3-Day Tanzania Safari from Zanzibar (Serengeti & Ngorongoro Crater)

Your adventure begins early in the morning with a flight from Zanzibar to the Serengeti. Upon arrival, your professional safari guide will greet you and begin an exhilarating game drive. The Serengeti is famous for its vast plains and abundant wildlife, including the Big Five. Spot elephants, buffalo, giraffes, and possibly a pride of lions lounging under an acacia tree. A delicious picnic lunch is served in the park before continuing the afternoon safari. By evening, you’ll check into a luxury lodge or tented camp, where a delicious dinner awaits before you settle in for the night.

After an early breakfast, embark on a morning game drive in Serengeti while enjoying the crisp morning air and golden sunrise. This is the best time to see predators in action, as lions, leopards, and cheetahs are more active in the early hours. You’ll stop for a picnic lunch before departing Serengeti and driving toward the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. En route, you’ll witness dramatic landscapes and more wildlife along the way. Upon arrival at the crater rim, check in to your lodge or tented camp for dinner and relaxation.

After breakfast, descend into the Ngorongoro Crater for a spectacular game drive. The crater is one of Africa’s best safari destinations, home to thousands of animals, including rhinos, hippos, zebras, and large elephant bulls. With the crater’s enclosed ecosystem, animal sightings are almost guaranteed. Enjoy a picnic lunch by a scenic spot before driving to the airstrip for your return flight to Zanzibar, arriving in the early evening.
