After a very full day here, we’ll ascend back to the top where a special treat awaits… a spectacular sunset at the crater’s rim.

Day 02: Ngorongoro – Serengeti
3 Hour Drive
We’re headed to Tanzania’s oldest and largest reserve, the Serengeti. But along our route, we’ll stop at a very special place – the Olduvai Gorge. Immense troves of fossilized remnants from ancient man have been discovered here, including vast numbers of tools. These have provided an invaluable record of human development. It’s an eye-opening experience.
But the great Serengeti is next – it’s a great treeless plain, extending to the horizon, filled with wildebeest, gazelle, zebra, impalas, and exciting populations of lions, leopards, and cheetahs.
We’ll begin our game drives over the vast spaces here looking for wildlife, like the over 50,000 buffalo filling these wide-open grasslands.
We’ll relax and enjoy dinner at our Serengeti safari lodge or tented camp

This park is a wildlife haven, with a rich variety of animals including lions, zebras, hippos, crocodiles, and elephants. Here, you’ll also find Uganda’s famous tree-climbing lions.
Bird enthusiasts will be thrilled with over 611 species filling the skies, including the vibrant inhabitants of Kyambura Gorge—a paradise alive with chimpanzees and other primates.
Day 03: Full-Day at the Serengeti
Plenty of time today to get to know the Serengeti, with unlimited game drives and time for relaxation at your accommodation. The great park has been called one of the “Seven Natural Wonders of Africa” because of its wildlife by the millions and its brilliant display of over 500 colorful bird species.
We’ll take a lunch break to rest and refresh between game drives and then set out tracking for big and small game like honey badger, wild dog, monkey, and baboon.
We’ll also explore the park’s rivers and may even find some unexpected wildlife like hippos and crocodiles.
It will be a very full day. Come evening, we’ll retire to our Serengeti accommodation for dinner and relaxation.

Frequently Asked Questions About the 4 Day Tanzania Fly Drive Safari
Planning a safari often raises many questions, especially when choosing a package that balances comfort, adventure, and value. Our 4 Day Tanzania Fly Drive Safari is one of the most popular choices for travelers who want to experience Tanzania’s iconic parks without spending long hours on the road. To help you prepare for your trip, we’ve answered the most common questions about this safari package—from what’s included and destinations covered to customization options and booking details:
A 4 Day Tanzania Fly Drive Safari typically combines scenic road transfers with short internal flights to maximize your game-viewing time. Travelers can expect airport pick-ups, park entry fees, professional driver-guides, comfortable 4x4 safari vehicles, domestic flights between destinations, and full-board accommodation at carefully selected lodges or camps. Game drives in world-famous national parks are the highlight, offering close encounters with wildlife while ensuring convenience and comfort throughout your safari.
The cost of a 4 Day Tanzania Fly Drive Safari depends on several factors such as the season of travel, type of accommodation (luxury lodges, mid-range camps, or budget options), and group size. Since each traveler’s preferences are different, we recommend contacting us directly for a personalized quote tailored to your needs and travel style.
Several elements determine the final price of your safari, including the time of year (peak season vs. low season), choice of lodges or camps, park entry fees, and whether you opt for private or group tours. Internal flights included in the fly-drive option also affect pricing, but they provide significant time savings. To get the most accurate cost estimate, we encourage you to reach out to us with your preferred travel dates and requirements.
Most 4 Day Tanzania Fly Drive Safari itineraries cover a combination of Tanzania’s most iconic parks. These usually include Tarangire National Park, known for its elephants and baobab trees; Serengeti National Park, home to the Great Migration and abundant predators; and Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with one of the densest wildlife populations in Africa. Some itineraries may be customized depending on your preferences.
Yes, many 4 Day Tanzania Fly Drive Safari packages are designed to showcase the diversity of Tanzania by including Tarangire National Park and Serengeti National Park. Tarangire offers unique landscapes and massive elephant herds, while Serengeti provides endless plains filled with big cats and migratory herds. Including both parks gives travelers a well-rounded safari experience in a limited timeframe.
By mixing flights with scenic road drives, travelers save several hours of overland travel, especially between Serengeti and Arusha. A journey that would normally take 6–8 hours by road can be reduced to less than 1 hour by air. This balance ensures you spend more time spotting wildlife and less time in transit, making the 4 Day Tanzania Fly Drive Safari ideal for travelers who want both comfort and adventure.
A 4 Day Tanzania Fly Drive Safari stands out from a traditional road-only safari because it combines convenience with immersive experiences. While standard safaris rely solely on long road drives between parks, the fly-drive option reduces travel fatigue and allows you to explore multiple destinations efficiently. This makes it possible to see more wildlife and landscapes in the same number of days without feeling rushed.
Absolutely. The 4 Day Tanzania Fly Drive Safari can be customized to suit your travel style, whether you prefer luxury lodges, mid-range tented camps, or a budget-friendly option. You can also adjust the itinerary to focus on specific parks or experiences, such as extending your stay in the Serengeti or adding cultural tours with local communities. Simply contact us to discuss your preferences, and we’ll tailor the safari to your needs.
Accommodation options vary from luxury lodges with premium services to intimate tented camps that bring you closer to nature. Most itineraries include full-board stays, meaning meals are covered, and many lodges offer stunning views of wildlife right from your room. Whether you want the comfort of modern amenities or the authentic feel of sleeping under canvas, the choice is yours when booking the safari with us.
With carefully planned game drives across multiple parks, travelers can expect to see a wide variety of animals, including elephants, lions, giraffes, zebras, buffalo, hippos, and—depending on the season—the Great Migration herds in Serengeti. Ngorongoro Crater also provides opportunities to spot endangered species like the black rhino. The fly-drive option maximizes your wildlife encounters by cutting down travel time and dedicating more hours to game viewing.
Yes, the 4 Day Tanzania Fly Drive Safari is perfect for both families and first-time safari travelers. The balance of road drives and flights makes it less tiring, while the variety of parks ensures diverse wildlife experiences. Families with children will appreciate shorter travel times, while first-time safari-goers will enjoy a well-paced introduction to Tanzania’s wildlife and landscapes. Our team can also recommend family-friendly lodges to ensure comfort for all ages.
