Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire

Two to three days via Arusha for the big names.

Fly to Arusha and visit the northern parks for two to three days, then return to the beach.

More fly-in safaris

A short scenic flight, then a game drive or boat safari.

Add a camp night for dawn game drives and walking safaris.

Closer, simpler options. Saadani is where the bush meets the beach.
