4 days the calving season for the private Ndutu Migration safari begins at the end of December and lasts through January, February, March, and April. In the Serengeti and Ndutu Plains in northern Tanzania's Ngorongoro Conservation Areas, wildebeests give birth. The Southern Serengeti and Ndutu regions of Tanzania are the ideal sites to witness hundreds of wildebeest grazing on the fertile short grass plains in the months of January, February, March, and April of 2026 & 2027. Predator activity is at its height, with excellent chances to see magnificent, adrenaline-pumping kills and excellent views of cheetah, lion, hyena, and leopard.
After breakfast, tourists will be picked up from their Arusha hotel and transferred to the Arusha airport for a short (50-minute) flight or a car (4x4 Jeep open roof) to the Serengeti North Ndutu Area. Upon arrival, tourists will meet a car driver guide for a full-day game drive in Ndutu to view the magnificent migration. We'll drive to the camp for dinner and an overnight stay in the evening. The Lake Ndutu area, situated in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, is part of the southern Serengeti ecosystem. Lake Ndutu is alkaline, like most of the other Rift Valley lakes; however, the water is still drinkable and used by a wide array of local wildlife. The majority of the wildebeest migration can normally be found on the short-grass plains from December to April. The area is usually heavily populated with elephants, spectacular birds, and resident wildlife.
On day two, the tourist(s) will go on an early morning game drive in the Ndutu Area before returning to the camp for lunch. You'll also play an evening game before heading back to camp for dinner and an overnight stay. Through explanation, information about this great and attractive world event that Tanzania is proud of will be provided. And, as the sun sets, Tanzania's oldest and most popular national park, also a world heritage site and recently designated as the world's seventh wonder, the Serengeti, is famous for its annual migration.
The Serengeti National Park is well known for its healthy stock of other resident wildlife, particularly the "Big Five," named for the five most prized trophies taken by hunters: Lions: The Serengeti is believed to hold the largest population of lions in Africa, due in part to the abundance of prey species. More than 3,000 lions live in this ecosystem. African Leopard: These reclusive predators are commonly seen around.
Tourists will enjoy a morning game drive, then return to the camp for breakfast. Afterward, they’ll be driven back to Arusha by a driver. and you’ll be dropped at your hotel.
