Flying into Mwanza Airport (MWZ) and want to head straight into the wild? With Olaitoriani Expeditions, you can begin your safari from Mwanza Airport and enjoy quick access to the legendary Serengeti National Park. Mwanza is located on the southern shores of Lake Victoria, making it one of the best starting points for safaris into Western and Northern Serengeti.
Unlike Arusha or Dar-es-Salaam, Mwanza is just a short drive to Serengeti’s western entrance. This makes it a convenient choice for travelers who:
Want shorter transfers to the Serengeti.
Are already visiting Lake Victoria and want to add a safari.
Prefer to avoid busy northern circuit routes.
Western Serengeti – famous for wildebeest river crossings at the Grumeti.
Northern Serengeti (Kogatende & Mara) – spectacular Mara River crossings (July–October).
Central Serengeti (Seronera) – year-round game viewing with lions, leopards, and cheetahs.
Ngorongoro Crater – accessible via Serengeti, for Big Five encounters in a dramatic volcanic caldera.
Airport Pickup & Drop-off – private transfer from Mwanza Airport to your safari vehicle.
Private 4×4 Safari Vehicles – open-roof Land Cruisers for wildlife photography.
Expert Safari Guides – local professionals with deep knowledge of Serengeti routes.
Custom Itineraries – from 2-day Serengeti safaris to extended northern circuit tours.
