Keep transfers slim: This 6-day safari tour lets you explore the Central Serengeti and Ndutu Serengeti, offering a unique opportunity to experience both productive wildlife zones. Your journey begins in Zanzibar, where you’ll enjoy seamless bush flights to the heart of the Serengeti, maximizing your time in the wild.

Your first night will be spent at KumbuKumbu Tented Camp in the Central Serengeti, an upper mid-range camp that provides an authentic tented experience without unnecessary frills. Here, you’ll enjoy hearty meals featuring local flavors, including picnic breakfasts and communal dinners that foster a sense of camaraderie among guests. The Meru-style tents are equipped with comfortable beds and en-suite bathrooms, ensuring a restful night after a day of thrilling game drives.

Next, you’ll head to Malaika Ndutu Luxury Camp, a seasonal gem in the Ndutu plains, where you’ll be perfectly positioned to witness the calving season from December to March. This camp offers spacious canvas tents with en-suite bathrooms and hot showers, providing a polished yet affordable base for your safari adventure. Meals here blend international staples with Swahili specialties, served in a shared dining tent that enhances the social atmosphere.

With off-road driving privileges at Ndutu, you can track predators closely, a rare experience in most of the Serengeti National Park. This tour is ideal for both first-time visitors and seasoned safari-goers looking to deepen their wildlife experience. As you watch the sunrise over the plains, the anticipation of spotting lions and elephants adds to the thrill of your journey.

For a truly immersive experience, consider extending your stay or combining this safari with a visit to the Ngorongoro Crater or Tarangire National Park. Each destination offers its own unique wildlife encounters and breathtaking landscapes.
