6 Days Serengeti Migration Safari from Zanzibar

This 6-day Serengeti Great Migration Safari from Zanzibar is designed for travelers who want to witness one of the world’s greatest wildlife spectacles — the Great Wildebeest Migration — while starting directly from Zanzibar. You will fly from Zanzibar to Serengeti to maximize time in the park, explore central and northern Serengeti depending on migration season, and finish with Ngorongoro Crater before returning to Arusha (optional flight back to Zanzibar). This safari focuses on extended Serengeti game viewing to increase chances of river crossings (July–October) or calving season (January–March).
