Is it for you?
Who it suits
Leave the beach after breakfast and be on a game drive by lunch. Our fly-ins from Zanzibar go to the Serengeti, the Ngorongoro area or, for a shorter trip, Mikumi in the south.
Why fly
Zanzibar to the Serengeti by road and ferry would take two days. By air it is a morning.
Private
Your guide and Land Cruiser meet you at the airstrip.
Luggage
About 15 kg in soft bags on bush planes: leave the rest at your hotel.

Several of these fly back to Zanzibar; others end at Arusha airport. Each itinerary says which.
