Fly-in safaris are a popular choice in Tanzania. A well-established travel industry ensures that logistics run very smoothly. This includes a large network of flights to and between safari destinations, so that most parks and reserves are now accessible by air as well as by road. In the past, flying into Tanzanian parks and reserves tended to be extremely expensive as this was only possible with chartered flights. More recently, the concept of scheduled safari flights has opened up fly-in Tanzanian safaris to more people. Aside from the obvious time-saving logistical advantages of a fly-in safari over a road safari, you’ll have the bonus of an aerial view of the park before landing.

5 Questions About Tanzania Fly-in Safaris

Answered by

Ariadne van zandbergen.

What are the pros and cons of a driver-guide vs fly-in safari in Tanzania?

“There are two ways to travel in the country. You can either book a safari where a driver-guide travels with you for the duration of your trip. He or she will drive you from park to park and will usually conduct the game drives as well. In this case the guide will be a constant throughout your holiday. You might have to cover big distances between parks, which can be tiresome, but you’ll get to see a lot of rural Tanzania, away from the tourist hot spots. Alternatively, you can opt for a Tanzanian fly-in safari where you travel from park to park by light aircraft. This will save you a lot of time as it cuts out many additional kilometers spent in the car, often on bumpy roads. When you fly between parks, you’ll be met at the airstrip by your local guide who will look after you for the duration of your stay at that particular destination. So, you’ll have a different guide in each place. These guides work on-site and tend to be more knowledgeable than the general guides based in the cities. On a fly-in safari, your game drives will be conducted in the lodge’s open-sided vehicles. These spacious, open cars are superior to the pop-up-roof 4x4s used for road safaris. It is also possible to combine both types of safari. You could, for instance, book a road safari to Serengeti National Park or Nyerere National Park (formerly Selous Game Reserve) with a fly-in extension to a more-remote part of the country, e.g. to see chimpanzee in Mahale Mountains National Park.”

Is a fly-in safari much more expensive than a road safari?

“Flying from destination to destination is usually more expensive than a road safari in Tanzania. And while there are many advantages to a fly-in safari, many people booking a safari are budget-conscious. However, several local carriers now offer scheduled flights between parks. Furthermore, competition between different carriers flying to the popular parks has grown in recent years, bringing down the prices. Most importantly, there is usually no need for chartered flights. Since flying from park to park is essentially more time-productive, you can probably do a safari in fewer days compared to a similar road safari. Taking that into account, you might find a fly-in package doesn’t actually work out to be a lot more expensive than a road safari. Having said that, fly-in packages usually focus on the most exclusive and upmarket all-inclusive lodges, and these come at a premium price.”

What are the luggage restrictions on a fly-in trip in Tanzania?

“Safari flights are mostly on small light aircraft, and strict luggage restrictions apply, usually 15kg/33lb per person. As the planes are quite small, they also ask you to use a soft bag, such as a duffel bag, which is easier to store in a confined space. As you will be allowed more on your international flight, you can either pack with these small aircraft restrictions in mind, or you can leave some luggage with your tour operator or hotel at your city of entry. To accommodate the luggage restrictions, most lodges will do same-day laundry and many luxury lodges even include it in their package. Luggage restrictions on safari flights can be problematic for keen photographers with large lenses and lots of other equipment. If in doubt, always check with your tour operator in advance. In extreme cases you might need to book an extra seat.”

How reliable and safe are the small aircraft used for a fly-in safari in Tanzania?

“A fly-in safari and the light aircraft used in Tanzania are very safe. Tanzania has a well-established safari industry, and most of the local carriers have been operating for many years. Aside from having very strict safety regulations, they are generally very reliable too. Although several carriers offer scheduled flights to the popular parks and reserves, they do so in a flexible manner depending on bookings. The route will be scheduled, but stops at different airstrips are planned according to the bookings. That means that exact timings are usually announced the day before any given flight. The lodges are in direct contact with the airlines, and they inform their guests in ample time. They also organize transfers to and from the airstrips.”

Are some parks or reserves in Tanzania more suitable to this type of safari?

