Discover the Serengeti on a 4-day fly-in, fly-out safari designed for comfort and adventure. Scenic flights carry you above the landscapes of northern Tanzania and straight into the heart of the park, so you skip the long road transfers and spend more of each day among the wildlife. Your game drives take place in an open-sided 4×4 safari vehicle, offering wide views and thrilling close encounters as you search for the Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino) and the many other animals that roam the plains. Between drives you relax in carefully selected lodges or tented camps, where comfortable beds, good food, and the sounds of the bush make each evening a pleasure. With efficient travel and plenty of time on the savannah, this short safari delivers the best of Tanzania’s world-famous wildlife paradise.

"Our guide Emmanuel was incredible — he spotted a leopard and two lion cubs that three other vehicles completely missed. The most magical experience of our lives."
"The private setup meant we could spend 45 minutes with a cheetah and cubs without feeling rushed. The lodges were far beyond what we expected."
"As first-time safari travelers, we were nervous. From the moment we arrived, Serengeti African Tours took care of everything. The Ngorongoro Crater literally took our breath away."
"Booked through SafariBookings and couldn't be happier. Every detail was handled perfectly. Guide Abouh is extraordinary — his knowledge of wildlife is encyclopaedic."
