Flight from Zanzibar to Arusha Airport / Transfer game drive to Serengeti

Today, you will take a morning flight at 08:00 AM from Zanzibar to Arusha. Upon arrival at Arusha Airport at 09:30 AM, you will be warmly welcomed by our driver-guide. After a brief orientation, you will begin your drive to Serengeti National Park, specifically to the southern part known as Ndutu. Along the way, you will stop at the Olduvai Gorge Museum, where you'll have the opportunity to take photos.

Southern Serengeti provides the best wildlife viewing during the green season, which is from December to March. Ndutu is located in the southern part of the Serengeti plains, where around 8,000 wildebeest babies are born every day. It is the best place to spot six species of cats—leopard, lion, cheetah, caracal, African wildcat—and other wildlife species.

After lunch, we'll continue our game-viewing drive to witness the wildlife of Ndutu. Afterwards, we'll head to our lodgings, a permanent tented camp in the midst of the wilderness for dinner and overnight stay.