“Most parks and reserves can be visited on a road or fly-in safari. Both tour options are popular in the Northern circuit (Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti, Lake Manyara and Tarangire National Parks). As the Ngorongoro Conservation Area lies en route to the Serengeti, a great option is to drive one way and fly back. This saves time and avoids having to drive the same route twice. The Southern circuit (Mikumi, Nyerere and Ruaha National Parks) is a bit more remote. Many visitors opt to fly-in, although a road trip is the budget-friendly option, especially if only visiting one reserve. The Western circuit is almost exclusively visited on fly-in safaris. It includes Katavi, Mahale Mountains and Gombe National Parks. Katavi is a typical savannah reserve with lion, elephant and so on, while Mahale and Gombe both offer the more-specialized attraction of chimp trekking on the shores of Lake Tanganyika. Katavi and Mahale are usually visited together as they are connected by a convenient flight schedule. Katavi can theoretically be visited by road, but this is hardly ever done as it is so remote and difficult to reach. There are no access roads at all to Mahale and Gombe. Visitors usually come by flight, followed by a private boat transfer. The inaccessibility of the Western circuit makes it very exclusive. There is just a handful of small, mostly rustic lodges in these parks. Fly-in packages are expensive, but visitors get a special wild experience away from the crowds.”

Fly in safari Tanzania

Tanzanian fly-in safaris are unlike any other on the planet, with a record for outstanding game watching, the dreamlike Serengeti plains, luxurious lodges, magnificent beaches, Mount Kilimanjaro, and much more.

The Serengeti, of course, is famous for the spectacular movement with over 2 million mammals on a 300-mile circle after periodic rains across the Serengeti and Mara rivers near Masai Mara in Kenya.

Price of a tanzania fly in safari.

Fly-in excursions cost about $4,500 per person. For camping, visitors can expect to pay US$1,000 a person for a 7-day communal tour, and up to US$3,000 per individual for a mid-range personal tour.

The pricing of a safari in Tanzania is determined by a variety of variables. Joining a group camping excursion is the most cost-effective alternative. These can be a great deal of fun, but there is wonderful lodging available, and staying at safari lodges is also part of the experience.

There are resorts in various pricing ranges that provide various degrees of luxury and convenience. The most common type of accommodation is mid-range lodging at reasonable pricing.

Tanzania fly-in safari essentials and information

Must do on a tanzania fly in safari.

The Serengeti is indeed the highlight of any Tanzania fly in safari. The area is a World Heritage site and Biosphere Reserve, as well as the main tourist attraction in Tanzania .

It’s also one of the oldest and most scientifically significant ecosystems on the planet. Its weather patterns, fauna and flora are believed to have changed very little over a million years, giving the area a prehistoric feel.

The landscape of Serengeti NP is also extremely varied, ranging from savannah, to hilly woodlands, to open grasslands. If that’s not enough, you can also take in the equally stunning Ngorongoro Crater .

This incredible crater, a UNESCO world heritage site in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, is often referred to as ‘Africa’s garden of Eden’, due to the sheer volumes of animals and wildlife found there. It is also one of the best places to spot critically endangered animals like black rhinos, golden cats, wild hunting dogs.

Animals viewed on a Tanzania fly-in safari?

The terrain of Tanzania is just as appealing as the species, and it’s much more stunning from above, but don’t forget your binoculars, as there’s an astounding diversity of wildlife concealed in these arid plains.

A plethora of wildlife congregates around the waterholes, and game drives give several views of lions, wildebeest, giraffe, and zebra from among numerous plains animals. Meanwhile, the game reserves are home to large numbers of elephants, leopards and rhinos.

Also keep a look outside for springbok and oryx, as well as rarer wildlife like the aardwolf. Buffalo, eland, gazelles, impala, and waterbuck were also discovered. Visitors will undoubtedly enjoy viewing these majestic animals in their natural surroundings.

Factors to consider when booking a fly-in safari?

The first things to think about are your finances and the length of time you have allocated for your vacation. Fly-in safaris are ideal for time-pressed vacationers.

It’s also worth considering whether you would like to see more of a region than simply the specific places into which you’ll be traveling. Traveling from region to region provides a more in-depth understanding of a nation, its people, and history than soaring over it.

This is especially true in Tanzania, with its magnificent landscape, superb roads, and active local culture as you fly by. If you are prone to travel sickness or are a fearful flier, a fly-in safari may not be the best option for you.

Aircraft used on a Tanzania fly-in safari?

