Simple but stylish camp with first class private vehicle and guide. Excellent game, near the wildebeest migration calving on Serengeti Southern Plains
Guide Price: From: $450 To: $740
Nomad's Ndutu Seasonal Camp moves into the Ndutu woodland on the Serengeti Southern Plains between December and March as the wildebeest herds arrive in preparation for giving birth. It's here that they find the phosphorous rich grasses that they thrive on. This is a time of plenty for the animals and action is never far away at this time of year as the wildebeest cows drop their young. The Ndutu Safari Camp is located in the mature acacia woodland of Ndutu so as to be in prime location for this epic event.
The luxury mobile safari camp caters for only 16 people at a time and moves seasonally around the Serengeti ecosystem shadowing the Serengeti wildebeest migration. The camp not only offers one of the best chances of finding the wildebeest migration away from the crowds, but is also superbly comfortable with first class food. It's also one of the best ways to access to some remote and little visited areas of the Serengeti ecosystem that are well out of reach of the permanent safari lodges. The small crew of 4 - 6 Tanzanians who run the operation are friendly and efficient and look after your every need down to the smallest detail. In cold months you'll even find a hot water bottle in your bed when you turn in.
While walking is a possibility in some parts of the Serengeti, the emphasis here is predominantly on game drives and witnessing the migration and resident game in the company of one of Nomad's outstanding guides. While Serengeti Safari camp is shared by a maximum of 16 guests at one time, each group, whether you're a couple or a larger group, have a private vehicle and guide throughout the safari. This means you have full flexibility in planning your safari activities with your guide to suit yourselves. Nomad supply lavish picnics to be taken on all-day game drives, so you can choose to stay out all day some times, and return to camp for a lazy lunch and siesta on others.
We just got back on Monday after our 3 weeks in the bush and we had a fantastic trip - thanks to Natural High for organising everything. We saw all of the game that we could imagine and a total of 250 species of birds, the overall experience was quite overwhelming. We had a wonderful trip.

Just a note to let you know that our trip to Tanzania was spectacular. We had the best guide who was most knowledgeable and great fun to be with. The tents and yurts were wonderful and the food was delicious. We were blessed with excellent weather and saw every animal possible and plenty of action among the big cats. It was unforgettable and I miss it already.

We have now returned from our wonderful holiday in Tanzania and would like to thank Natural High Safaris for the excellent organization of this safari. Everything worked like a treat, there were always people to meet us on arrival in each stop and everything that we had read and been told about at each place, was as described.

The Serengeti is the best known safari destination in the world with good reason. Even if you exclude the Wildebeest Migration with its 1.5 million odd animals, the proliferation of animal life in the Serengeti defies belief. In the company of a good guide, this can be like stepping into a wildlife documentary. We’d advocate building your safari in northern Tanzania around the greater Serengeti, but you do need to be aware that being in the right place at the right time is everything in this neck of the woods. Find out when the Serengeti Wildebeest Migration happens. Read more?
Tanzania safaris rival a safari any other country in Africa in terms of sheer wilderness, formidable landscapes and volume of wildlife. At Natural High, we have travelled all over the country, worked in some of its best Tanzania safari camps and lodges and flown all over as bush pilots so we feel qualified to venture such opinions.
