Your adventure begins with an early morning departure from Arusha, driving toward the world-famous Ngorongoro Crater. Descend into the caldera for a thrilling game drive, where you’ll encounter black rhinos, lions, elephants, and large herds of zebra and wildebeest. A picnic lunch will be enjoyed on the crater floor with stunning views all around.
In the afternoon, continue your journey with an en route game drive as you head toward the Ndutu Plains in the southern Serengeti. As the sun sets, relax at your midrange safari camp and soak in the magical atmosphere of the African wilderness.
✨ The Ndutu region is especially famous during the Great Migration calving season (December–April), when thousands of wildebeest give birth, attracting predators and offering spectacular wildlife encounters.
