Experience the wonders of Ndutu Serengeti, the heart of the Central Serengeti, and the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater. This journey is perfect for both first-time visitors and seasoned safari-goers seeking a blend of wildlife encounters and stunning landscapes.
Your adventure begins at Ndutu Kati Kati Tented Camp, a mid-range seasonal camp that offers a unique opportunity to witness the incredible calving season from December to March. With its strategic location, you’ll have the chance to see thrilling predator action right outside your tent.

Next, you’ll travel to the Ngorongoro Coffee Lodge, nestled among lush coffee estates in Karatu. This upper mid-range lodge provides spacious cottages with fireplaces and verandas, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploration. Enjoy early hot breakfasts and generous picnic lunches, ensuring you’re fueled for your adventures in the Ngorongoro Crater, where you can witness the Big 5 in their natural habitat.
Your final stop is the Tamba Tented Camp in the Central Serengeti, where you’ll experience refined dining and well-furnished canvas tents. With a central location, you can easily chase the great migration or focus on the resident predators. Meals here include plated breakfasts and three-course dinners, providing a delightful culinary experience amidst the wild.
