Private Safari Benefits for Your 6 Days Private Tarangire, Serengeti, Ndutu, and Ngorongoro Safari

Best Time for the 6 Days Private Tarangire, Serengeti, Ndutu, and Ngorongoro Safari

The strongest period for this itinerary is generally late December to early March, when the southern Serengeti and Ndutu region can be especially rewarding for the Great Migration's calving season. This period can also include the short rains, so occasional rainfall should be expected. Green scenery, newborn animals, and active predators make this a compelling time for wildlife photography.

Experience the Great Migration on a 6-day Serengeti, Ndutu, Ngorongoro, and Tarangire safari, with opportunities to witness wildebeest herds, predators, newborn calves, and striking landscapes with an experienced guide.

Vehicle Used on the 6 Days Private Tarangire, Serengeti, Ndutu, and Ngorongoro Safari

For safari activities, you will travel in a 4x4 Land Cruiser with a pop-up roof, offering excellent viewing and window seats. The vehicle normally accommodates up to six safari passengers. For airport transfers, a Toyota Alphard, which can carry approximately 1–6 people, is usually used. Transport between Arusha and the parks is included, while airport transfers can be arranged according to your preference.

This is a six-day safari in a custom safari jeep with a pop-up roof, accompanied by a professional guide/driver and supported by the safari team. The route combines varied habitats, wildlife-rich parks, and the seasonal movement of the Great Migration.
