Safari summary
Experience the heart of Tanzania’s wildebeest calving season on this private five-day safari through the Ndutu plains and Ngorongoro Crater.
Three nights are spent in the Ndutu area, giving you two dedicated full days to follow the migration herds, newborn calves and the predators attracted to this seasonal wildlife concentration.
Travel in your own private 4x4 Land Cruiser with a professional guide, allowing the daily game drives to follow current wildlife movements rather than a fixed group schedule.
The final night is spent near Ngorongoro, allowing an early and relaxed start for the crater safari on the final day. Prices are based on January–March seasonal accommodation rates and remain subject to exact travel dates and availability.
