Tanzania: The Ultimate Safari Destination in February

Serengeti National Park & The Great Migration

February is one of the most exciting times to visit Tanzania, as the southern Serengeti transforms into a nursery for thousands of wildebeest calves. This is calving season, where over 8,000 wildebeest are born each day, attracting predators such as lions, cheetahs, hyenas, and leopards. The spectacle of life and survival unfolds before your eyes, making for some of the most dramatic safari encounters imaginable. For those looking to experience this natural phenomenon up close, I Artist Adventure offers exclusive guided safaris with expert trackers to ensure you witness the most thrilling moments of the migration. Best For:
  • Wildlife enthusiasts
  • Photographers
  • Adventurers seeking dramatic predator-prey action

Ngorongoro Crater: A Natural Wonderland

Dubbed the ‘Eighth Wonder of the World,’ the Ngorongoro Crater offers one of the most concentrated wildlife experiences in Africa. The lush crater floor is home to the Big Five—lion, leopard, elephant, rhino, and buffalo—along with a dazzling array of flamingos adorning the soda lake. February’s mild temperatures and lush greenery provide a striking backdrop for a game drive through this UNESCO-listed marvel. I Artist Adventure ensures a personalized experience with small-group safaris, picnic lunches in scenic spots, and expert insights into the crater’s fascinating ecosystem. Best For:
