SIGNATURE TANZANIA PRIVATE SAFARI • PREVIOUS Four full days will be spent exploring the Southern-most limits of the Serengeti National park in the heart of the Serengeti-Ngorongoro ecosystems seeking the area’s abundant wildlife – including its famous, mind boggling numbers of migrating white bearded wildebeest and zebra. Each year around February/March in southern Serengeti and Ngorongoro conservation area the great herds of the migrating wildebeest will drop their calves, it is estimated that approximately 750,000 wildebeest synchronize their birthing with all calves being born within a three-week period. This natural phenomenon draws the attention of predators and it is quite simply a wildlife enthusiasts and photographer’s paradise. This safari will focus on photographing the wildebeest migration during their birthing season. Everyone should have the opportunity once in their lifetime to stand on the great plains of the Serengeti and the rolling grasslands of Masai Mara witnessing one of the last major migrations on earth and to stand on the edge of the Ngorongoro Crater in awe. Mix this with a few days in Victoria Falls or Gorilla tracking in Rwanda or a few nights in Zanzibar and luxury accommodations of authentic Africa of days gone by, and you have more than hundreds of great images, but an experience of a lifetime. BEST TIME TO VISIT Jan thru March June thru Aug Oct thru Dec
