A UNIQUE LOCATION: Ndutu, Ngorongoro Conservation Area Ndutu is located in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, in the southeastern plains of the Serengeti ecosystem. The plains around Ndutu are the main holding ground for migratory animals where vast herds congregate and linger for more than four months, from December to April, before they start moving across the Serengeti in search of greener pastures and water. Ndutu area forms an important part of the Serengeti ecosystem, in particular the short grass plains which provide calving grounds for wildebeest and other migratory animals, usually taking place between January and March.

Big herds of migratory animals in their hundreds of thousands can be seen here from December before they start fanning out into central Serengeti in April / May, with predators including lions, cheetah, hyenas, and jackals closely following.

Best time to travel Ndutu is renowned because of the Great Migration but the area is also famous for its resident game, including lions, cheetah, leopard, genets, striped hyena, elephants, impala, hartebeest, giraffes, dik dik, and reedbucks which can be viewed throughout the year.

ADDITIONAL ACTIVITIES & SERVICES (Net rates) :

Walking Safari: Our nature walk is designed to fit into your safari schedule, and can be in the morning or late afternoon when tropical temperatures are cool. A walk in Ndutu, accompanied by guides and a ranger is an excellent break from game drives, where you will learn several fascinating facts about nature, birds, reptiles, insects and medicinal uses of local plants which you may not fully appreciate from the seat of your safari car. We have a choice of three different trails of between 1.5hrs to 3hrs.

Bush Lunch: Bush meals are a real restaurant set-up in the wilderness with chairs, tables, table cloth, porcelain, glassware, silver cutlery, a chef overseeing live cooking and waiters. The private bush meal site is carefully appointed to provide an environment of exclusivity and bring guests closer to nature in the fresh air. A truly unforgettable experience Maasai Boma Diner: It’s another fantastic way to experience a bush meal. Our lodge has a Maasaï boma where our guests will be invited for dining under the stars around a crackling log fire. Truly an unforgettable evening in Ndutu.

Champagne Bush breakfast: Guests wanting to celebrate a special occasion or enjoy a bit of romance can arrange for a champagne breakfast in the privacy of their tent’s balcony or for the more adventurous, a champagne breakfast in the bush. Sundowner: Ndutu sunsets are beautiful, and we love sharing this unique African bush experience with our guests over a sundowner. The drive to the sundowner site normally starts from the lodge at 6pm or earlier arriving in time for the brief moment of the sun setting over a low hill on the horizon, leaving behind colorful displays of red, gold, orange, crimson…that lingers long after the actual disappearance of the sun. Some guests on game drives would prefer proceeding straight on to the sundowner site to capture the sunset without going back to the lodge. The sundowner site is carefully chosen, offering uninterrupted wide views of the sunset. Guests will have a choice of drinks, dry snacks and “canapés” to pick. The serene, natural sundowner setting and the contrasting sunset colors is an experience that will stay in your memory for a long time to come. Hot air balloon over Ndutu & Southern Serengeti
