Tanzania Safari FAQs
Calving season is the time when thousands of wildebeest give birth in the Serengeti. It is special because it attracts a high number of predators, offering some of the best wildlife-viewing opportunities and dramatic natural moments.
This itinerary typically includes top safari destinations such as the Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire National Park (depending on the tour operator). Each location offers unique wildlife and scenery.
You can expect to see wildebeest herds, zebras, predators like lions and hyenas, and many other species. This is also a great time to see newborn animals and predator-prey action.
For a luxury safari in Central and Southern Serengeti, you can pack comfortable clothing, walking shoes, and personal necessities (involving medicines and toiletries), necessary electronics, a camera, insect and mosquito repellent, travel documents, and personal identification.
