4 Days / 3 NightsFrom 2 passengers

Overview

For those with limited time but unlimited appetite for Africa, the Serengeti Express delivers the northern circuit's headline act in four focused days. You fly directly into the Serengeti from Kilimanjaro, skipping the long road transfers, and spend every available hour inside the park. Three consecutive game drives in the Seronera Valley — Africa's most productive year-round wildlife corridor. On the final morning, a last sunrise drive before your flight connects you onward to Zanzibar.
