Ndutu African Safari Camp

Welcome to Africa Safari South Serengeti, where the thrill of the African wilderness meets the comfort of well-appointed accommodations. Located in a prime spot straddling the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and the Serengeti National Park, this camp offers guests an exceptional opportunity to experience the Great Migration’s calving season, where thousands of wildebeest give birth in the lush, green plains from January to February.

The camp, established with a focus on providing an authentic yet comfortable safari, is designed to blend seamlessly with its surroundings. With 15 accommodations split between 9 Safari Comfort and 6 Luxury Glamping options, Africa Safari South Serengeti caters to different preferences and budgets while ensuring everyone enjoys the breathtaking views of Lake Ndutu and the surrounding Serengeti plains.

Each tent is thoughtfully decorated and elevated on platforms for safety and visibility, offering guests a front-row seat to the natural drama of the Serengeti. Here, you can witness the cycle of life unfold with the migration, while predators like lions, leopards, and cheetahs roam the open landscapes. The camp’s unfenced setting means wildlife might wander close, enhancing the safari experience.

The ethos of Africa Safari South Serengeti is to provide a back-to-nature experience with the comforts of modern amenities. The camp’s commitment to eco-friendliness is evident through its use of solar energy and the encouragement of sustainable practices among its guests.

Location:

Africa Safari South Serengeti is strategically located near the Ngorongoro Crater and on the southern edge of Lake Ndutu within the Serengeti National Park. This placement is ideal for those looking to explore both the crater’s diverse ecosystems and the vast plains of the Serengeti. The camp is accessible via a flight from Arusha to Grumeti airstrip, followed by a short transfer, or by a scenic 6-7 hour drive from Arusha for those who wish to soak in the landscape journey.

The area is particularly renowned during the calving season of the Great Migration, offering visitors a chance to see newborn wildebeest and the dynamics of predator-prey interactions.
