Your Travel Experience with Shemeji Safari team
Ngorongoro Hot Air Balloon Safari
To discover the Ndutu area is to explore a vast landscape on the southern edge of the Serengeti that offers a dramatically different safari experience depending on the season. During the Great Migration's calving season (from December to March), the plains teem with newborn wildebeest and the predators they attract, and it is during this spectacular period that a hot air balloon safari offers an unparalleled perspective as you drift silently over the enormous herds at sunrise. However, in other months, such as the current dry season in June, the great herds—and consequently the seasonal balloon operations—have migrated far to the north. A visit to Ndutu at this time reveals a more tranquil character, offering an intimate and exclusive safari focused on tracking the area's excellent resident wildlife, including its famous lion prides and cheetahs. Thus, a journey here offers either the chaotic drama of the migration in the green season or the peaceful solitude of tracking resident predators in the classic wilderness of the dry season.
