Mega herds of Wildebeest and Zebra migrate to calve on the plains of the southern and Ndutu areas between December to March, where there is plenty of fresh pasture to feed their newborn.

It is an amazing experience to come across wildebeest with their babies moving around, which is thought to be the beginning of life. This tour will expose you to all major events taking place during this episode of the wildebeest migration.

DAY 3: Full-day in Ndutu

Today we continue our search for migration and other resident animals in the Ndutu region. We take advantage of the off-road driving allowed in this region to drive everywhere possible in order to spot as much as possible. “If it rains,” getting stuck in the mud may be part of our experience because Ndutu has black soil.

We stop for lunch during the day, then return to our Lodge in the evening for relaxation and overnight.

Ngorongoro Crater – Kilimanjaro airport

Early breakfast then departs toward the Ngorongoro crater floor a for crater tour. Ranked as one of the most spectacular wildlife destinations on Earth, this long-extinct volcano is the world’s largest intact caldera. Sheltering within its steep-sided walls are diverse habitats, including permanent wetlands, which support astonishing numbers of animals. Ngorongoro has long protected a thriving population of big game species: great-tusked elephants, robust black rhinos, and famous black-maned lions.

This is one of the few places in Africa where the Big 5 can be seen in a single-game drive. Herds of gazelle, wildebeest, and zebra are resident here while smaller predators like caracal and serval cats are often seen along with lions and their eternal enemies, spotted hyenas. After ascending from the crater floor, we drive to Kilimanjaro International Airport for drop off and checking-in to your onward flight.
