07 Days 06 Nights Tanzania Wildebeest Calving Adventure Safari

Forget the crowds, experience the raw power of the Great Migration at its most intimate. This 6-day Tanzanian adventure skips the throngs of Serengeti and dives straight into the heart of the birthing grounds: Ndutu Plains. Witness the awe-inspiring spectacle of millions of wildebeest calving in a synchronized dance of life.

Imagine the thunderous roar of hooves as the plains teem with wildebeest and zebra. Watch playful calves frolic alongside their mothers, while predators stalk the fringes in a constant game of survival. Your expert guide will ensure you have exclusive viewing spots, capturing the drama and beauty of this natural phenomenon. But Ndutu offers more than just the migration. Explore the diverse ecosystem, spotting lions feasting on a buffalo kill, cheetahs teaching their young to hunt, or vultures battling over a carcass.

 DAY 04: FULL DAY OF GAME DRIVES & GAME VIEWINGS IN NDUTU PLAINS

Your chance to see the wildebeest migration across the Ndutu plain is high. This season, the wildebeest migration is on its move around the Ndutu plains and in the north of the Ngorongoro Conservation area. In January – February, and March the plains are fully occupied by millions of wildebeest and zebra cows with their new calves born in a short window around February. Gradually, they spread across these plains to the west, and then around April, they begin their long northward migration to Maasai Mara in Kenya through central and western Serengeti.

As long as you keep your eyes open, it is uncommon to spot a pride of Lions feeding on buffalo kill or Cheetah demonstrating hunting techniques to her cubs and Vultures competing on a wildebeest carcass. Other animals inhabiting this paradise are Impala, Giraffes, Hyenas, Warthogs, and hundreds of bird species. Dinner and overnight at the lodge/camp. Accommodation on full board basis.

Ngorongoro Crater often described as one of the wonders of the world and designated by UNESCO a World Heritage site, is the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera and a natural sanctuary for some of Africa’s densest animal populations. It is one of the few places where the rare black rhino can be observed in their natural setting.

As very few animals migrate in and out of the crater with its 2000 ft. high walls, you can expect to see lions, elephants, zebras, hippos, flamingos, jackals, rhinos, antelopes, many birds and other species. With a bit of luck, the ‘Big Five’ can be spotted during one game drive only. Later, drive  further to Karatu for dinner, and overnight at the lodge.
