Every package below is a live tour page. Each card names the lodge for every night, says whether flights are in the price, and divides the price by the days so you can compare a 3-day fly-in with an 11-day safari and beach. Every other level and trip length is on our Tanzania safari planning page.
Both buttons do the typing. Plan a luxury safari opens a one-minute form on this page; WhatsApp opens with your request written out, including anything you choose in the form. Starting prices per person, two travellers sharing, on our tour pages, read 29 October 2026; per day is the price divided by the tour's days, rounded. Groups of 3 to 6 often pay less each (price by group size).

Solo travellers: price on request on every package. "Ask us" means the tour page shows no lower price for that group size; we quote it. Children's prices are quoted on request.

The other 7 packages drive the whole way. For a sense of the fares we quote: Coastal Aviation's standard fare from Zanzibar to Seronera was $395 one way, and Seronera to Zanzibar from $398, on its November 2026 calendar, read 20 October 2026. Coastal allows 15 kg in total per person, hand luggage included, so pack soft bags. The full flight picture is on our Zanzibar to Serengeti fly-in safari page.

Common questions
On our tour pages, read 29 October 2026: 3 days from $1,930, 7 days from $4,290, 8 days from $3,658, 10 days from $6,056 per person, two sharing. Per day, the packages on this page run from $457 to $978. Flights, group size and dates move the final price.
For Serengeti nights our luxury packages name Serengeti Explorer by Elewana, Serengeti Serena Safari Lodge, Escarpment Luxury Camp Serengeti, Kubu Kubu Tented Lodge, Nyota Luxury Camp, Signature Serengeti Luxury Tented Safari Camp, Mara Mara Tented Lodge, Enkutoto Migration Camp and Olkarien Eco Safari Camp. The lodge table shows which packages use each one.
Yes. Every package on this page is private: your group, your vehicle (a pop-up roof 4x4) and your driver-guide. Most of our mid-range tours are private too (100 of 104), so privacy is not what the luxury price buys. The lodges are.
On 5 of the 15 packages here, which list "All flights during the tour": three fly-ins from Zanzibar, the 8-day fly-in Serengeti safari and the 10-day honeymoon safari with Zanzibar. Two more have fly in the title but not in the inclusions list, so we quote those flights separately. The rest drive between parks.
The parks, the animals and the crater rules are the same. What changes is the room, the meals and drinks the lodge serves, where the lodge sits, and whether you fly the long legs. Our tours are private at both levels.
For comfort, privacy at the lodge, a special occasion or less time on the road, often yes. For seeing more animals, no: you see the same wildlife at every tier. Our budget vs luxury Tanzania safari guide sets out what changes.
Yes. The 10-Day Luxury Honeymoon Safari & Zanzibar ($6,056) ends with three nights at Royal Zanzibar Beach Resort, and the 11-Day Luxury Tanzania Safari & Zanzibar Retreat ($7,699) with four at Melia Zanzibar Hotel. More combinations are on our safari and Zanzibar page.
