Important Questions About 3-Day Tanzania Safaris From Zanzibar

1: What are the best Parks to visit in 3 Day Safari from Zanzibar

​For a quick safari fix from Zanzibar, Nyerere National Park and Mikumi National Park in southern Tanzania are top choices. These parks offer some of the best wildlife viewing in East Africa.

You can fly directly to these parks or fly to Dar es Salaam and drive to Saadani National Park. Consider a fly-in safari to northern Tanzania's renowned parks like Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara, or Tarangire for a more ambitious and wildlife-viewing safari.

2: Is the south or north of Tanzania better for a 3-day safari from Zanzibar?

Southern Tanzania is generally the better choice for a 3-day safari. Parks like Nyerere and Mikumi are closer to Zanzibar, minimising travel time and maximising safari time. Saadani National Park is also a good option due to its proximity.

While northern parks offer incredible wildlife, reaching them in three days involves more logistical challenges and less time for actual game viewing.

3: Are three days enough for a safari from Zanzibar?

Yes, three days is a good starting point for a safari from Zanzibar. This allows for two full days of game drives, which is sufficient to experience the diverse wildlife. Early morning and late afternoon game drives offer the best chances of spotting animals

4: Are all 3-day safaris from Zanzibar fly-in safaris?

Yes, most 3-day safaris from Zanzibar are fly-in safaris. This is because the main safari parks in Tanzania are located on the mainland, so a flight from Zanzibar is required to reach them.  

While there are some options for driving to the mainland, these are generally longer and less common for shorter 3-day trips. Flying allows you to maximise your time in the parks and see more wildlife

5: How much does a 3-day safari from Zanzibar cost?

The cost of a 3-day safari from Zanzibar varies depending on several factors, including:

  • Accommodation: Luxury lodges and tented camps are more expensive than budget accommodations like campsites.  

  • Park Fees: Different parks have different fees, and some parks are more expensive than others.  

  • Transportation: Flight costs, vehicle rental, and fuel costs can vary.

  • Meals: The number of meals included in the package and the quality of the food can affect the price.

  • Activities: Additional activities, like hot air balloon safaris or night game drives, can increase the cost.

Generally, you can expect to pay from $200 to $1000 per person per day for a 3-day safari from Zanzibar.

What other clients say 3 Day safari from Zanzibar

Davids M 

3-day Tanzania Safari from Zanzibar.
My safari was excellently arranged. Accommodations, meals, and transport were arranged immeasurably. The Guide was amazingly knowledgeable. Smart and timely working. The company staff's hospitality is wow...
The safari started in Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and lastly, Lake Manyara National Park. I saw everything I expected and even more. I think Watermark Safari is recommendable

Simon Novart

It was the best moment ever in Tanzania.
I have been travelling around the world for about two years now. What I can say simply is that Tanzania is wonderful, and Watermak Safari is marvellous.
I can't forget this 3 day Safari in Serengeti and Ngorongoro. This company is smart in organising Safari. It was easy to witness big five in Serengeti . I met Evans the guide. This man is a professional guide I have ever met in Wild Safari in such a way that I can't tell it all. I will be back to Tanzania with Watermak Safari Tanzania. I recommend this company any one

Leah Maxiwell

It was a 3-day fly-in safari from Zanzibar. It was arranged as a fly-in because my time was very limited, so I chose 3 3-day Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater with my wife. The safari was so exciting because we managed to see all Big Five, the Serengeti River crossing and the amazing Ngorongoro Caldera.

Sam was a wonderful guide, very knowledgeable about wildlife. I plan to come again to Tanzania. I recommend Watrmark Safari
