Visit Olduvai Archaeological Site

Where humanity began!

Olduvai Gorge is located in the Great Rift Valley, South-East of the Serengeti National Park, in the vicinity of Lake Masek, and is accessible from the Ndutu or Naabi area; it forms part of the Serengeti Ecosystem and here, from December to April, you can view herds of wildebeests and zebras during the Great Migration. What makes Olduvai truly unique are the artifacts that have been discovered over the years, thanks to the wise work of archaeologists and paleoanthropologists. In fact, hundreds of fossilized bones and stone tools belonging to our ancestors have been found in what is the most important archaeological site in Tanzania, and one of the most significant of the entire African continent.
