TAASA Migration Camp Relocates for 2025–2026 Season to Ndutu, Serengeti: What You Need To Know

Published on December 2, 2025

TAASA Luxury Lodges & Camps has successfully completed its first seasonal relocation of the TAASA Migration Camp. After an exceptional inaugural season in Kogatende, the camp has now moved to Ndutu, a region known for its iconic wildlife experiences, just in time for the 2025/2026 green season. The camp reopened on 1 December 2025 and will remain operational until 31 March 2026, aligning with the southward movement of the Great Migration.

This relocation marks a key milestone for TAASA Luxury Lodges & Camps, which has carefully timed its move to match the movements of the herds and ensure guests experience the best of the migration season. The Ndutu region, located between the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Conservation Area, offers some of East Africa’s most stunning landscapes and wildlife, especially during the green season, when the plains rejuvenate following the rains.

A Successful Northern Season in Kogatende

The first half of the year, spent at Kogatende in the northern Serengeti, delivered an outstanding season for the camp. Since its opening on 4 July 2025, the camp has welcomed guests with its combination of African-chic interiors, family-oriented activities, and expert safari guides. Visitors enjoyed the awe-inspiring spectacle of the migration, including dramatic river crossings and sightings of predators such as lions, cheetahs, and hyenas. The camp received exceptional feedback, with guests praising both the camp’s luxury offerings and the extraordinary safari experiences it facilitated.

Perfect Timing with the Great Migration’s Southward Movement

The seasonal move to Ndutu is strategically planned to coincide with the migration’s movement southward. December marks the arrival of early herds of wildebeest and zebra, seeking fresh grass in Ndutu’s lush plains. This period also heralds the beginning of the calving season, which peaks in late January and February. During this time, guests at the camp can witness an exciting mix of early migration arrivals, predator activity, and the rejuvenated landscapes, making it an ideal time for photography and wildlife viewing.

The Ndutu region is renowned for its spectacular wildlife experiences. As the herds begin to give birth, the area becomes a prime location for spotting young calves, as well as the predators that follow them. The lush, green landscape following the rains adds to the charm, with an abundance of birdlife and vibrant foliage, offering guests a truly unique African safari experience.

Migration-Focused Safari Excellence

The newly relocated TAASA Migration Camp continues to offer exceptional game viewing for travellers seeking direct access to the Great Migration. Designed for guests looking to experience the migration in one of the world’s most celebrated wildlife destinations, the camp provides front-row access to wildlife sightings, while maintaining the luxury and comfort for which TAASA is known.

Guests will enjoy guided game drives in open-sided 4×4 vehicles, with the option to reserve private vehicles for a more personalised experience. The camp’s family-friendly offerings, including interconnecting tents and an emphasis on immersive bush activities, ensure that all ages can enjoy the experience. Additionally, the camp’s expert guiding team, led by FGASA-trained guides, ensures that each safari is educational, ethical, and deeply enriching.
