1 Day Serengeti Fly in Fly out Safari from Arusha During Afcon 2027

Hotel Pickup and Morning Flight to Serengeti

Your Serengeti adventure begins early in the morning when our representative collects you from your hotel or another agreed location in Arusha. You will be transferred to Arusha Airport in time to complete the check-in procedures for your scheduled flight. After boarding a light aircraft, you will fly across the magnificent landscapes of northern Tanzania toward Serengeti National Park. Depending on the flight route and weather conditions, you may enjoy aerial views of farmland, the Great Rift Valley, the Ngorongoro Highlands and the vast plains surrounding the Serengeti. This fly-in arrangement is ideal for AFCON 2027 supporters who want to visit the Serengeti on a free day without spending many hours travelling by road.

Airstrip Arrival and Morning Serengeti Game Drive

Upon landing at the designated Serengeti airstrip, your professional driver-guide will welcome you and provide a short briefing before beginning the game drive. You will start exploring the park’s open savannah, acacia woodlands, seasonal water sources and rocky kopjes, which provide important habitats for many animals. Your guide will search for lions, elephants, giraffes, buffaloes, zebras, wildebeest, gazelles, hyenas and other wildlife while explaining their behaviour and natural environment. With some luck, you may also spot a leopard resting in a tree or a cheetah scanning the plains. Every game drive is different because sightings depend on the season, weather and natural movements of the animals.

Picnic Lunch and Afternoon Wildlife Exploration

Around midday, you will stop at a designated picnic location to enjoy your packed lunch surrounded by the landscapes of the Serengeti. After lunch, the game drive will continue through carefully selected areas based on recent wildlife sightings and the time of year. Your guide may explore river valleys, plains or kopjes in search of predators, large herbivore herds and colourful birdlife. During the appropriate season, you may encounter migrating wildebeest and zebras, although their location cannot be guaranteed because the Great Migration follows changing rainfall and grazing conditions. The afternoon exploration provides additional opportunities for wildlife photography before returning to the airstrip.

Afternoon Flight and Transfer Back to Arusha

After completing your game drive, your guide will take you to the Serengeti airstrip in time for your scheduled afternoon flight to Arusha. From the aircraft, enjoy a final aerial perspective of Tanzania’s wilderness as you leave the Serengeti plains behind. Upon arrival at Arusha Airport, our representative will meet you and transfer you to your hotel or another agreed location in the city. You will arrive with memorable photographs and safari experiences while retaining the following day for the excitement of AFCON 2027. Flight times and the airstrip used may vary according to the airline’s operating schedule and availability.
