3-Day Simanjiro Plains Wildebeest Calving Safari

3 Days Simanjiro Plains, Tarangire National Park, Tanzania Serengeti Wildlife Safari 5.0/5 from 6 reviews

Overview

A seasonal safari to the Simanjiro Plains bordering Tarangire National Park, home to a separate wildebeest and zebra calving migration distinct from the more famous Ndutu calving season further west.

While most calving-season itineraries focus on the Ndutu Plains near the Serengeti, a smaller resident wildebeest and zebra population calves seasonally on the Simanjiro Plains near Tarangire, drawing predators to this less-touristed corner of northern Tanzania at a similar time of year.
