Scenic Air Transfer from Dar es Salaam to the Central Serengeti Park

Your journey begins early at 5:00 am (pick-up time varies by hotel). Our driver will transfer you to the airport for a 7:00 am flight to the Central Serengeti (Seronera Airstrip). Upon arrival at 10:40 am, you’ll meet your professional safari guide and start your thrilling game drive in the heart of Tanzania’s most iconic park.

The Serengeti National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is world-famous for its endless plains and the Great Migration, where millions of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles traverse the savannah, pursued by predators and facing dramatic river crossings. The Central Serengeti is rich with wildlife year-round, home to over 3,000 lions, 1,000 leopards, and countless elephants, buffaloes, and giraffes.

Enjoy a 6-hour game drive, with a packed lunch at a scenic picnic site. After an incredible day of exploration, you’ll arrive at your lodge by 5:00 pm and savor a relaxing dinner between 7:00–9:30 pm, surrounded by the tranquil sounds of the Serengeti.
