Later you will return to the village and bike through age-old banana plantations and visit the Makonde tribe, famous throughout East Africa for their woodworking skills & craftsmanship. Of course, you cannot leave the village before enjoying genuine Tanzanian hospitality when they offer you a true local lunch. Later, proceed to Ngorongoro, at the edge of the crater, you will have your first glimpse of what awaits you the following day – glistening streams, open grassland and an infinite number of animals.

Lake Ndutu is alkaline, like most of the other Rift Lakes, however the water is still drinkable and used by a wide array of local wildlife. Ndutu is also known as home to cheetahs, lions, leopards and other big cats. Driving off the main road in search of wildlife is what makes Ndutu quite a special game area; arrive at the lodge for dinner and overnight at Siringit Migration Camp

Day 5 | Great Migration & Calving Season - Stunned by the previous day spotting of the migration, today, your entire day is dedicated to see the best of Ndutu. Mornings and evenings are always the best time to view animals! During game drives you will be able to see abundant wild animals and see the fertile plains turn into calving grounds and nursery for the great migration as well as hordes of predators preying on vulnerable young wildebeest. In the evening, return to your lodging for evening leisure, dinner and overnight at Siringit Migration Camp This concludes the portion of the trip in Tanzania.

Testimonials

"You will never have enough time. You will never have enough money. You will never have enough of what it is that is holding you back. Just say YES!"
~Shellee Allen
Meeting friends of Rebecca who live and work in Uganda added depth to the trip and reassured me that there are wonderful people around the world with goals such as mine; fellowship thru peace, building better communities and elevating each other. Our accommodations were amazing, from staying at Wildwaters Lodge, the birthplace of the Nile, to the Nkuringo Bwindi Gorilla Lodge at the edge of the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. Trecking with Gorillas is an experience I will never forget as was communing with the elephants and laughing with the baboons.

Ugandan's are a beautiful, inspiring and hard working people and your travel experiences will help support local economies, restore nature and provide quality educational opportunities for children.

Go for the beauty, but know your vacation can mean more for you and them. Mudding a a school house in a rural village and seeing the looks of joy on the faces of children who broke out in spontaneous dance is something that has left an indelible mark on my heart.

I became more compassionately aware of a culture that inspires joy, curiosity, and awe and felt that I went from a global explorer to a global citizen. 💙🌍 ~ Kristi
"In 2018, I had the opportunity to join Rebecca’s two week tour in Uganda. I was looking for a tour where I could experience the people and make connections to their experiences. It also allowed for a Safari to view Africa’s amazing animals and terrain.

The tour was well organized and full of amazing experiences. We experienced amazing cultural displays of dance and music, the trip to Murchison Falls National Park: the safari game drive, the falls, chimp trekking ... all lifetime experiences! Our driver was always helpful, visible, informative of local history, customs and wildlife. Our contributions to the indigenous village and school were incredible, valuable and unforgettable.

As a result of this tour, I returned to Uganda in 2019 as a volunteer to further my involvement. Change: it has opened my eyes to what I can do for others. Connection: I have made lifelong friends. Challenge: How will I give back to society using the skills and resources I have?

Yes, Change, Connection and Challenge. Go experience and have your heart opened by the people, culture and landscape of Uganda."
