In the early afternoon, you leave the park and head towards the Ndutu Lake, a region known for its vast plains and abundant wildlife.
You spend the night at the Wildlands Ndutu Camp, a tented camp that operates from December to March and allows you to stay close to nature.

No vaccinations are officially mandatory to enter Tanzania, except yellow fever vaccination if you are arriving from a country where this disease is endemic. In this case, the international vaccination certificate (yellow booklet) will be required upon entry.
Additionally, several vaccinations and preventive measures are strongly recommended:
antimalarial prophylaxis: Tanzania is an area at risk of malaria, preventive treatment is advised,

vaccination against rabies recommended if you will be active in rural areas or in contact with animals.
Consult a doctor or international vaccination centre before your departure.
