5 Days Tanzania Luxury Safari in March: Lush Green Season Adventure

March is a "Secret Season." You witness the tail-end of the Calving Season in the Southern Serengeti. The weather is warm, the grass is vibrant green, and the predatory action is at its peak

The herds are starting to move from the Ndutu Plains toward the Central Serengeti (Seronera). You get to see the transition of the massive herds as they begin their journey north.

The "Long Rains" typically begin in late March. Most days feature sunny mornings with dramatic, short-lived afternoon thunderstorms that clear the air and make for incredible photography.

Our luxury fleet is fitted with Heavy-Duty Winches and mud-terrain suspension. We also use light-weight private aircraft to hop between camps, avoiding long drives on wet roads.

It is magnificent. The crater floor is a lush carpet of wildflowers. Because it is a "Shoulder Season," you can enjoy the Black Rhino sightings with far fewer vehicles around you.

The humidity does increase insect activity. However, our selected luxury lodges utilize Eco-Friendly Fogging and provide high-end organic repellents and screened-in "Zanzibar-style" suites.
