About this tour
Best Time to Visit the Ndutu Area
- Prime Time: Late December to March The best time to visit the Ndutu Area is during the prime time, which is late December to March. This period is when the Great Wildebeest Calving Season takes place, and it is an incredible spectacle to witness hundreds of thousands of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles giving birth in the short grass plains of Ndutu. This event also attracts predators such as lions, leopards, cheetahs, and hyenas, providing a great opportunity to observe dramatic predator-prey action.
