4 Day Fly-In Serengeti – Calving Season

A 4-day fly-in calving safari is one of Tanzania’s most thrilling short safaris, designed to immerse you in the dramatic wildebeest calving season of the Ndutu Area and Southern Serengeti. From January to March, more than 400,000 wildebeest calves are born within weeks, drawing large predator concentrations and creating one of nature’s greatest wildlife spectacles.

Flying directly from Arusha or Zanzibar to an airstrip near Ndutu maximizes your safari time and avoids long road transfers. This gives you more hours on the ground for unforgettable game drives across the short-grass plains that nourish the migrating herds. Expect close encounters with wildebeest, zebras, lions, cheetahs, and hyenas, along with excellent photographic opportunities of newborn calves and dramatic predator-prey interactions.

This fly-in safari with Ron Adventure includes round-trip domestic flights, private 4×4 transport, park fees, and full-board stays at comfortable tented camps close to the action, ensuring a seamless and immersive Great Migration experience.

Best time to visit: The calving season runs January through March, when newborns blanket the plains and predators are most active.

Perfect for wildlife enthusiasts, photographers, and travelers seeking a short but spectacular adventure, the 4-Day Fly-In Calving Safari with Ron Adventure delivers front-row access to one of Africa’s most unforgettable natural events.
