Kusini is a permanent tented camp blended seamlessly into the delicate environment of the predator-rich plains of the Serengeti. The short grass plains surrounding Kusini provide the setting for the most spectacular natural phenomenon in the continent of Africa, the wildebeest migration, during which time the hordes amass around the camp for the birthing of their young.
The migration comes with its own retinue, and the predators – lion, leopard and cheetah -plus countless zebra, gazelle and other plains game add to a diverse eco-system that evolves around you during your stay at Kusini
Perhaps surprisingly, Kusini sits exclusively in this remote region of the Serengeti, affording guests the rare opportunity for secluded game drives and intimate walking encounters well away from the principle tourist circuit. The expert guides at Kusini enhance your stay by sharing their knowledge and experience gleaned during a lifetime in the bush. Secluded amongst the rocky outcrops of this private swathe of paradise, Kusini has nine tents featuring ensuite bathrooms with showers and elevated terraces overlooking the Serengeti plains.
Between definitive wildlife encounters and classic African adventures, you may gather for elegant candlelit meals and safari tales in the dining tent, have ‘sundowner’ cocktails or picturesque banquets atop a nearby kopje, enjoy tranquil siestas watching the animals that often visit the watering hole at Kusini , or spend contemplative hours in the intimate library lounge, taking stock of what you have seen.
Kusini affords you the opportunity to enjoy a very special and private part of the Serengeti – exclusive in location, rich in experience, and luxurious in setting.
