included?","answer":"Flights to and from your destination aren\u2019t included in the trip price \u2014 you\u2019ll need to book these independently. Any flights needed during the tour itself are included and taken care of by us. You\u2019ll find recommended arrival and departure airports, along with suggested arrival and departure times, in the FAQs below.\n"},{"question":"Which airport do I need to fly in and out of? Plus airport code","answer":"Fly into Julius Nyerere International Airport (DAR) in Dar es Salaam and out of Abeid Amani Karume (Zanzibar) International Airport (ZNZ).\n"},{"question":"What time should my flight arrive (in time for the welcome meeting)?","answer":"Before 3pm ideally. The welcome meeting and dinner will be from 6pm at the hotel, which is 25-30 minutes away from Julius Nyerere International Airport (DAR) in Dar Es Salaam.\n"},{"question":"What time should my flight depart on the last day?","answer":"Check-out time is 10am but we recommend booking your return flight from 12pm onwards, to allow plenty of time for travel and check-in. The hotel is around 1 hour and 30 minutes away (65km) from the airport, and you\u2019ll need to arrive three hours before your flight. If you\u2019re happy with an early start, earlier departures are possible \u2013 just be prepared for a pre-dawn wake-up call. Your Pack Leader or hotel staff can help you book your transfers the night before if needed.\n"},{"question":"Do you include airport transfers? ","answer":"If you arrive on Day 1 of your adventure, or you\u2019ve booked yourself a pre-night at the same hotel the adventure starts from, your airport arrival transfer will be included. Arrival transfers are private to Flash Pack and in groups depending on flight times, so you may have to wait in the airport for a short while.\nHowever, if you\u2019ve booked alternative pre-trip accommodation or are arriving by another mode of transport, you\u2019ll have to arrange your own arrival transfer.\u00a0\nPlease also note: in order to secure your place on the private transfer, you\u2019ll need to provide your flight details to our Customer Experience team no later than 30 days prior to your adventure\u2019s departure date. You\u2019ll get automated email reminders about this, but the team won\u2019t be chasing you. That\u2019s why it\u2019s key to get this information over in good time. If the details are provided later than 30 days pre-departure, you\u2019ll have to arrange your own arrival transfer.\nDeparture transfers are typically not included due to travelers leaving at varying times. That said, your Pack Leader will happily help arrange departure transfers for you if required.\n"},{"question":"Are tips included? ","answer":"Please note that tips are not included in the cost of this adventure. Your Pack Leader will collect a tipping kitty on arrival at Little Bush Rover camp and this will be distributed equally among the staff.\nHowever, all tips are at your discretion depending on what you feel comfortable with.\n"},{"question":"Why have you split this itinerary into two seasons?","answer":"From June to mid-July, the Bush Rover Migration Camp is located on the fabulous Grumeti river where the migration is expected to be at this time of year. The aim of the camp is to be right in the heart of the great migration.\nDuring mid-July, the Bush Rover Suites move from the west to the north of Serengeti with a stunning site with a view of the great Mara river that many would envy. Why is this so important? At this time of year, the herds move to this area in the far north to graze on the new grasses in this area. To see an actual crossing of the Mara river by thousands of wildebeest is the holy grail of wildlife viewing.\nAfter the November rains when the fresh grasses grow in the southeast of Serengeti, the wildebeest continue to move from north to south. The Bush Rover Suites are in situ, having arrived at their final annual destination in the area of Kusini. The camp will remain here, with the wildebeest, until mid-March.\n"},{"question":"Why is December to March such a good time to visit?","answer":"January to March sees the arrival of the wildebeest calving season, a time during which around 500,000 wildebeest are born. As you can imagine, these vulnerable creatures attract a huge amount of predators \u2013 think lions, cheetahs and hyenas \u2013 so excellent wildlife viewing is guaranteed. What\u2019s more, the lack of tourists, the lush green landscapes from the short rains and the warm temperatures make this time of year simply stunning in Tanzania.\n"},{"question":"Is there anything else I should know about the camp set up or locations?","answer":"The Bush Rover Kusini camp (December to March) is in much more of a rugged, off-grid location to its northern twin. 35km from the nearest road, you\u2019ll need to expect a bumpy ride as you traverse along untouched tracks to reach camp.\nIt\u2019s also worth noting that, although extremely rare, bad weather can affect both camps. The beauty of this experience is that you\u2019re far from the beaten path, with a front-row ticket to wildlife minus the crowds. This does, however, mean you\u2019re far from shelter should any dramatic weather occur, so amendments to the itinerary may have to be made in advance if the forecast demands it.\nNow, while you\u2019re definitely out in the wilderness on these adventures, you\u2019ll never be too far from certain amenities. For example, the Serengeti now has its own hospital for minor injuries \u2013 built specifically for visitors to the area.\n"},{"question":"Do I need a visa?","answer":"Up-to-date visa and entry information can be found using our official partner, Sherpa, who can help you arrange a visa if needed.