Ndutu Migration Safari

Safari summary

On an unforgettable 6-day safari with Kizza Adventures, exploring Tanzania’s premier wildlife destinations: Ndutu, Central Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. This tour, perfect from late December to March, starts and ends in Arusha, providing a comprehensive safari experience.

Day One; begins with a morning pickup from your hotel in Arusha. You’ll enjoy a scenic drive of approximately 5.5 hours to Ndutu, a region that spans the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Conservation Area. This journey showcases Tanzania’s stunning landscapes, transitioning from lush highlands to open grasslands. Upon arrival, you'll embark on a half-day game drive, witnessing the migration's first scenes in the fertile plains, where wildebeests, zebras, and gazelles congregate. The game drive ends with dinner and rest at your lodge.

Day two; is dedicated to a full day of exploration in Ndutu. During this period, you’ll witness the spectacle of the Great Migration, where massive herds of wildebeests and zebras traverse the plains, providing dramatic scenes of survival and predation. This area is known for its high predator density, and during the right season, you may observe lions, cheetahs, and hyenas hunting for young wildebeests. The day concludes with another evening game drive and relaxation at your lodge.

On Day three; you will head to the Central Serengeti, a highlight of Tanzania’s wildlife experience. This vast savannah is renowned for its breathtaking scenery and is home to the Big Five—lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant, and rhino—as well as a myriad of other species. The Serengeti’s expansive grasslands provide excellent opportunities for spotting wildlife and are famous for their picturesque landscapes, including the iconic Serengeti Kopjes, which are large rock formations that serve as wildlife viewing points and habitats.

Day Four; offers a full day in the Serengeti, with an option for a hot air balloon ride. This exhilarating experience provides a unique aerial perspective of the migration and the Serengeti’s sweeping landscapes. Afterward, continue your game drives, immersing yourself in the rich wildlife and diverse habitats of this UNESCO World Heritage Site.

On the final day, you’ll travel to the Ngorongoro Crater, one of Africa’s most impressive natural wonders. After breakfast, descend into the crater for a 5-hour game drive. The Ngorongoro Crater is a massive volcanic caldera, providing a unique environment for wildlife. Here, you can see a dense concentration of animals, including black rhinos, elephants, and hippos. Following a picnic lunch at the hippo pool, you will begin the drive back to Arusha, concluding your safari adventure with a return to your hotel by the evening.

This tour offers a rich blend of Tanzania’s most celebrated wildlife experiences, from the dramatic migration scenes in Ndutu to the expansive plains of the Serengeti and the impressive Ngorongoro Crater, making it a comprehensive and memorable safari journey.
