Itinerary

Arusha– Ndutu (Southern Serengeti)

Serengeti

Your adventure begins with a scenic flight or private transfer from Arusha to the vast open plains of Ndutu, located in the southern Serengeti ecosystem. Upon arrival, meet your professional safari guide and begin game drives across the short-grass plains, where herds of wildebeest and zebras gather during the calving season (Jan–Mar). This area is also a hotspot for big cats, especially lions and cheetahs.

Ndutu–Central Serengeti–Grumeti

Serengeti

After breakfast, depart on a full-day game drive, following the migratory path northward toward the Western Corridor. Travel through the Seronera Valley, famous for its resident lions and leopards. Break for a picnic lunch end route as you witness herds moving through diverse habitats. By late afternoon, arrive in the Grumeti region, known for its lush riverine forests, towering palms, and the Grumeti River, home to massive crocodiles and bathing hippos.

Grumeti – Return to Arusha

Serengeti

Begin the day with a sunrise game drive along the Grumeti River, where you might spot elephants, giraffes, and predators lying in wait near the water’s edge. This is one of the best times for dramatic wildlife sightings. After a leisurely breakfast at your camp, you'll transfer to the nearby airstrip for your scenic return flight to Arusha. Enjoy the aerial view of the Serengeti’s vast beauty as you reflect on an unforgettable migration experience.
