Day 2

Full Day in Ndutu

Spend the entire day exploring the vast Ndutu plains, a prime location during the calving season (December–March). Here, you will witness thousands of wildebeest and zebras giving birth, an extraordinary event that attracts predators such as lions, cheetahs, and hyenas. The open plains provide excellent opportunities for photography and wildlife encounters. You can choose to take a full-day game drive with a picnic lunch in the bush, or split your safari into morning and afternoon drives, returning to camp for a hot lunch and some relaxation before your evening adventure.