The Cessna 210, a highly engineered small airplane with a single engine, is the most preferred for charter flights. It has a great reputation and is a six-seater that can accommodate up to four individuals. Perfect for beautiful flights.

The Baron is a slightly bigger and faster aircraft that is similarly flown by a single pilot but it has two engines. It can accommodate up to five persons.

A Cessna 404 can carry up to eight people. It is the Cessna 210’s elder sibling, with twin engines and two pilots. Ideal for bigger parties that want to fly in the same plane. More room and comfort.

The Cessna Caravan is a superb aircraft that accommodates up to 12 people and one pilot. The ‘4×4’ of small planes, capable of operating from rough airstrips, has a high-winged single turbine aircraft that is great for picturesque aerial photography.

Luggage restrictions on a fly-in safari?

On bush flights, luggage capacity might be quite restricted. The Cessna 206, for example, has just a tiny space under the seats, and bags are frequently squeezed in to fit within. As a general rule, soft duffle bags are preferable over hard-framed suitcases with wheels.

Some providers set quite strict weight limitations and will count your hand bags and even coats in the total. Most employers allow roughly 15kg per person as a general rule. Don’t be startled if an airline inquires about your own weight.

This is frequently done in order to securely balance the smaller aircraft. If you have too much luggage, you may be able to pay for a cargo ticket on safari routes.

What is the average cost for a Tanzania fly-in safari?

The average cost for a Tanzanian fly-in safari is $2,500 – $4,000 per person for fly-in excursions whilst accommodation and activity add-ons can add to this price.

What are the advantages of a Tanzania fly-in safari?

The advantage of a Tanzania fly-in safari includes saving a lot of time by avoiding long, bumpy road journeys. You’ll also see another side of this incredible landscape and wildlife which you wouldn’t otherwise see from the ground and enjoy the thrills of descending over the vast savannah.

Are Tanzania fly-in safaris safe?

Tanzania fly-in safaris are indeed very safe with private charter aircraft well maintained and piloted by professionals with years of flying experience and safety training. Each aircraft typically carries up to 12 individuals whilst larger planes seat 35 – 50 passengers.

What Our Clients Say

Go2Africa was the perfect choice... We worked with Nicole from beginning to the end and she were so helpful in creating the perfect itinerary for us. From flights, to accommodations, to transfers, and tour guides, everything was perfect...Nicole was able to work within our budget and on all of our wants/needs.

Honeymoon of a lifetime!

This is our 3rd safari booked with Go2Africa and I'm always amazed at the personal attention to detail that goes into planning. We gave Jessica a general area we wanted to visit and a wildlife wish list of animals we wanted to see…It was unbelievable. Once again, Jessica did such an amazing job with selecting the camps that were perfect for us…

Knocked it out of the park again!

The family had an experience that exceeded our expectations. At each critical change point of the journey (flights, transport, accommodation) the arrangements played out perfectly. The experiences at each location were perfect and we took home so many memories and things to share. Thank you! Job well done.

The Great Wildebeest Migration (December to October)
Incredible year-round game viewing, especially predators
Tailor-made safaris for couples, honeymooners, families and adventure seekers
Adjacent private game reserves offer supreme exclusivity and unique activities like off-road game viewing and night drives – plus you have access to the national park for sensational game viewing.

Serengeti National Park

South Africa’s biggest and best-known national park is home to the country's greatest diversity of animals and exquisite safari lodges on private game reserves. As one of the oldest conservation areas in Africa, it boasts healthy populations of wildlife and highly sought-after sightings of cheetah and wild dog. But the Kruger’s pièce de résistance is the almost guaranteed encounter with the super-celebrities of the safari circuit: Africa’s iconic Big 5.

Dry Season:

The dry winter season is considered the best time to go to Kruger for game viewing. Vegetation is low and sparse, making animals easier to spot and follow, and wildlife will not move far from remaining water sources at this time of year. It’s a very comfortable time for a safari with few mosquitoes around, little if any rain, and pleasant temperatures.

High concentrations of wildlife
Off-road driving, spot-lit night drives and guided nature walks in private reserves
Luxurious lodges with spas, gyms, private pools and star-beds
5-star service and exquisite cuisine – some of the best safari food in Africa
Virtual guarantee to see all the Big 5

Green Season:

Nov–Apr

The summer’s afternoon thundershowers transform the Kruger into a beautiful, thriving green landscape that makes for superb photography. Game viewing is still good – with many young summer-born animals around it's a predator's paradise – and it's the best time to visit the Kruger for bird watching plus safari-and-beach holiday combinations.

