About Ndutu Mobile camp – Tanzania bush camps

This Camp is Located in 

Ndutu Mobile Camp, operated by Tanzania Bush Camps, offers a unique and immersive safari experience in the heart of the southern Serengeti ecosystem. The camp is strategically positioned in the Big Marsh area of Ndutu, a prime location for witnessing the Great Wildebeest Migration during the calving season. From December to March, thousands of wildebeest give birth in the nutrient-rich plains of Ndutu, attracting a variety of predators such as lions, cheetahs, hyenas, and leopards, making it one of the most action-packed safari destinations.

Unlike permanent lodges, Ndutu Mobile Camp is a seasonal tented camp, meaning it moves with the migration to ensure guests have front-row seats to nature’s most dramatic spectacles. Despite its mobility, the camp offers an excellent balance between adventure and comfort, providing spacious en-suite tents, warm hospitality, and fine dining experiences in the heart of the African wilderness. The intimate size of the camp ensures personalized service, making it ideal for couples, families, and wildlife enthusiasts seeking an authentic Serengeti experience.
