Getting to Tanzania and Kenya is straightforward, with good connections via the Gulf, Europe and regional hubs. Here are the airports and the internal flights that knit a safari together.
Main airports
International routes
Common one-stop connections run via Doha, Dubai, Addis Ababa, Amsterdam and Istanbul. For the northern circuit and Kilimanjaro, fly into JRO; for Kenya, fly into NBO.
Internal & bush flights
Light-aircraft flights connect Arusha, the Serengeti airstrips, Zanzibar and the southern parks — turning long drives into short hops and maximising time on safari. We build these into your itinerary and handle the bookings and luggage limits (typically ~15 kg soft bag).
✓ Drive or fly?
On the northern circuit, driving is scenic and cost-effective and lets you game-view en route. For the far Serengeti, southern parks or a Zanzibar finish, flying saves a day or more.
