Safari summary
Experience Tanzania’s wildebeest calving season on a private four-day safari focused on the Ndutu plains and Ngorongoro Crater.
Instead of spending valuable safari time on long transfers, this itinerary includes three nights in the Ndutu area, giving you two full days to follow the migration herds, newborn calves and the predators attracted to this seasonal concentration of wildlife.
Travel with your own professional guide in a private 4x4 Land Cruiser and stay at a comfortable mid-range tented camp with en-suite facilities and full-board meals.
The safari finishes with a game drive inside the spectacular Ngorongoro Crater before returning to Arusha or Moshi.

Itinerary
Arusha to Ndutu Plains
Depart from Arusha or Moshi early in the morning and travel through the Ngorongoro Highlands toward Ndutu. After arriving in the calving-season area, begin your first afternoon game drive across the open plains and woodland. Your guide will follow current wildlife movements to maximize opportunities to see wildebeest, zebras, gazelles and predators. Meals: Lunch & Dinner
Accommodation: GNU Ndutu Camp
Full Day Ndutu Calving
Spend the entire day exploring the Ndutu ecosystem. During the calving months, large numbers of wildebeest gather across the southern plains, accompanied by zebras and gazelles. Lions, cheetahs, hyenas and jackals are also commonly attracted to the abundance of prey. Enjoy a picnic lunch during the game drive and continue exploring until late afternoon. Meals: Breakfast, Picnic Lunch & Dinner
Accommodation: GNU Ndutu Camp
Ndutu Wildlife Safari
Enjoy another full day dedicated to Ndutu. Having a second full day gives your private guide flexibility to explore different areas according to herd movements and recent sightings rather than following a fixed route. You can spend longer at interesting sightings, enjoy photography and experience the calving season at a relaxed pace. Meals: Breakfast, Picnic Lunch & Dinner
Accommodation: GNU Ndutu Camp
Ngorongoro Crater to Arusha
After an early breakfast, leave Ndutu and travel toward Ngorongoro Crater. Descend to the crater floor for an extended game drive in search of lions, elephants, buffalo, zebras, wildebeest, hippos, hyenas and the endangered black rhino. After your picnic lunch, ascend from the crater and return to Arusha or Moshi. Meals: Breakfast & Lunch