Home to one of the world’s greatest concentrations of wildlife and the majority of the Wildebeest Migration, the Serengeti National Park is Tanzania’s flagship conservation area and a must-do for first-time and returning safari goers alike. The park’s astonishing density of wildlife offers a spectacular safari experience no matter what time of the year you visit, and the wide-open plains and mild climate mean that vegetation is never too dense to see animals.

Created about 3 million years ago when a massive volcano exploded and collapsed on itself, the Ngorongoro Crater is the largest intact volcanic caldera on Earth. It’s one of Africa’s most spectacular natural wonders, supporting over 25 000 animals – including the Big 5. A diverse ecosystem of savannah, lakes and forest, the crater is renowned for its geological splendour, out-of-this-world cliff-top accommodation, and delivering East Africa’s most reliable Big 5 game viewing.

Reliable sightings of the Big 5 (elephant, buffalo, rhino, lion and leopard)
Incredible year-round game viewing
Spectacular scenery
Luxurious cliff-top lodges and tranquil tented camps on the Crater’s rim
Ngorongoro Crater

Lake Manyara National Park

Although this national park is small by African standards, it boasts a tremendous diversity of habitats and animals – especially birds. Its namesake attracts a great array of aquatic birds while the evergreen forests are equally productive. It’s also one of the best places to spot scarce tree-climbing lions. Lake Manyara is a beautiful park and conveniently located along Tanzania famous northern safari route.

Phenomenal birdlife, especially flamingos
Scarce tree-climbing lions
Easy to access along Tanzania’s northern safari route
Habitat-rich: from the soda lake, grassy floodplains and forested escarpment

Tarangire National Park

Famous for its baobabs and massive elephant herds, Tarangire is the fourth and final park on Tanzania's renowned northern safari circuit. The northern part of Tarangire is dominated by the perennial Tarangire River, which attracts colossal herds of elephants during the dry season (June to October). The lesser-visited south is home to a series of vast swamps and wetlands that support a wide variety of wild animals.

Massive elephant herds
Strikingly beautiful baobab trees
Fewer visitors in the southern part, with a real sense of the wilderness
Great concentrations of predators (lion, leopard and hyena)

Consider Adding …

Another bucket-list destination and a must-add to any Serengeti safari, Kenya’s Masai Mara is a sanctuary for an abundance of animals like elephant, buffalo, zebra, giraffe, hyena and the Mara’s famous big cats: lion, leopard and cheetah. It’s also an important stopover for the Wildebeest Migration between about July and November.

Ruaha & Selous

Part of the lesser-known Southern Tanzania safari region, Ruaha and Selous are beautifully wild. Enormous in size and filled to the brim with wildlife, these areas offer sensational safari experiences with an intimate feel. Both are vast, undiscovered and untouched wilderness areas, that are little-visited by safari-goers.

No other wildlife encounter can rival sitting with endangered gorillas in their natural habitat and observing the fascinating family dynamics of our ancient relatives. The emerald rainforests of Rwanda and Uganda are incredible destinations for gorilla trekking, Africa’s most powerful wildlife experience.

Rwanda & Uganda

Green Season: Nov–Dec

The ‘short rains’ season relieve the dry mid-year winter. Clouds build up in the mornings and break in spectacular, but generally short-lived, showers in the late afternoons. Migrant birds return from the northern hemisphere and resident plains game give birth, which means the predator action is thrilling. Landscapes are green and lush, which makes for the perfect photography conditions.

Migration Season: Dec –Sept

The herds usually cross the Grumeti River in the western Serengeti between about May and July. They then move towards the Mara River in the north to cross into the Masai Mara between about July to October. November's short rains trigger the herds to move back to the Serengeti to give birth during the calving season from January to March – a period renowned for bitter-sweet predator action.

Dry Seasons: Jan–Mar & Jun–Oct

The weather is usually mild and dry from January to March, and most of the safari crowds are absent. June to October is safari’s high season, and Tanzania’s major parks like the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara are busy but weather conditions are fantastic. It’s a great time to climb Mount Kilimanjaro and if it’s a tropical beach getaway you’re after, head to Tanzania’s coast, Zanzibar or other Indian Ocean island retreats between June and March.

