Why Choose This Safari?
If you only have a few days, this fly-in safari puts you in the Serengeti with almost no travel time. You fly from Arusha Airstrip on a scheduled afternoon flight and land in time for a game drive the same day, then spend two full days exploring the open plains with morning and afternoon drives on a shared vehicle. At Serengeti National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site covering about 14,763 km², you share the plains with the wildebeest migration, big cats and a huge variety of other wildlife. You stay at Serengeti Migration Camp, a luxury tented camp with ensuite bathrooms, hot (solar-generated) and cold running water 24 hours a day, and meals included on a full board basis. Departures run daily on request for a minimum of two people, so it’s easy to fit around your dates, and you can extend the program on request with more nights or a Zanzibar beach holiday.

Itinerary
Day 1 — Arusha to Serengeti National Park
In the afternoon you fly from Arusha straight into the Serengeti, arriving in time for an afternoon game drive. Seeing the great migration is a spectacular sight, and if you time your safari right you may witness enormous herds of wildebeest moving together as the migration gathers intensity. You’re then taken to Serengeti Migration Camp, where you stay for the next three nights on a full board basis with shared game drives.
Days 2 and 3 — Serengeti National Park
You have two full days in the Serengeti, with morning and afternoon game drives on a shared vehicle through the great open plains, exploring the wildlife of one of the natural wonders of the world. The Serengeti is perhaps best known for the annual migration across the savannah, thousands upon thousands of animals, particularly wildebeest, as far as the eye can see, but the park is also famous for cheetahs, leopards and lions. Some of the big cats follow the herds, while others remain on the central plains, so each drive brings something different. Between drives you return to camp, where the tents are designed with comfort in mind. Each has an ensuite shower room with a flushing toilet, shower and twin vanity basin, with hot (solar-generated) and cold running water 24 hours a day, plus soft furnishings, a writing desk and stationery set, and a room fan. The tents have wooden floors, fixed bathroom walls and fixed wooden doors, all enclosed in canvas.
Day 4 — Serengeti to Arusha
After breakfast you have an en-route game drive to Seronera airstrip for your scheduled flight to Arusha. On arrival you’re transferred to Arusha town for your onward arrangements, and transfers out of town can be arranged on request.

Best Time to Go
No travel window was given for this itinerary, so the advice below comes from the Serengeti’s general seasonality. The wildebeest are on the move through the year, following the rains. They are found on the southern and eastern plains during the rainy season from about November to May, with a calving season from about January to March, and from the end of June, when the dry season begins, the migration moves north in search of fresh grazing. The dry months, roughly June to October, are usually the easiest for spotting wildlife around waterholes and rivers, while the green season brings young animals and fewer visitors. Because the herds move, sightings of the migration depend on timing, so ask our team which area they’re likely to be in on your dates. For park information, see the Tanzania National Parks Authority.

Can I extend this safari?
Yes. The program can be customized, so you can add more nights in the Serengeti or extend with a Zanzibar beach holiday. Contact our team and we’ll plan it around your dates.
What is the camp like?
You stay in Serengeti Migration Camp’s luxury tents, which combine canvas with wooden floors, fixed wooden doors and fixed bathroom walls. Each has an ensuite bathroom with a flushing toilet, shower and twin vanity basin, hot (solar-generated) and cold running water 24 hours a day, soft furnishings, a writing desk with stationery and a room fan.
What baggage can I take on the flights?
Please bring soft-sided bags only. Baggage on internal flights is strictly limited to 15 kg per person, including hand luggage, and any excess is charged by the airline at check-in. All passengers must carry an ID card or passport for internal flights.
Will we see the great migration?
The herds move through the year following the rains, with about 1.5 million wildebeest in the ecosystem, so sightings depend on your dates. Our team can advise where the herds are likely to be when you travel, though wildlife sightings can’t be guaranteed on any given day. You can read more on the Serengeti National Park page.
What if the camp is full, or prices change?
We may need to re-route the itinerary or place you in a similar lodge if the camp isn’t available. Prices for domestic flights, airport taxes or park fees may change without prior notice, which is beyond our control, and any increase levied is passed on to you.
