Fly to Tanzania with Neos: safari, savanna and the Indian Ocean

Tanzania is one of those countries that combine multiple journeys into one: the savannas of the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater, the summit of Kilimanjaro, and then the Zanzibar archipelago with its white-sand beaches. Neos flights to Tanzania take you directly to this corner of East Africa, on the island that serves as the gateway to the sea and, from there, to the inland world of the great national parks. Flying to Tanzania with Neos means choosing an Italian airline that operates long-haul leisure routes with Boeing 787 aircraft. It is the choice for travelers who want to combine nature and ocean in a single itinerary, arriving without intermediate stopovers and with the practical aspects of the trip already taken care of.

Flying to Tanzania with Neos: what to know before you go

Tanzania offers two very distinct sides, and the way you plan your trip changes accordingly. Along the coast and throughout the archipelago, Zanzibar is the main reference for beach vacations: Neos flights land at Abeid Amani Karume Airport, close to Stone Town, from where you can reach the northern, eastern and southern beach areas of the island. For safari experiences, the mainland is accessible through domestic connections to the northern airports, near the Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Kilimanjaro circuits.
Many travelers build their itinerary by combining a few days on safari with a week by the sea in Zanzibar: it is a natural combination, made possible by the network of domestic flights departing directly from the island. The dry season, from July to October, is particularly suitable both for safaris, when wildlife gathers around water sources, and for enjoying the archipelago’s beaches during the summer season — a period that aligns well with Italian summer holidays.

Direct Neos flight to Tanzania: duration and advantages

On direct routes from Italy to Zanzibar, flight duration is approximately 9 hours. It is an evening flight that leads to a morning arrival, leaving the day available for a transfer to the coast or for onward domestic travel to the national parks. The advantage of a direct Neos flight to such a distant destination is significant: one boarding process, one baggage handling process, no waiting in foreign hubs. For travelers continuing to a safari with domestic flights and fixed schedules, arriving smoothly and well-rested can make a real difference.

Must-see in Tanzania

Tanzania is the land of nature on a grand scale. The Serengeti is the stage of the Great Migration, with millions of wildebeest and zebras moving across savannas and rivers; the Ngorongoro Crater contains a complete ecosystem within a single caldera, from lions to rhinos. Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest mountain, dominates the northern horizon and is a renowned high-altitude trekking destination. On the coastal side, Zanzibar offers Stone Town with its Swahili alleyways, spice tours and northern beaches that remain swimmable throughout the day. It is this contrast — savanna and ocean, adventure and relaxation — that makes Tanzania a destination that can hardly be fully experienced in a single trip.

Offers, included services and practical details for flying to Tanzania

For a trip that often combines multiple stages, fare flexibility is a valuable advantage: Promo for travelers with fixed dates, Relax and Freedom for those who want checked baggage included and greater flexibility for changes, particularly useful when coordinating safari and beach itineraries. On board the Boeing 787 fleet, Wi-Fi and personal entertainment help make the journey more enjoyable, while travelers carrying photography equipment or oversized baggage can check booking conditions for special luggage during the reservation process. Search, booking and travel management can all be completed on neosair.com. Then Tanzania takes over: the red horizon of the savanna at sunset and, just a few days later, the warm waters of Zanzibar.

Typical places

Tanzania boasts many specialities depending on the place: while the capital boasts a large market and seafood-based cuisine, the more inland areas preserve a culinary tradition based on meat, fruit and vegetables.
