4 Days fly-in Safari to Serengeti and Ngorongoro
This 4-day fly-in safari to the Serengeti and Ngorongoro is designed for people with limited time, older people who don’t want to drive long hours to the Serengeti from Arusha or Kilimanjaro, and those who want to experience the Serengeti from the sky. On this tour, three days will be spent in the Central Serengeti, and the last day will be spent at Ngorongoro Crater before driving to Arusha.
Day 00: Arrival at Kilimanjaro Airport
Joagro Safaris Tanzania representative will meet you at the airport and drive you to the hotel in the heart of Arusha City, ready for the next day’s safari experience in Tanzania. On this day, you will be packed with safari briefs on the general safari plan, accommodations, and confirmation of the exact time you will be picked up to start the next day.
- MEALS: Bed | Breakfast BB
- ACCOMMODATION: Tulia Boutique/ Charity Hotel or Forest Hill
Day 01: Fly Arusha-Serengeti National Park
On this day, you will be picked up from your hotel depending on your location, though we normally do have three destinations, which are Arusha, Dar es Salaam, or Zanzibar, and fly to Seronera in central Serengeti for a full day game drive until late evening. The central park area, known as the Seronera area, is one of the richest wildlife habitats in the park, featuring the Seronera River, which provides a valuable water source to this area and therefore attracts wildlife that is well representative of most of the Serengeti’s species.
- MEALS: Breakfast | Lunch | Dinner
- ACCOMMODATION: Serengeti Heritage
Day 02: Serengeti National park full day
This will be a full day in the beautiful Serengeti doing game drives, with a break at noon for lunch and continuing with game drives until late evening. Serengeti Heritage Lodge provides dinner and overnight accommodations.
- MEALS: Breakfast | Lunch |Dinner
- ACCOMMODATION: Serengeti Heritage Lodge
Day 03: Full day Serengeti game drive.
You wake up very early in the morning to catch up with the sunrise in the beautiful Serengeti, ready to start a day chasing animals until late evening. Dinner and overnight will be at Serena Lodge or the same standard hotel.
- MEALS: Breakfast | Lunch | Dinner
- ACCOMMODATION: Serena Lodge
Day 04: Ngorongoro Crater – Arusha
After an early breakfast at the lodge, you will drive to Ngorongoro Crater, which is over six hundred meters deep. The Ngorongoro Conservation Area helps a substantial variety of animals, which encompass herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo, and large African elephants. Another huge draw card to this picturesque country-wide park is its dense populace of predators, which encompass lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and the ever-elusive leopard, which every now and then calls for a skilled eye to observe. Furthermore, we are able to go to Lake Magadi, a massive, however shallow, alkaline lake at the southwestern corner; that’s one of the major capabilities of the crater. A massive quantity of flamingos, hippos, and different water birds can generally be seen here. Drive to Arusha, where the 4-day fly-in safari to the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater ends.
