Ang’ata Migration Ndutu Camp

This seasonal, mobile camp is perched above marshland, just southwest of Lake Ndutu, giving it an excellent location for viewing the wildlife passing below. The lake is less than 1 kilometer away, Lake Masek is also nearby, and the Ndutu Airstrip is conveniently close. Each February and March, the wildebeest gather in the short-grass plains – the ‘Shamba Maharagi’ – easily reachable from Ang’ata Migration Ndutu Camp.

You can drive the 335 kilometers (a seven-hour journey) from Arusha City to Ang’ata Migration Ndutu Camp.

Suppose that sounds like too much time on bumpy roads. The alternative is to take an internal morning flight from Arusha or Kilimanjaro Airport to Ndutu Airstrip, which is only a 60-minutes flight and a 30-minutes drive from the airstrip to Ang’ata Migration Ndutu Camp.

The communal canvas lounge is the focal point of the camp, a great place to meet for a drink and relax in the comfortable sofas while your cameras and phones are recharged at the power points. Help yourself to a hot drink while keeping one eye out through the mesh windows: you don’t want to miss any wildlife action while you chill out!

It is useful to arrive at the camp with sufficient cash to pay for extra drinks and staff gratuities. Banknotes such as 5-dollar, 10-dollar, and 20-dollar bills are best. Poor network coverage in the park may mean the card machine is not always working. Most of the time, you can use US Dollars in Tanzania, particularly in tourist areas, and major credit cards are accepted at most hotels, lodges, and camps. However, we advise having some local currency on you if you want to purchase from a local shop. Major towns and airports have forex bureaus where you can exchange most major currencies such as US Dollars, British Pounds, Euros, etc.
