An early start takes us to the rim of the magnificent Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. We will descend 600 meters to the crater floor for an incredible game drive. This self-contained ecosystem boasts one of the highest densities of wildlife in Africa, including the Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, rhino, and buffalo). After our crater exploration, we ascend and drive to the heart of the Great Migration: the Ndutu area of the Southern Serengeti.

Today is dedicated entirely to the Ndutu plains. This area is the primary calving ground for the wildebeest. You will be surrounded by vast herds, witnessing the miracle of birth and the dramatic interactions with predators like cheetahs, lions, and hyenas that are drawn to the abundance of vulnerable newborns. Your game drives will be flexible to maximize viewing opportunities.
