2-Day Serengeti Safari Itinerary

Day 1: Zanzibar → Fly to Serengeti → Afternoon Game Drive

Your Safari Begins in Zanzibar

Your day safari starts in Zanzibar.

Depending on the arrangements included in your package, you will be collected from your hotel and transferred to the airport for your domestic flight to the Serengeti.

We recommend preparing a small, soft-sided safari bag and keeping your passport and other important travel documents easily accessible.

At the airport, check in for your safari flight and board a small aircraft connecting Zanzibar with the Serengeti.

Fly from Zanzibar to the Serengeti

Leave the Indian Ocean behind as you travel from Zanzibar toward northern Tanzania.

Safari flights operate differently from large international services. Depending on the day's routing, your aircraft may make scheduled stops before reaching your Serengeti airstrip.

For this itinerary, the usual destination is Seronera Airstrip in Central Serengeti, although the final airstrip and routing are confirmed according to your accommodation, airline and travel date.

Accommodation: Serengeti Sametu Camp

Meals: Lunch & Dinner, subject to package arrangements
Activities: Zanzibar–Serengeti flight & Serengeti game drive

Day 2: Morning Serengeti Safari → Fly Back to Zanzibar

Morning in the Serengeti

Wake up to your final morning in the Serengeti.

After breakfast, check out and begin another game drive.

The morning gives you another opportunity to explore the park and search for wildlife you may not have encountered on your first day.

Your guide will plan the day's route around your flight departure time, ensuring that you make your way toward the airstrip while continuing to enjoy the safari.

Final Game Drive

One of the advantages of staying overnight is that your second day isn't simply a transfer back to the airport.

The journey through the Serengeti toward the airstrip remains part of your safari.

You may revisit an area where interesting wildlife was seen the previous day or explore a different part of Central Serengeti, depending on time and conditions.

Return to Seronera Airstrip

At the appropriate time, arrive at Seronera Airstrip for your return flight.

Say goodbye to your safari guide and check in for your flight back toward Zanzibar.

The exact departure time and routing depend on the confirmed airline schedule for your travel date.

Fly Back to Zanzibar

Board your safari aircraft and leave the Serengeti behind as you return to Zanzibar.

Upon arrival in Zanzibar, collect your luggage.

If your package includes a return transfer, your driver will meet you and take you back to your hotel.

You can then continue your Zanzibar holiday—with a very different set of memories from the previous two days.

Meals: Breakfast & Lunch, subject to flight timing/package
Activities: Morning game drive & Serengeti–Zanzibar flight
