Life on Safari
Your safari begins with a scenic flight from Zanzibar to the heart of the Serengeti National Park, landing at Seronera Airstrip.
Upon arrival, you will be warmly welcomed by your professional safari guide and begin your first exciting game drive. A picnic lunch will be served in the bush before continuing your exploration of the vast Serengeti plains.
You will search for the famous big cats—lions, leopards, and cheetahs—as well as large herds of zebras, wildebeests, gazelles, and other wildlife. The Serengeti’s endless savannah, dotted with acacia trees, offers one of Africa’s most iconic safari landscapes.

"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."
