After breakfast, you will drive towards the Ndutu region in the southern Serengeti, where the Great Migration’s calving season takes place. From December to March, thousands of wildebeests give birth on the open plains, creating a spectacular wildlife phenomenon. This region is a prime spot for predator activity, as lions, cheetahs, and hyenas take advantage of the vulnerable newborns. You will enjoy a picnic lunch and continue game viewing until evening. Your overnight stay will be at Serengeti Heritage Ndutu, a luxury tented camp offering an authentic safari experience.

A picnic lunch will be served in the wild, followed by an afternoon game drive. In the evening, you will return to Serengeti Heritage Ndutu for dinner and another night under the African sky.

After breakfast, you will depart for the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, arriving at the Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
