Full Day Serval Wildlife Sanctuary and Hot Springs Tour

About this experience

This tour offers a rare chance to enjoy close-up wildlife encounters in a responsible and fully guided setting. Unlike a traditional game drive where animals may be far away, Serval Wildlife Sanctuary allows you to safely stand just a few steps from giraffes, zebras, and antelopes — and even feed them under the supervision of trained sanctuary guides. You’ll also observe lions and other predators from designated viewing areas, learning about their behavior and conservation. With hotel pickup from Moshi, a scenic drive, and an included lunch box, this experience delivers unforgettable wildlife moments in only half a day, making it the perfect add-on to any Kilimanjaro climb or safari holiday.

Itinerary and highlights

Your experience begins with a pickup from your hotel in Moshi, followed by a scenic 1 hour and 30 minute drive to Serval Wildlife Sanctuary. Upon arrival, a trained sanctuary guide will welcome you and lead you through a fully supervised wildlife walk. You’ll learn about each animal, their behavior, and the sanctuary’s conservation efforts. Under the guide’s instructions, you’ll have the chance to safely feed friendly herbivores such as giraffes, zebras, and antelopes using sanctuary-provided food. You will also view lions and other predators from designated safe areas while your guide explains their habits and ensures a responsible, educational encounter. After your wildlife experience, you’ll enjoy your included lunch box before beginning the relaxing journey back to Moshi.
