Safari summary

Embark on an unforgettable 4-day Serengeti Calving Season Safari with Kiliclimb Africa Safaris, designed to immerse you in the heart of the Great Wildebeest Migration from January to March. This special fly-in, drive-out safari focuses on the Ndutu area of the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Conservation Area, giving you front-row access to one of the most awe-inspiring wildlife spectacles in the world.

During this period, the southern Serengeti plains and northern Ngorongoro transform into a vibrant hub of wildlife activity. Over 2 million wildebeest and zebras gather to graze on the nutrient-rich plains, and this is prime calving season, with February being the peak month. Witness the extraordinary birth of over half a million wildebeest calves in a synchronized event, with up to 8,000 calves born in a single day. This calving attracts predators like lions, cheetahs, and hyenas, offering a raw and breathtaking experience of nature’s circle of life.
