5 Days Private Mid-Range South Serengeti Migration Safari from Moshi in Tanzania (2026 - 2027) - Tour details
Moshi - South Serengeti National Park (Ndutu Area)
The migration safari begins early on the first day with a pick-up from your hotel in Moshi. You’ll head towards the Ndutu region, a 5.5-hour drive covering 260 kilometers. Two hours into the journey, you’ll enter the Ngorongoro Conservation Area (NCA), where the landscape transforms from hilly forests to open plains and green grasslands. Upon reaching Ndutu, you'll embark on a half-day game drive, including a picnic lunch break. Sweeping grasslands extend into the Serengeti, and Ndutu is a key route for the annual migration of over 2 million wildebeests, along with zebras, antelopes, and gazelles. During the migration season from December to April, the plains become calving grounds and a nursery, attracting predators hunting vulnerable young wildebeests. The area is also home to waterholes like Ndutu Lake and Lake Masek, offering abundant wildlife during the dry season. The game drive ends around 5 PM, and you’ll head to your accommodation for a freshly prepared dinner and rest.

Witnessing the circle of life unfold will be an unforgettable experience. The thrilling game drive concludes around 5 PM, after which you’ll head to your accommodation for a freshly prepared dinner.

The excitement for today will be high as you journey into the world-renowned Serengeti National Park. After a hearty breakfast, you will head towards the park, traveling through its vast, endless grasslands. The name "Serengeti" means "endless plains" in the local African language, and the sight of the grasslands stretching far into the horizon is truly breathtaking. Covering 14,763 square kilometers, it offers a remarkable sense of distance. The park is home to the iconic “Big 5” – elephant, rhino, buffalo, lion, and leopard – along with the graceful Impala, one of Africa’s most beautiful animals. The Serengeti ecosystem is known for supporting the highest concentration of plains game in Africa. Keep an eye out for the “Kopjes,” large granite boulders amidst the grass that shelter diverse wildlife. A picnic lunch will be enjoyed during the exciting game drive, and the day concludes with a fulfilling dinner and restful sleep at your accommodation.
