Ndutu Plains being the only place where the Wildebeests Migration herds concentrate during the months of December and March every year the area is a great spot for; game drives with a wide network of game driving tracks but also the area is exceptional because it allows off-road driving. During rainy seasons the rains can be muddy so watch out not to drive into Swampy areas during rainy day’s to avoid getting stuck because it is an area that is notorious with jeeps getting stuck in the black soils Ndutu.

Being within the Ngorongoro Conservation Authority Area Walking safaris in Tanzania are allowed on condition that you are led by an armed range supplied by the NCAA.

Ndutu is a perfect and famous bird watching area (over 400 species recorded), and being an area that allows exploring by foot, you can not ask for a better place to do bird watching than Ndutu Plains especially in months when Migratory species are in this area.
