Inland of the floodplain, a narrow belt of acacia woodland is the favored haunt of Manyara’s legendary tree-climbing lions and impressively tusked elephants.

Serengeti South - Ndutu
After your breakfast at the lodge, we'll leave for Serengeti South in the Ndutu area for a whole day of game drive; watching the big group of migrating wildebeests. Around lunchtime, your driver will find a spot to set up a table for your hot meal.
You'll have soup, bread rolls, a main dish, and fruit salad, along with a glass of wine, tea, or coffee. After lunch, you'll continue your game drive until it starts getting dark. Then, we'll head back to the lodge for dinner and to sleep overnight.
Explore diverse habitats like swamps, woodlands, soda lakes, and the famous Serengeti short-grass plains. See huge herds of wildebeest and zebra. In February, most wildebeest calves are born over about three weeks. The open grasslands leave them exposed to predators, but they can run within minutes of birth and keep up with the herd within three days.

Ndutu Area
You will have an early breakfast at the camp, followed by a full-day game drive in Serengeti South in the Ndutu area. Watch the wildebeest migration and see a lot of predators, including lion, leopard and cheetah. Return to the camp for a hot lunch and an afternoon rest. In the late afternoon, go on a game drive until the evening when you will head to the camp for dinner and your overnight stay.
Lake Ndutu is alkaline like most of the other rift lakes, however, the water is still drinkable and used by a wide array of 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, birds and resident game.

Breakfast at the camp is followed by a game drive in the Ndutu area, exploring the grassy plains and woodlands, tracking the massed herds of wildebeest and zebra. Witness the birth of new calves and trailing predators such as lion, cheetah and hyena on the hunt. During lunchtime, your driver will set and prepare the table under an acacia tree with our beautiful car shade for a full hot meal (soup, bread rolls, main dish, fruit salad) with a glass of wine, tea or coffee. After lunch, we continue with the game drive until the evening, then head to Ngorongoro for dinner and our overnight stay.
The Serengeti is perhaps most famous for the great migration. Over a million wildebeest and about 200,000 zebra flow south from the northern hills to the southern plains for the short rains every October and November and then swirl west and north after the long rains in April, May and June.

The jewel in Ngorongoro's crown is a deep, volcanic crater, the largest unflooded and unbroken caldera in the world. About 20 kilometer across, 600 meter deep and 300 sq km in area, the Ngorongoro Crater is a breathtaking natural wonder.
