5 Days February Tanzania Private Calving Safari 2027
The 5 Days February Tanzania Private Calving Safari 2027 follows the Great Migration through Central Serengeti and the Ndutu calving plains. Travel privately from Arusha with your own KiliPori Safaris guide and 4×4 Land Cruiser.
Begin with big-cat viewing in Central Serengeti before travelling south to Ndutu and the Southern Serengeti. February is the main wildebeest calving period, bringing mothers, newborn calves, zebras and predators onto the short-grass plains.
This February 2027 Ndutu calving safari includes two nights in Serengeti, two nights near Ndutu and a final game drive inside Ngorongoro Crater. KiliPori Safaris adjusts each private game drive according to current herd locations, rainfall and wildlife reports.
