Day 1

Transfer from zanzibar to southern serengeti (ndutu)

Transfer from zanzibar to southern serengeti (ndutu)

After arrival at Arusha Airpot from zanzibar then transfer to ndutu for day game drive. You will explore the range of different habitats found here including swamps, woodlands, and savannah. With luck, you will see vast crowds of wildebeests, zebras, and antelopes, sometimes stretching to the horizon. The sound of the wildebeests gently mooing is hauntingly beautiful.
During a short time frame (normally in February), many of the female wildebeests give birth to their young, dropping over half a million young in this incredible act of synchronized birthing. The grass provides little cover and the young are easy pickings for a variety of predators (cheetahs, lions, hyenas, and leopards). Wildebeests’ calves can run minutes after they are born and within 3 days they are normally strong enough to keep up with the herd.

After a full day's exploration, you will return to your tented camp in time for dinner and an overnight stay.

Day 2

Game drive at ngorongoro crater then transfer to arusha to back at zanzibar

Game drive at ngorongoro crater then transfer to arusha to back at zanzibar

After breakfast, we'll head out for an en-route game drive through the Serengeti. We may, with lady luck on our side, spot all of the “Big Five across the ‘Endless Plain’ to the Ngorongoro Crater. This UNESCO World Heritage Site formed millions of years ago with the massive explosion of a volcano once higher than Kilimanjaro. It is 610m deep and covers roughly 304sq km. Due to its dense animal population of approximately 25 000 ungulates, the Crater offers the best game viewing. We will arrive at the Crater rim before lunch. With our overview of the spectacular landscape that spreads out before our eyes stored in our memories and memory cards, we descend the bumpy winding track that brings us onto the Crater floor. Very quickly, we will be able to see wildebeest, zebra, gazelle, elephant, perhaps if we're lucky, the black rhino through the grass.
After lunch and a full afternoon inside the Crater, we'll head to Arusha Airport then flight back to zanzibar where the safari will be ends.
