Day 1
Arusha - Ndutu Area
Arusha - Ndutu Area
You will be picked up from Arusha at 7:00 am, then depart to the Ndutu area in Serengeti South. Enjoy a full-day game drive viewing the great wildebeest migration. During lunchtime, your driver will set and prepare the table for a full, hot meal (soup, bread rolls, main dish, and a fruit salad) followed by a glass of wine or tea/coffee. In the late afternoon, we return to the camp at Ngorongoro for dinner and our overnight stay.
Explore the range of different habitats, including swamps, woodland, soda lakes, and the world-famous Serengeti short grassplains. See great herds of wildebeest and zebra. During a short time frame around February, normally lasting for about 3 weeks, most of the wildebeest calve. The sea of grass provides little cover and the young are easy pickings for various predators. Wildebeest calves can run minutes after they are born.

The Serengeti is perhaps the most famous for its 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.
