Beach Safari made our dream trip to Africa a reality! The website was so easy to use, and the detailed descriptions of each package helped us choose the perfect honeymoon getaway. From the moment we booked, everything was seamless—from the romantic beachfront villa in Zanzibar to the thrilling safari in Tanzania. It was truly the adventure of a lifetime, and we can’t wait to book our next trip!
Africa Safari South Serengeti
Perfectly situated within the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, with convenient access to the Crater, and on the south side of Lake Ndutu, just outside the Serengeti National Park. This is truly the best of both worlds!
Relax in Style in a Beautiful Environment Close to Lake Ndutu
This area is famous for the calving season of the Great Migration, an absolute highlight of the annual wildebeest migration. The short rains in November and December create nutrient-rich pastures for the wildebeest, which remain in the vicinity until the end of the long rains and most calves are born in January and February. Whilst the open grassy plains offer them some safety, these young wildebeest attract hungry predators, such as lions, leopards, cheetahs, and hyenas. The area around Lake Ndutu is also famous for being home to 6 species of big cats (lion, cheetah, leopard, serval, African wild cat, and caracal) which are present throughout the year.