\nYou can also find essential travel advice \u2013 including security and local laws, as well as passport and visa information \u2013 on the government website of your home country:\n\nUK residents: review the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) Travel Advice before your adventure.\nUS residents: consult the US Department of State Travel Advice for important travel information.\nAustralian residents: check the Smart Traveler website for up-to-date travel advice.\nResidents of other countries: refer to the travel advice provided by your own government or local consulate.\n\nPlease be aware that passport and visa requirements can change before departure, so it\u2019s important to stay updated with the latest information.\n"},{"question":"Do I need additional insurance?","answer":"As of 1st October 2024, the Zanzibar government has introduced a mandatory insurance policy for all visitors. Here are the need-to-knows:\n\u2022 The insurance costs $44 per person and must be purchased through the Zanzibar Insurance Corporation in advance of travel here.\n\u2022 This insurance is only valid while in Zanzibar and does not cover other parts of the trip, such as mainland Tanzania.\n\u2022 You must still have comprehensive travel insurance for the rest of your journey.\n\u2022 Entry to Zanzibar may be denied without proof of purchasing this specific insurance.\n"},{"question":"What vaccinations and medication will I need? ","answer":"While we are not medical professionals and cannot offer personalized medical advice, we want to ensure you have a safe and enjoyable adventure. Here are some tips to help you prepare.\n1. Consult with a healthcare professional\nWe recommend scheduling an appointment with your travel nurse or doctor at least eight weeks before your adventure. This will give you ample time to receive any necessary vaccines or medications.\n2. Up-to-date medical advice\n\nUK residents: visit the NHS Fit For Travel website for the latest medical advice.\nUS residents: check the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website for specialized health information.\nAustralian residents: refer to the Smart Traveler Health website for current medical advice.\n\n3. Government travel advice\n\nUK residents: review the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) Travel Advice before your adventure.\nUS residents: consult the US Department of State Travel Advice for important travel information.\nAustralian residents: check the Smart Traveler website for up-to-date travel advice.\n\n4. Medication tips\nIf you take prescription medication, ensure you bring enough to last the entire adventure, plus a few extra days in case of travel delays.\u00a0Carry a copy of your prescription with you in case you need to visit a clinic while abroad.\nWe hope this information will help you prepare for a safe and healthy adventure.\n"},{"question":"How much should I budget per day for extras?","answer":"Most of your meals are included but we suggest budgeting around 95,000 TZS, the equivalent of 35-40 USD per day for extras.\n\u00a0\n"},{"question":"What's the luggage limit for domestic flights on this itinerary?","answer":"The luggage limit for the domestic flight from Dar es Salaam to Mwanza on Day 2 is 23kg for hold luggage and 7kg for carry-on.\nThe luggage limit for the domestic flight from Seronera to Zanzibar on Day 7 is 15kg for hold luggage and 5kg for carry-on. If your luggage exceeds this, you can pay 5 USD per additional kilogram at the airport.\n"},{"question":"Will the itinerary change? ","answer":"Please be aware that the itinerary, activities and hotels are subject to change. These changes can happen with little notice due to availability, poor weather, seasonal changes, or other circumstances beyond our control \u2013 but we\u2019ll always do our best to ensure it has little impact on your experience. From time to time, we may also make changes to your itinerary to try out new ideas and keep things fresh and exciting.\nThe order of some of the activities may change. Please check with one of our Travel Experts about the specific departure you are interested in.\n"},{"question":"Can I request a single room on this adventure?","answer":"Single supplements aren\u2019t available at the time of booking on this adventure due to the limited number of Land Rovers at the Bush Rover Migration Camp in Serengeti National Park.\nHowever, closer to departure \u2013 around 10 days before your adventure \u2013 you may have the option to bid in a blind auction to upgrade to a single room if there\u2019s an odd number of female or male Flashpackers in your group. Full details will be shared in the WhatsApp group, along with the minimum starting bid.\nIf no one opts for this and we don\u2019t receive any last-minute bookings, one Flashpacker will be placed in a twin room alone, based on the best overall group compatibility.\n"},{"question":"Will I have the same Pack Leader for the whole trip?","answer":"During this adventure, you will have two dedicated Pack Leaders. The first will guide you on the Tanzanian mainland (Days 1-7), and the second will join you in Zanzibar (Days 7-9). Your mainland Pack Leader will assist until you board your flight at Seronera Airstrip, and your Zanzibar Pack Leader will meet you upon arrival in Zanzibar.\n"}],"hotels":[{"name":"Bush Rover Migration Camp, Serengeti National Park","short_description":"Immerse safari experience with spectacular views","description":"The award-winning Bush Rover Migration Camp is set in a series of converted Land Rovers, for world-class game viewing away from all the crowds.