Migration, Big 5 & Zanzibar

Destinations:, the experience:.

This trip delivers a high-quality safari and beach experience without breaking the bank. Perfect for couples and first-timers, the itinerary features charter flights instead of long road transfers – meaning you have more time on safari. Start your adventure at a tranquil camp nestled in the forested rim valley of the Ngorongoro Crater, close to the access road that leads to the crater floor where you’ll see the Big 5 on game drives. Then head over to the Serengeti for three nights at a superb mobile camp that sets up in different locations in the path of the Wildebeest Migration to guarantee you front- row seats to the action.

Bush & Beach:

Secret tanzania:, ruaha, selous & serengeti.

This authentic 10-day safari itinerary takes you straight into three of Tanzania’s prettiest hidden gems. Kicking off in the Seronera, one of the most reliable game viewing areas in the Serengeti, where a well-timed trip will have you seeing cheetahs and the Great Wildebeest Migration. Next up is Ruaha National Park, one of Tanzania’s best-kept safari secrets. Here you’ll experience Africa at its wildest, seeing the continent's largest elephant herds and plenty of predator action, without sacrificing comfort and luxury. Selous is the final stop on the itinerary. Remote and wonderfully wild, the park is famous for its thriving animal populations and authentic safaris.

A diverse ecosystem of savannah, lakes and forest, the crater is renowned for its geological splendour, out-of-this-world cliff-top accommodation, and for delivering East Africa’s most reliable Big 5 game viewing.

Famous for its baobabs and massive elephant herds, Tarangire is the fourth and final park on Tanzania renowned northern safari circuit. The northern part of Tarangire is dominated by the perennial Tarangire River, which attracts colossal herds of elephants during Tanzania’s dry season (June to October). The lesser-visited south is home to a series of vast swamps and wetlands that support a wide variety of wild animals.

Dry Seasons:

Jan–Mar

Jun–Oct

Green Seasons:

Nov–Dec

Migration Season:

January–March & June–October

The weather is usually mild and dry from January to March, and most of the safari crowds are absent. June to October is safari’s high season; the Serengeti is busy, but weather conditions are perfect and the Wildebeest Migration’s dramatic river crossings take place. Although the sheer size of the Serengeti will give you a soul-stirring sense of space, the areas around the Migration’s river crossing points can get busy. If you want to be close to the action yet enjoy some serenity, we suggest staying in an adjacent private reserve.

November–December

The ‘short rains’ season relieves the dry mid-year winter. Clouds build up in the mornings and break in spectacular, but generally short-lived, showers in the late afternoons. Migrant birds return from the northern hemisphere and resident plains game give birth, which means the predator action is thrilling.

December–September

The herds usually cross the Grumeti River in the western Serengeti between about May and July, then move towards the Mara River in the north to cross into the Masai Mara between about July to October. November's short rains trigger the herds to move back to the Serengeti to give birth before calving season, which takes place from January to March and is renowned for bitter-sweet predator action.

Also Consider Kenya

Samburu National Reserve

Samburu is an arrestingly beautiful, rocky landscape that heralds Kenya’s vast northern deserts. It’s the traditional homeland of the Samburu people and a haven for the unique Special 5: Beisa oryx, reticulated giraffe, Grevy’s zebra, long-neck gerenuk and Somali ostrich.

Amboseli National Park

With its perennial wetlands flourishing beneath towering Mount Kilimanjaro, Amboseli National Park is the best place in East Africa to see massive herds of elephant. If you’re looking for that iconic postcard image of wildlife against a Kili backdrop, this is the place to get the shot.

The high plains of Laikipia are increasingly recognised as one of Kenya’s best safari regions. It’s home to some of the country’s most encouraging conservation success stories like Lewa Wildlife Conservancy, a sanctuary for black and white rhinos as well as Grevy’s zebra.

Kenya Beaches

Relaxing along Kenya’s dazzling tropical coastline is one of the best ways to crown your safari. From family-friendly resorts to exclusive beach villas, the country’s coastline offers excellent accommodation and superb diving and snorkelling spots.

Balloon Safaris in Tanzania

Tanzania hot air balloon safaris.

