Destinations Covered on Your January Safari
Ndutu Area: Calving Season Wildlife
Ndutu is the main focus of this journey, especially during January when the southern Serengeti and Ngorongoro Conservation Area can become important areas for the Great Wildebeest Migration. Lush short-grass plains attract wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles, while newborn calves can attract predators such as lions, cheetahs, and hyenas.
You can book and plan 3 days—January Ndutu Calving Safari to focus your time on this high-action ecosystem instead of spending most of your trip on long-distance transfers.
Ngorongoro Crater Wildlife
Ngorongoro Crater adds a contrasting wildlife setting to the safari. During the crater game drive, you may see large herbivores, predators, birds, and other wildlife against the spectacular backdrop of the crater walls. This combination makes the itinerary a strong choice for travelers wanting both crater wildlife and January calving-season action.
Accommodation for 3 Days Ndutu Calving Season Safari in January 2027/2028
