How to Get There
By Air
Flying is the most convenient option for travellers who want to maximise their time in the Serengeti.
Guests can fly from Arusha Airport or other safari destinations to Seronera Airstrip, followed by a transfer by safari vehicle to the lodge.
The flight from Arusha to the Serengeti generally takes around 1–1.5 hours, depending on the routing and scheduled stops.
Guests arriving by air can often begin wildlife viewing almost immediately, as the transfer to the lodge becomes part of the safari experience.
By Road
Serengeti Serena Safari Lodge can also be incorporated into a classic Northern Tanzania road safari.
A typical itinerary is:
Arusha → Tarangire → Lake Manyara → Ngorongoro → Serengeti Serena
The journey from the Ngorongoro area into the Serengeti is particularly scenic and offers opportunities for wildlife viewing along the way.
Approximate driving times vary considerably depending on the route, road conditions and game-viewing stops.
