Leave the City and Start Your Wilderness Weekend

07:00–11:00   Morning Flight and Lodge Arrival
Begin your break with a transfer to Dar es Salaam Airport and a flight into Nyerere. Meet your guide at the airstrip and continue to the lodge, keeping an eye out for wildlife along the way. Check in and put away your luggage so the weekend can begin at an easier pace.

11:00–15:30   Lunch and Time to Switch Off
