoon, making the most of golden-hour photography, then drive to your lodge for dinner and overnight.

Day 2-3 Full game drive in Serengeti National Park

After breakfast at camp, set out for two full days of game drives in Serengeti National Park, Tanzania—the Maasai’s Siringeti, meaning “endless open plains.” The Serengeti’s landscapes are mesmerising: vast grassy plains (golden in the dry season, green and flower-dotted after the rains), seasonal floodplains, patches of forest and shrub savannah, and granite kopjes—2.5-million-year-old rocky outcrops that break the horizon and shelter predators. This habitat is perfectly adapted to continuous grazing, creating heaven for large herbivores and world-class predator encounters. Depending on the season, you may find yourself surrounded by millions of wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle during the Great Migration as they thunder across open country, brave crocodile-infested rivers, and draw the attention of lions, leopards, cheetahs, and hyenas. Each day includes a scenic picnic lunch on the plains, with unhurried morning and afternoon drives led by your Travel Wise Safari guide. As the sun sets, return to camp for dinner and time around the crackling campfire—an unforgettable finish in this UNESCO World Heritage Site, biosphere reserve, and one of Africa’s New Seven Wonders.

After an early breakfast, check out and enjoy a last game drive in Serengeti National Park as you make your way to Seronera Airstrip.

On arrival, a Travel Wise Safari representative will meet you for a private transfer to your Arusha hotel or to Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO) for your onward flight (connections to Zanzibar or Dar es Salaam can be arranged on request). We’ll assist with check-in and luggage; note that bush flights typically allow soft bags, 15–23 kg per person, depending on the airline.
