Most safaris to Serengeti National Park start from the town of Arusha. Internationally you can fly into Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO), which is situated about 50km/31mi from Arusha.
From here you can travel by air or road to Wakati Camp. By road, you will likely stop off on the way at other national parks such as Tarangire, Manyara or Ngorongoro before entering the Serengeti, travelling with a driver-guide in a 4×4 vehicle. By air, you will fly by light aircraft into Seronera airstrip in the central Serengeti, which is a 45 minute drive from Wakati Camp. A guide, vehicle and cool drink of your choice will be waiting to greet you and game drive you back to camp.
