Day 1: Arrival in Serengeti
Your Tanzania safari trip starts with a scenic flight from Zanzibar to Seronera Airstrip in the Serengeti. Upon arrival, your professional safari guide will greet you in a custom 4×4 safari vehicle and take you on your first thrilling game drive en route to camp. Along the way, keep an eye out for elephants, giraffes, zebras, and possibly even lions or leopards.
After arriving at your lodge or tented camp, enjoy a freshly prepared lunch and take some time to relax. In the late afternoon, set out on another game drive when predators such as lions and cheetahs become active. The golden Serengeti light creates perfect photographic opportunities as herds of wildebeest and gazelle graze across the plains. Return in the evening for dinner and overnight at Tukaone Camps, where the sounds of the wilderness surround you.

Day 2: Full Day Serengeti Exploration
Day two of your Tanzania safari trip is dedicated to exploring the vast Serengeti National Park. Begin with an early morning game drive, the best time to catch predators hunting in the cool air. Witness unforgettable moments as lions patrol the plains, cheetahs sprint after gazelles, or leopards lounge in acacia trees.
After returning for lunch and relaxation, you’ll embark on an afternoon game drive, covering different sections of the park. Traverse open grasslands, woodlands, and rocky kopjes that often provide shelter for big cats. The Serengeti is home to elephants, buffalo, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, and countless bird species, making every drive unique. As the sun sets, return to Tukaone Camps for dinner and overnight under the star-filled African sky.

Day 3: Morning Game Drive & Return to Zanzibar
On your final morning in the Serengeti, enjoy one last game drive before breakfast. This is your chance to savor the peaceful beauty of the savannah and perhaps spot wildlife you may have missed earlier, such as hyenas, hippos, or even the elusive black rhino.
Afterward, your guide will transfer you to Seronera Airstrip for your flight back to Zanzibar. As your plane takes off, admire the aerial views of the Serengeti’s endless plains, bringing a magical close to your Tanzania safari trip. By afternoon, you’ll be back on the tropical shores of Zanzibar, concluding a short yet unforgettable African adventure.
