3 Days Safari to Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater from Zanzibar
is one of the best Safari Start from Zanzibar.
From the turquoise shores of Zanzibar to the endless golden plains of the Serengeti and the mighty caldera of Ngorongoro — this safari takes you straight into the heart of Tanzania’s legendary northern circuit.
Fly directly into the Serengeti, where your 4×4 Land Cruiser and personal safari guide await. Witness massive herds of wildebeests and zebras during the migration, track lions on the hunt, and marvel at the Serengeti’s raw, cinematic landscapes.
Then descend into the Ngorongoro Crater, a true wildlife haven where you might see all Big Five in one day — lion, elephant, rhino, leopard, and buffalo — all surrounded by towering crater walls.
Day 1: Fly Zanzibar to Serengeti – Full Day Game Drive
- 08:00 AM: Take off from Zanzibar Airport for your flight to Serengeti’s Seronera Airstrip (via Arusha or Manyara).
- 11:00 AM: Land in the Serengeti and meet your safari specialist guide with your safari-ready 4x4 vehicle waiting. A quick briefing and off you go into the wild.
- Midday to Afternoon: Full day game drive through the Serengeti's central region — known for the Great Migration and the predators that follow it. You'll likely see wildebeests, zebras, giraffes, lions, and cheetahs.
- Lunch: Enjoy a relaxed bush picnic at one of the Serengeti’s scenic viewpoints.
- Late Afternoon: Return to your lodge or camp by early evening to avoid the hottest part of the day.

Day 2: Sunrise Safari in Serengeti – Optional Walk or Evening Game Drive
- 06:00 AM: Depart camp early to catch the Serengeti at sunrise. This is predator hour — when lions return from the night hunt, and leopards and hyenas are still active.
- 08:00 AM: Stop in the bush for a picnic breakfast and coffee.
- Morning Drive: Explore more of Seronera Valley. Visit the Serengeti Visitor Center to learn about the park’s history and conservation efforts.

- Dinner and overnight at the same lodge or camp.

- Lunch: Scenic bush lunch by the hippo pool.
- 02:00 PM: Ascend out of the crater and drive to Arusha Airport.

3 Days Safari To Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater from Zanzibar FAQs
What is the best time of the year to take this trip?
All year is great, but June–October is dry and best for game viewing. January–March is perfect for the Serengeti calving season.
Will I see the Big Five?
Yes! Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater together offer one of the best chances to spot all Big Five.
