4-Day Fly Safari from Arusha to Serengeti & Ngorongoro

Upon your arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, one of our friendly drivers will be waiting to warmly welcome you and transfer you to your hotel in Arusha. Enjoy breathtaking views of Mount Meru on the way, and settle in for dinner and a relaxing overnight stay. After your journey, unwind and rest comfortably. If you arrive early, you can take some time to relax or join a city tour of Arusha. In the afternoon, our driver will pick you up for an enjoyable tour, including a visit to a Maasai village, the Arusha Monument, the local market, and an art gallery.

After breakfast, at 8:00 am, our driver will pick you up and transfer you to Arusha Airport for your 10:00 am flight to Central Serengeti’s Seronera Airstrip. You will arrive at approximately 10:45 am, where our driver-guide will meet you to begin your exciting game drive. Central Serengeti is renowned for its rich wildlife, particularly the Big Five. Here, you may spot lions. The Serengeti is home to over 3,000 lions, one of Africa’s largest populations, as well as elusive African leopards. Around 1,000 elephants also roam this area, making it a prime location for unforgettable wildlife encounters. This is your chance to see the iconic Big Five up close in their natural habitat. A packed lunch will be served at a scenic picnic site inside the park, allowing you to relax and enjoy the surroundings. The game drive will continue into the afternoon and end around 4:00 pm, after which you will return to your lodge. Dinner will be served at the lodge.

After breakfast at the camp, you will drive in Central Serengeti for a full-day game drive, continuing your search for Africa’s Big Five. In the late afternoon, you will depart for your lodge located on the Ngorongoro Crater rim for an overnight stay. This allows you to descend into the crater early the next morning, when wildlife is most active. The park is renowned for its rich resident wildlife, particularly the Big Five, named after the 5 most sought-after trophies. The Serengeti is believed to host the largest population of lions in Africa, with over 3,000 individuals in the ecosystem. The elusive African leopard is also commonly spotted in the Seronera region, with an estimated population of around 1,000.

Depart after breakfast at the lodge for the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, embarking on a full-day crater tour game drive with a picnic lunch. In the evening, we’ll drive to Arusha, where your safari will come to an end. The highlight of Ngorongoro is its deep, volcanic crater, the world’s largest unflooded and unbroken caldera. Approximately 20 kilometers across, 600 meters deep, and covering 300 square kilometers, the Ngorongoro Crater is a breathtaking natural wonder. We will explore Lake Magadi, a large but shallow alkaline lake in the southwestern corner, known for its abundance of flamingos and other waterbirds, as well as hippos.
