From Zanzibar: 3-Day Saadani Fly-In Safari with Game Drives

Fly from Zanzibar to Saadani National Park for a 3-day safari. Enjoy game drives, a river boat safari, and a Maasai village tour. Stay in a lodge and savor meals under the stars.
Start your day with a scenic flight from Zanzibar to Saadani Airstrip, where your guide welcomes you with refreshments. After checking into your lodge, the wild calls you for an afternoon game drive.

Traverse through savannahs, acacia woodlands, and coastal plains in search of lions, elephants, buffaloes, warthogs, giraffes, wildebeest, and rare sable antelopes. As the sun sets, the golden light paints the bush in warm colors, offering unforgettable photo moments. Dinner is served under the stars, surrounded by the sounds of the night.

Wake up to birdsong and a fresh coastal breeze before heading out for a morning game drive. The early hours bring the bush alive—predators returning from night hunts, antelopes grazing quietly, and elephants strolling near the wetlands.

In the afternoon, board a boat for a scenic safari along the Wami River. Glide past riverbanks lined with hippos, crocodiles, vibrant birds, and lush mangroves. It’s a peaceful yet thrilling way to witness Saadani’s unique ecosystem.

Later, visit a Maasai village for a cultural immersion. Learn about their traditions, dances, natural herbal practices, and their deep relationship with nature. It’s a warm and welcoming experience that gives you a meaningful connection to Tanzania’s people.

Enjoy breakfast with a final view of the wilderness before your flight back to Zanzibar. Leave with beautiful memories of the only place in Tanzania where the bush meets the beach.
