Ndutu & Ngorongoro Luxury Tour

Tour Overview

The Wildebeest Migration Safari has been designed specifically to focus on following the Great Serengeti Wildebeest migration during calving from December to April.

Ndutu areas in Tanzania are the best locations for the months of January, February and March to witness thousands of wildebeest spread across the plains grazing on the rich short grass plains. Predator action is at its peak with great sightings of cheetah, lion, hyena and leopard and a very good chance to see adrenalin-packed kills.

Full Itinerary

Day 1: Arrival – Arusha

Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro airport, you will be met by your driver and transferred to your accommodation in Arusha town, the Palace Hotel. Settle into your accommodation, ready to start your safari proper in the morning.

Day 2 - 4: Ndutu Area

Depart Arusha to Ndutu. Ndutu Area forms the North-western part of the Ngorongoro Conservation area. It settles between Ngorongoro and Serengeti. Ndutu is known for beautiful landscape and the famous calving season caused by the immigration of the wildebeests from the Masai Mara Reserve in Kenya to The Great Serengeti plains in Tanzania.

There are at least 5000 calves born every day due to the large number of wildebeests that cross over. The best season to visit the place is from December all the way to end March. Having 3 nights in Ndutu will give you enough time for exploration of the area. You will spend your 3 nights at Ndutu Safari Lodge.

Day 5 - 6: Karatu

After breakfast depart and descend into the crater some 600 meters to experience the true spirit of Africa, the Africa of bygone days when you explore the crater as permanent home of wildlife population, long regarded as Africa’s “Garden of Eden”. From the comfort of your 4 x 4 vehicle crafted exclusively for game viewing will give an opportunity to spot Big five – Elephant, buffalo, leopard, black mane lion and the rare black rhinoceros- as well hyenas, jackals, flamingos and the yawning hippos.

Enjoy a delightful picnic lunch in the heart of this ancient volcanic crater close to the hippo pool. Early evening drive to Marera Farm Lodge for dinner and overnight. Ndutu and Ngorongoro Crater tours have something special for you, you will spend three days in Ndutu in spotting wildebeest migration and 1 day in Ngorongoro crater. The rest of the days will be spent in Lake Manyara. This itinerary can be customized to few or more days.
