Day 3

Ngorongoro crater

Ngorongoro crater

Enjoy an early breakfast and set out on your first morning game drive in Ndutu. The sun will be rising, providing beautiful golden light over the plains and enhancing your wildlife experience.

On your game drive, a packed lunch will be provided at a scenic spot, offering an incredible view of the migration or local wildlife. You will continue exploring the Ndutu plains. This area is particularly famous for its seasonal changes: during the migration season, the plains become calving grounds for wildebeests and other herbivores, attracting numerous predators.
In addition to the migration, you'll encounter other wildlife such as lions, cheetahs, hyenas, jackals, and a variety of birds. The presence of waterholes like Lake Ndutu and Lake Masek draws many animals, especially during the dry season, providing exceptional opportunities for game viewing.

In the late afternoon, return to your lodge or camp for a well-deserved rest after a day filled with game drives and wildlife encounters.
