Why Choose a Fly In Safari?
A flight reduces the time spent traveling overland and helps you combine a wildlife safari with other parts of your Tanzania holiday.
Choosing the correct arrival airstrip matters. Nyerere has multiple airstrips, and your flight should match your accommodation and onward transfer arrangements. Scheduled or charter flights and lodge transfers should be coordinated before booking. Nyerere National Park

Suggested 3-Day Fly In Nyerere Safari Itinerary
Day 1: Fly to Nyerere and Begin Your Safari
Take your confirmed domestic flight to the airstrip selected for your accommodation. Meet your safari representative on arrival and begin your transfer.
Depending on your landing time and the lodge’s location, enjoy lunch followed by an afternoon wildlife activity. Your final itinerary will specify whether the first afternoon includes a game drive or boat safari.
Return to camp for dinner and your first night in the bush.
Day 2: Explore Nyerere on a Guided Game Drive
Spend the day exploring with your guide, following wildlife activity and suitable park routes.
Your day may include a picnic lunch during an extended drive or a return to camp between outings. Discuss your interests before departure, whether you prefer photography, birdwatching, or a relaxed introduction to safari.
Animal sightings depend on natural conditions and cannot be guaranteed.
Day 3: Final Activity and Return Flight
Enjoy breakfast and, if the flight schedule allows, a final activity before transferring to the airstrip.
Fly to your confirmed onward destination. Leave sufficient connection time if you are continuing on an international flight.
Prefer a longer stay? Request a four-day version with more time for wildlife viewing and relaxation.
