Calving wildebeest migration safari during the season allows you to see the birth of over 4,000 calves every day. These newborns are preyed upon by lions, leopards, cheetahs, and hyenas as they take their first steps.
During the Serengeti calving season, there is a high likelihood of witnessing predator-prey interaction and even a kill, which is fantastic news for wildlife photographers but not so great for the wildebeest. This safari schedule is ideal for a visit between December and March.

Pick up from the Airport
When you arrive, our company representative will be waiting for you at the airport. He will pick you up from the airport; you will recognize him by the special board on which your name is written. The driver will take you straight to your Arusha lodging so you can unwind. You will then have time to explore Arusha Town, stopping at the Maasai market, local marketplaces, cultural landmarks, and the Arusha City Museum.
Arusha Farm House
Arusha to Sourthern Serengeeti - Ndutu Area
Following hotel breakfast, you will travel 260 km (about 5.5 hours) to Ndutu, passing through the breathtaking Ngorongoro Highland crater en route to the Serengeti plain’s boundless expanse. On the plain of the southern Serengeti National Park, you can observe herds of wildebeest grazing. It is possible to go to a Maasai Boma on this day to learn more about their way of life (optional). The Big Five and other wildlife can be seen in the Serengeti, which is well-known for its massive migration.
Safari Haven Migration Camp
Southern Serengeti - Ndutu Area
A game drive in the Ndutu will take place early in the morning. With animals like lions, leopards, and cheetahs out and about during the morning, we hope to witness the African wild sunrise here.
You will then proceed with a full-day game drive in the plain following breakfast, with a good chance of witnessing sizable herds of wildebeest grazing on the boundless grass plain. Furthermore, it’s a good time to witness large predators killing wildebeest. Following your encounter with the wildebeests, you will make your way back to the camp for dinner and the night.
Safari Haven Migration Camp
Ndutu to Ngorongoro Conservation Area
This is your last chance to spend some time with the wildebeests, so enjoy an early morning game drive in the Ndutu Area. Following a delectable lunch, you will depart once more for the Ngorongoro Conservation Area.
You’ll have plenty of chances to see wildlife on your afternoon drive back through the magnificent Ngorongoro Highlands. You’ll see strong African elephants, elegant and tall giraffes, leaping gazelles and antelopes, and the most revered of all animal groups: the predators.
It is possible to observe slender cheetahs, timid leopards, hyenas going on their daily hunt, and of course, the majestic lions
Embalakai Ngorongoro Camp
Ngorongoro Crater to Arusha
You’ll get an early start on your final day of safari. You will have a quick breakfast before beginning your early descent into the crater floor at around 6:30 am. The largest intact, unfilled, inactive volcanic caldera in the world is the Ngorongoro Crater.
With a depth of more than 2000 feet, it boasts a vast floor area of roughly 260 sq km. You will witness a great deal of animal activity during the five to six-hour game drive on the crater floor.
It’s advised to always have the camera ready. There are many African animals to be found, including lions, hyenas, cheetahs, buffalo, hippos, and black rhinos. You will start a steep ascent to the top exit of the crater after enjoying a picnic lunch at the lovely Hippo pool.
You’ll be driven to Arusha later on, where you can unwind at the hotel for the duration of the following day.

Kate BVerified So good we want to come back again ASAP for another safari area and will definitely book with Experience Safaris. Our recent 10 day Safari truly answered any “bucket list” desires we had about experiencing Wild Africa. Reggie was with us constantly for 10 days and we came to love him in a whole new way: as a guide/protector/friend/son. He knows all the areas we visited so well that it seemed as if he put in an order for a certain animal to appear sometimes as we rounded a corner or gently drove up to a remote area that just looked like dry bush grass but lo and behold the lion cubs! We had a few unexpected adventures such as vehicle troubles, but Reggie calmly and systematically handled those issues like a true professional.With so much time together we were able to talk about just about everything from cultural differences to animal habitat. He is vastly knowledgeable about so many aspects of nature, well beyond what one might expect from a typical “let’s just see what we can find today” approach.We are so glad to have committed to the 10 day safari instead of the rush a shorter one would have been. Reggie adapted everything to our pace, which we greatly appreciated. He is a man of grace, integrity, humour and great kindness- he has the servant’s heart and no request was any problem to him. Hakuna matata was our motto.If we were to recommend one change to our long safari it would be to fly the long distances with our guide, which they can arrange.We cannot recommend Experience Safaris highly enough. Rob BlickleVerified Exceeded our bucket list expectations After a 10 day safari, I'm Reggie's biggest fan. His enthusiastic spirit is as big as the great outdoors. With his capable hands on the safari jeep's wheel, every day was truly the adventure of a lifetime. You couldn't ask for anything more on a wildlife tour in the most exciting location on the planet. I was in awe of his broad knowledge of Tanzania's flora and fauna. His deep love and respect for the people and animals of his home country is a pure pleasure to experience. Discover the heart of Africa with this dependable and enjoyable young man. Aida ZVerified Wonderful! Unforgettable !
