Ndutu Area
The area is particularly renowned during the calving season, when thousands of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles give birth on the open plains, attracting predators and offering dramatic wildlife viewing. Ndutu is also special because off-road driving is permitted, unlike most areas of the Serengeti, allowing visitors to get closer to the action.
