Program
Enjoy a rare opportunity to hand-feed and take pictures with lions, giraffes, serval cats, zebras, monkeys, elands, and more in a safe, ethical environment. Ideal for solo, couples, families, and friends.
From feeding majestic giraffes and interacting with lions (both petting and taking memorable photos in a controlled environment) to encountering friendly zebras, elands, colobus monkeys, serval cats, ostriches, impalas, dik-diks, bushbucks, and a variety of bird species, this experience perfectly blends excitement, nature, and conservation in a serene and scenic environment - perfect for families, couples, nature lovers, and wildlife enthusiasts.
The safari starts at 08:00 with pick-up from your hotel in Arusha or Moshi and ends around 16:00 with drop-off back at the hotel in Arusha / Moshi / Kilimanjaro International Airport. Your day begins with a comfortable transfer from your hotel in Arusha, Moshi, or directly from Kilimanjaro International Airport or Arusha Airport, depending on your travel schedule.
The scenic two- to two-and-a-half-hour drive to the sanctuary takes you through charming countryside landscapes, building anticipation for the adventure ahead. Upon arrival, the friendly team at Serval Wildlife will welcome you warmly and share their inspiring mission - rescuing, rehabilitating, and preserving endangered species.
You will gain insight into ongoing conservation efforts and learn about the animals you are about to meet, setting the stage for meaningful encounters. One of the richest moments of the day is interacting with the animals themselves - feeding giraffes, getting close to zebras, and even taking photos with lions in a controlled and safe environment. These interactions are handled with utmost care and respect for animal welfare, creating powerful memories you will carry long after you leave. You will also explore the sanctuary on foot during a guided nature walk, spotting unique flora, watching birds, and observing smaller wildlife that often go unnoticed.
These quieter moments offer reflection and connection with nature’s subtleties. After these immersive highlights, enjoy a relaxing lunch stop at a local restaurant before returning to Arusha or Moshi. You can also be dropped off directly at Kilimanjaro International Airport or Arusha Airport, feeling enriched by the day’s experiences and the beauty of the Tanzanian wild.
