February Migration Safari

Safari summary

This 6-day February private migration safari takes you into the Ndutu plains during the peak Great Migration calving season. The itinerary combines Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater and three wildlife-focused days in Ndutu, giving you time to experience Northern Tanzania’s varied landscapes and February’s important wildebeest gathering.

Seasonal rainfall produces fresh, nutrient-rich grass across Ndutu and the Southern Serengeti. Large herds of wildebeest, zebras and gazelles gather across these plains to feed and give birth. The concentration of vulnerable calves attracts lions, cheetahs, spotted hyenas and jackals, making February one of the most rewarding periods for wildlife observation and predator photography.

Your February Tanzania private safari is operated by KiliPori Safaris using a private 4x4 Land Cruiser with a photographic roof, window seating, charging points, a refrigerator and drinking water. A professional local driver-guide manages the game drives according to current herd movements, road conditions and recent wildlife sightings.

Because this is a private safari, you will not share the vehicle with unrelated travellers. Your guide can adjust departure times, wildlife stops and picnic breaks to suit your interests. This flexibility is particularly valuable during the Ndutu calving season because the migrating herds continually move between the short-grass plains, marshes, lakes and surrounding woodland.

The journey starts in Tarangire National Park, known for elephants, baobab landscapes and diverse wildlife. It then continues to Ngorongoro Crater for a Big Five game drive before reaching Ndutu. Three nights in the Ndutu ecosystem provide opportunities to explore Lake Ndutu, Lake Masek, Big Marsh, open plains and sections extending toward the Southern Serengeti.

Accommodation is provided at Maramboi Tented Lodge, Ngorongoro Farm House and Ndutu Heritage Camp. These comfortable safari properties offer en-suite rooms or tents, full-board meals and practical access to the wildlife areas included in the itinerary. Comparable midrange accommodation may be used when a named lodge is unavailable.

This 6-day February private migration safari is suitable for couples, families, photographers, friends and first-time Tanzania safari travellers. KiliPori Safaris can customise the package with an internal flight, a private sundowner, additional Serengeti nights or a Zanzibar beach extension.