Hot air balloon safaris in Tanzania, offer a unique and enchanting perspective of the wildlife and landscapes. Tanzania, with its stunning landscapes, wildlife, and diverse geography, offers a unique and picturesque setting for hot air balloon rides. One of the most popular locations for hot air balloon safaris in Tanzania is the Serengeti National Park, renowned for its annual migration of wildebeest and other wildlife.

Hot air balloon rides in the Serengeti typically take place during the early morning hours when the wildlife is most active, and the scenery is breathtaking. Visitors have the opportunity to witness the sunrise over the vast plains and observe the wildlife from a completely different perspective.

The experience often includes a pre-dawn transfer to the launch site, where guests can watch the balloon inflation process. Once airborne, passengers can enjoy panoramic views of the Serengeti, with its diverse landscapes, wildlife, and the chance to spot animals like lions, elephants, giraffes, and more from the air.

Here are some interesting facts about hot air balloon safaris in the Serengeti:

10 Facts about Balloon Safaris in Tanzania

Balloon safaris provide a rare opportunity to witness the Great Wildebeest Migration from a breathtaking aerial perspective. The vast herds of wildebeest and other animals can be seen moving across the Serengeti plains.
The silent nature of hot air balloons allows for a non-intrusive experience. Animals are less disturbed by the gentle ascent and drift of the balloon, offering a chance to observe natural behaviors.
Hot air balloon safaris typically take place during the early morning hours, providing a serene and peaceful experience as you soar over the Serengeti at sunrise.
The open basket design of hot air balloons allows for unobstructed 360-degree views, offering panoramic vistas of the Serengeti’s diverse landscapes, from grassy plains to acacia-dotted savannas.
A traditional feature of many hot air balloon safaris is a champagne breakfast served upon landing. This luxurious touch adds to the overall experience, allowing you to celebrate your adventure in style.
Balloon pilots navigate the balloon by adjusting altitude to catch different wind currents. This allows for a somewhat unpredictable but exciting journey, providing a unique perspective with each flight.
Hot air balloons have minimal impact on the environment, as they do not disturb the wildlife or leave behind a footprint. This aligns with eco-friendly and sustainable tourism practices.
Balloon safaris usually have limited passenger capacity, ensuring a more intimate and personalized experience for participants.
The elevated position of a hot air balloon offers excellent opportunities for photography, allowing you to capture stunning shots of wildlife, landscapes, and the sunrise.
While hot air balloon safaris are a popular activity, the limited number of balloons in the sky at any given time ensures a relatively exclusive and serene experience.

When planning a hot air balloon safari in the Serengeti, it’s advisable to book in advance, considering the limited capacity and the popularity of this unique adventure.

Where in Northern Tanzania the balloon safari can be Done?

Hot air balloon safaris in Northern Tanzania are commonly offered in the Serengeti National Park and sometimes in other nearby areas. The Serengeti is particularly renowned for its stunning landscapes, diverse wildlife, and the opportunity to witness the Great Wildebeest Migration. Here are some key regions within Northern Tanzania where you can experience a hot air balloon safari:

The Serengeti is one of the most popular destinations for hot air balloon safaris. Balloon rides are often conducted over the Seronera Valley, offering incredible views of the plains and wildlife.
The central region of the Serengeti, known as the Seronera area, is a common starting point for hot air balloon safaris. This area is rich in wildlife and offers a picturesque landscape.
Depending on the season and wildlife movements, some operators may conduct balloon safaris in the western part of the Serengeti, providing a different perspective of the ecosystem.
During the calving season (December to March), when wildebeests give birth in the southern plains, hot air balloon safaris might also be available in the Ndutu region.
While not as common as in the Serengeti, some operators offer balloon safaris in Tarangire National Park. This park is known for its diverse landscapes and large elephant population.

When planning a hot air balloon safari, it’s essential to check with reputable tour operators and inquire about the availability of balloon rides during your visit. Keep in mind that the timing and locations of balloon safaris can be influenced by seasonal factors, so it’s advisable to plan accordingly. Booking in advance is recommended, especially during peak tourist seasons, to secure a spot for this unique and memorable experience.

What to expect from a Balloon Safari?

