Tour Overview
If you have always dreamed of the Serengeti but have limited time, the fly-in safari is your answer. Skip the long overland drives and step directly from your light aircraft onto the golden plains of one of the world’s most celebrated wildlife destinations. From the moment you land, you are in the heart of the action.
This 2 Days Serengeti Fly-In Safari is crafted for discerning travellers who want maximum experience with minimum time spent in transit. Flying in from Zanzibar or Arusha, you arrive at a private airstrip deep within the park and are whisked directly to your luxury tented camp, a world of canvas elegance, gourmet meals, and personalised service set against a backdrop of endless plains and unforgettable wildlife.
Two days here means two full days of game drives, morning and evening, in the company of an expert guide whose knowledge of the Serengeti ecosystem is both encyclopaedic and deeply personal. Lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephant, and buffalo are all regularly encountered. If timed right, the Great Migration adds a layer of spectacle that is beyond anything cinema can prepare you for.
This safari is especially popular as a honeymoon add-on from Zanzibar and as a bucket-list experience for luxury travellers passing through East Africa.

Day-by-Day Itinerary
Day 1: Fly into Serengeti – Afternoon Game Drive
Board your light aircraft flight from Arusha or Zanzibar and settle in as the dramatic landscape of Tanzania unfolds below you, acacia-dotted plains stretching endlessly toward the horizon, ribbons of river winding through golden grasslands, and the blue silhouette of volcanic highlands in the distance.
Your pilot touches down on one of the Serengeti’s bush airstrips, and your camp vehicle is there to meet you. After a refreshing welcome drink and a brief settle-in at your luxurious tented camp, head straight out for an afternoon game drive. The Serengeti rarely disappoints. Lions are often spotted resting under acacia trees, cheetahs scan open plains from termite mounds, and vast herds of zebra and wildebeest move across the landscape in search of fresh grass.
Evening sundowners in the bush before returning to camp for a candlelit dinner under the stars.
Day 2: Full Day Serengeti Game Drives – Departure Flight
Wake before sunrise for an early morning game drive, widely considered the very best time to spot predators on the hunt. Lions, leopards, and wild dogs are most active in the golden hour after dawn, and your experienced guide will put you exactly where the action is.
After a hot bush breakfast, continue exploring the Serengeti until midday. Depending on the season, you may witness the Great Migration, millions of wildebeest and zebra surging across the plains in one of nature’s greatest spectacles.
After lunch at camp, your vehicle transfers you back to the airstrip for your return flight. You leave with full hearts and camera cards to match.
