Ndutu, southern Serengeti ecosystem, Tanzania
About the stay
Why we use it
A tented camp on the Ndutu plains, where the wildebeest give birth in the green season.
Ndutu is the southern end of the Serengeti ecosystem, inside the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. From about late January to March the wildebeest herds gather here to give birth, and the lions, cheetahs and hyenas follow them.
We use Ang’ata Ndutu on our calving-season safaris because the herds are often a short drive from camp, not half a day away. The tents are en-suite, with meals in the main tent.
Close to the calving
In season, the herds are often near camp.
Tented and en-suite
Comfortable tents with their own bathroom.
Best January to March
Book early: calving season fills up.

FAQs
Can I add Ang’ata Ndutu to a different safari?
Usually, yes, as long as the safari passes through Ndutu. Tell us which safari you like and we'll send the price with Ang’ata Ndutu in it.
Can I stay an extra night?
Yes. An extra night gives you a full day of game drives without packing up. We'll add the night, the extra park day and the meals to your quote.
What happens if it's full on my dates?
We tell you before you pay anything, and suggest the closest match in the same area and price range.
Is it suitable for children?
Tell us your children's ages and we'll check the property's rules for your dates. Some camps set a minimum age.
How do I pay?
Nothing is paid until you're happy with the quote. Then a deposit holds the safari: 20% for camping safaris, 40% for lodge safaris.