Pre-dawn Departure: Balloon safaris usually begin before sunrise to take advantage of the calm morning air. Guests are usually picked up from their accommodations and transferred to the launch site.
Balloon Ride: Once at the launch site, you’ll board the balloon, and as it ascends, you’ll enjoy panoramic views of the Serengeti plains, wildlife, and possibly even the Great Migration if you visit during the right season.
Wildlife Viewing: The Serengeti is home to a wide variety of wildlife, including lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, and more. From the vantage point of the balloon, you may witness animals in their natural habitat, exhibiting behaviors that are not always visible from the ground.
Landing and Celebration: After an exhilarating ride, the balloon descends for a gentle landing. Many balloon safari operators celebrate the experience with a traditional champagne toast in the bush. It’s a great opportunity to reflect on the adventure and enjoy the surrounding scenery.

Keep in mind that the availability and details of balloon safaris may vary depending on the date and season of the year, so early booking is recommended.

Travelling by Air in Tanzania – Quick Guide

Air travel in tanzania.

Getting around in Tanzania by air is safe and straight forward. There are several air carriers that connect major Tanzanian cities as well as safari airstrips and islands like Pemba, Mafia and Zanzibar. Regional aircrafts operate from terminal 1 Dar es Salaam Airport .

If you plan to visit Northern Circuit safari parks, then best airport to arrive is Kilimanjaro airport. While visiting southern Tanzania and Zanzibar only, best airport to arrive is Dar es Salaam or Zanzibar Airport.

Within Tanzania is possible to fly to other cities and towns as well as airstrips in National Parks, usually with small aircrafts.

The cheapest and latest air carrier is Fastjet , famous for low plane ticket prices and never disappointed us with delays or other inconvenience.

Prices vary, flights to smaller airstrips are more expensive and sometimes require at least two passengers for booking. Many air carriers do private charters on request.

Luggage allowance with small aircrafts is usually 15 kilos, (33 lbs) appreciated soft bags!

Tanganyika Air Company Routes in Tanzania

At the moment of writing Tanganyika flying company covers 13 destinations within Tanzania and abroad.

They are known as safari flight company. Tanganyika routes include flights to smaller airstrips within national parks in Tanzania and Dar es Salaam, Zanzibar, Arusha, Kilimanjaro and Nairobi. They also connect Mozambican island route.

Fast Jet Routes in Tanzania

Fastjet – low cost airline and synonym for cheap flights in tanzania.

Many of you will most definitely travel at some point with FastJet . Their website is by far most user friendly among all airlines in Tanzania. Their air travel routes in Tanzania connect cities like Dar es Salaam, Mbeya, Mwanza and Kilimanjaro.

However, be a little careful when planning flights with Fastjet between Mwanza and Kilimanjaro. This route seems not so popular and cancelations within less than 24 hours were the biggest annoyance some travellers experienced (including me).

Right now flights to Zanzibar and Arusha are not covered. But FastJet takes you for affordable price also out of Tanzania, latest, long waited route is between Dar es Salaam and Lilongwe. FastJet also flies to Entebbe (Uganda), Johannesburg (South Africa), Lusaka (Zambia) and Harrare in Zimbabwe.

Precision air has mixed online reputation. Some travelers like it, some hate it. We travelled several times with Precision Air and there were never major problems, except the airline has reputation for delays and incompetent customer support when problems arise.

Online booking with Precision Air is straight forward, they accept credit cards. However, for Zanzibar office we can confirm there are no credit cards accepted, only cash, which is at least to say unprofessional.

I would like to share experiences with airlines I have made in Tansania:

– Precision: Frequent delays on most flights. On our last flight they wanted to see the credit Card I used for the booking. I did not have that Card with me because it was expired. And they wanted us to bring(!) a photo copy of our passports. We had to leave the Airport to find a shop that would make These copies.

– Coastal Aviation: I can recommend this Airline. On all my flights always on time. Competent and friendly Service.

– FastJet: Very cheap. I have bought 1 ticket from them and I could not use that ticket. They rescheduled the flight to a new departure time that did not match my travel plans. They would not refund the ticket. I had no choice but buy another ticket with a different Airline. I have never actually flown with them. I do not think I ever will.

Please excuse the capitalization in this message. Internet Explorer is doing that.

Hi Paul, thanks for sharing your experience! You really had a little bit of bad luck with expired card but otherwise is in the terms of all airlines, if you book by credit card, you must show it at the check in if asked.This was the only reason i took credit cards with me. And am not surprised about Fast Jet, am wondering which route did you want to fly with them that was cancelled?
