The Ndutu calving area in the southern stretches of the Serengeti (Tanzania) is renowned for being one of the great natural wonders of Africa. It is a growing point for the great wildebeest migration, spanning a majestic landscape that transcends time. This region is the genesis of a unique wildlife phenomenon, an annual celebration of life. Can you imagine two million white-bearded wildebeests, or brindled gnu, giving birth to 400,000 calves within a period of three to four weeks? Nothing on earth compares to this spectacle. That is approximately 8000 baby wildebeest born each day.

Today, plan for a full-day game drive at Serengeti National Park.  We will start early in the morning after breakfast since it is when most of the cats are active. Serengeti is well known for being the home of carnivores due to the topography – the kopjes (rock formations), endless plains, and the Mara‐Grumeti ecosystem which facilitates interaction with prey.  Here you will witness the famous annual wildebeest migration too!  After the early morning game drive, we will get back for a hot lunch and have a short break.   Thereafter after we will proceed with the game drive until the evening, then get back for dinner at the Camp.

Early morning you will set out on another game drive in the Serengeti before continuing towards the Oldupai Gorge. The site is significant in showing the increasing developmental and social complexities in the earliest humans (hominids).  The collecting of tools and animal remains in a central area is evidence of developing social interaction and communal activity. All these factors indicate an increase in cognitive capacities at the beginning of the period of hominids transitioning to hominins—that is, to human—form and behavior.  We then travel onward to Manyara Secret Lodge.
