Arusha-Ndutu Area

You’ll get an early start this morning to begin your wildebeest calving safari, driving west through the world-renowned Ngorongoro Conservation Area and stopping to take a peek at the volcanic caldera of Ngorongoro Crater along the way. After about five or six hours on the road, you’ll reach the Ndutu region, which lies at the southern tip of the Serengeti. Ndutu is known for lush green plains dotted with flat-topped acacia trees, shallow alkaline lakes where flamingos and other birds gather in great numbers, and—of course—thousands of newborn wildebeest. You’ll keep your eyes peeled as you travel through the bush on your way to tonight’s camp, getting your first glimpse of the many young antelopes hidden among the herds.

Ndutu-Ngorongoro Crater

After enjoying a delicious breakfast, the morning will kick off with a thrilling game drive in the Ndutu area. You’ll have the opportunity to explore the rich wildlife and stunning landscapes. A half-day game drive will be followed by a picnic lunch amidst the wilderness. Later, we will divert our route towards the Ngorongoro Crater rim. The drive to the rim spans 75 km and is estimated to take approximately 2.5 hours, offering mild game sightings along the way. The Ngorongoro Crater is a remarkable geological wonder and a true haven of untamed wilderness. As the day draws to a close, you’ll savor a satisfying dinner and retire to your comfortable accommodation for a well-deserved rest.

Ngorongoro Crater-Arusha

After breakfast, you'll descend back into the crater for an early morning game drive, hoping the cool morning air allows you to see some active wildlife. As the temperatures rise, you may head to the hippo pool to see these spectacular creatures enjoying a dip to beat the heat. As lunch approaches, you'll make your way to the picnic site on the lake, taking in the spectacular views and a bite to eat before you head out on the final game drive. After your last glimpse of the park, you'll head towards the crater rim to make the journey back to Arusha for the evening.
