Arusha - Ndutu Plains

After breakfast at your hotel, you will drive to Ndutu Southern Serengeti, journey on with a game drive within Ndutu Plains in search of wildebeest migration. Serengeti means endless plain in the Maasai language. The southern plain is where this name comes from. The vast grassy plains stretch as far as your eyes can see. It is in the southeast plain of Serengeti where the expanse herds of wildebeest migration stay from December through April. 90% of adult female wildebeest give birth in this plain during February. During this time predators such as lions, cheetahs and hyenas are seen in good numbers as their prey is in abundance. Dinner and Overnight at Tanzania Bush Camp.

Ndutu Plains - The Migration Continues

Early breakfast at the camp and embark for an amaizing day to interact with Wildebeest and Zebra Migration, It is during February, the wildebeest are on the short grass plains (Ndutu) of the southeast part of the ecosystem, grazing and giving birth to approximately 500,000 calves in 2 to 3 weeks. Few calves are born ahead of time and of these, hardly any survive, largely because very young calves are more noticeable to predators when mixed with older calves from the previous year. As the rains end in May, the animals start moving northwest into the areas around the Grumeti River in western Serengeti. Dinner and overnight at Ngorongoro Serena Hotel.

Exciting Big Tusker Safari

Breakfast at Ngorongoro Serena Hotel, Ngorongoro Crater is just one of those places that has to be seen – words alone cannot do it justice. Leaving our lodge we’ll drive down into what was once, many eons ago, the fiery heart of a huge volcano. Today this natural amphitheatre has a much more peaceful atmosphere as Wildebeest, Coke’s Hartebeest, Grant’s and Thomson’s Gazelles, and Common Zebra feed contentedly - or at least as contentedly as the ever present Lions and Cheetah will allow, although the Black Rhinoceros here will be less concerned about these predators. The bird life in the crater varies according to the seasons but during our visit we should see Grey Crowned Crane, Lappet-faced Vulture, Black-bellied and Kori Bustards, Fischer’s Lovebird and Northern Anteater Chat among many others. Lunch to be saved at the designated picnic site in the Crater. Later you will drive back to Arusha Town.
