Destinations Covered on the 5 Days Ndutu and Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari in March 2027/2028
Central Serengeti – 1 Night
Central Serengeti provides a classic safari landscape with open plains, rocky kopjes and diverse wildlife. Game drives may reveal lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephants, buffalo, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest and many bird species. Your first night introduces you to the remarkable wildlife of the Serengeti.
Ndutu Area – 2 Nights
Ndutu is the key focus of this March safari because the area is closely associated with the wildebeest calving season. The wildebeest calving season at Ndutu typically runs from late December through March, peaking in January and February. During this period, the green short-grass plains can attract large herds and predators.
A 5 Days Ndutu and Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari in March offers a front-row opportunity to witness the later part of the calving season. Large numbers of wildebeest and zebra move across the southern Serengeti and Ndutu plains, while newborn calves and concentrated prey can create excellent opportunities for observing natural predator-prey interactions.
Ngorongoro Crater
Ngorongoro Crater adds a different landscape to your safari. Descending into the crater provides opportunities to see lions, elephants, buffalo, zebras, wildebeest, hippos, hyenas and many bird species within a compact wildlife area. The crater floor, surrounding highlands and varied habitats make this a memorable final safari destination.
Accommodation on the 5 Days Ndutu and Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari in March 2027/2028
