4 Days Private Mid-Range Ndutu Migration from Moshi

The migration safari starts early with a hotel pick-up in Moshi, followed by a 5.5-hour drive to the Ndutu region. After two hours, you enter the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, where the landscape shifts from forests to open grasslands. Upon arrival in Ndutu, a half-day game drive begins, with a picnic lunch break. This region, blending into the Serengeti, is a crucial part of the wildebeest migration, with over 2 million animals passing through, along with zebras and antelopes. During the calving season (December, January, February, March–April), predators are drawn to the vulnerable young. Ndutu’s waterholes, such as Lake Masek and Ndutu Lake, offer rich wildlife sightings even in the dry season. The game drive ends at 5 PM, followed by dinner at your accommodation, preparing you for another thrilling day.
