4-Day Fly-In Tanzania Great Migration Crossing Safari

Highlights

Experience the Great Wildebeest Migration like never before on this action-packed 4-day safari. Fly from Zanzibar to Serengeti, and witness one of nature’s most dramatic events — the river crossings at the Mara River, where wildebeests, zebras, and antelopes face crocodile-infested waters in their journey toward Kenya. You’ll enjoy thrilling game drives, expert guidance, and top-notch hospitality, making this a once-in-a-lifetime safari adventure.

Details Itinerary

Your journey begins with a flight from Zanzibar Airport (ZNZ) to Kogatende Airstrip in the northern Serengeti, typically between 8:00–11:00 AM (flight times may vary). Upon arrival, your friendly English-speaking guide will greet you with a welcome gift of champagne and fresh fruits.

Without delay, your first game drive begins right from the airstrip. You’ll explore the vast Serengeti, home to the Great Migration — millions of wildebeests, zebras, and antelopes traveling across the plains in search of greener pastures. If you’re lucky, you’ll witness the dramatic Mara River crossing, where crocodiles lurk and predators wait nearby. It’s a front-row seat to nature at its rawest.

Accommodation: Sero Tented Camps

Start your day early with a sunrise game drive at 6:00 AM, when wildlife is most active and the golden morning light paints the plains. Return to your camp around 9:00 AM for breakfast and a bit of rest, before heading out again for more exploration.

The day is dedicated to spotting big cats like lions, cheetahs, and leopards, as well as herds of grazing animals and birds. The northern Serengeti is especially rich with wildlife during migration season, offering some of the best safari action in Africa.

Accommodation: Tukaone Hembe Camp

After breakfast, begin the day with a final game drive through the Serengeti, taking in more of its majestic wildlife. Later, your journey continues toward the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, where lush highlands and cooler temperatures await.

Arrive at your lodge in the evening and enjoy a relaxing dinner with views of the surrounding hills. This is a perfect moment to unwind and prepare for tomorrow’s descent into the Ngorongoro Crater.

Accommodation: Ngorongoro Marera Mountain View Lodge

After a hearty breakfast, you’ll collect your picnic lunch and descend into the stunning Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the world’s most unique ecosystems.

Known for having Africa’s highest concentration of wildlife, the crater is home to lions, elephants, buffaloes, zebras, wildebeests, hippos, and even the endangered black rhino.

After your crater tour, your driver will transfer you to Arusha Airport, where you’ll catch your return flight to Zanzibar, ending your incredible safari adventure.
