About Serian's Serengeti Mobile Kusini

An authentic Great Migration safari in the southern Serengeti
Serian's Serengeti Mobile Kusini makes the most of one of Africa's most dramatic spectacles - the Great Wildebeest Migration. This highly specialised camp is only open from 15 December to 1 May. Tucked into an acacia wood in the Kusini region of the southern Serengeti, where wildebeest are known to give birth to their young, this intimate six-tent camp displays the kind of simple elegance of old-time safaris. But the camp's personal touch is largely thanks to its charismatic owner and host - one of the regions most well-respected guides, Alex Walker.

Property details

The property

Set within a shady wooded area, the whole camp is centred around the lounge and dining tent, and fire pit and seating area. Simple but adequate, the main tent is furnished with comfortable chairs, colourful throw pillows and Moroccan rugs. Meals are served at wooden tables in the dining area, elegantly lain with white tablecloths, and scattered with lanterns by night. The fire pit opens out to the savanna; come here to re-tell and re-live the day's events over a nightcap or two.

The rooms

The six double tents at Kusini are strung along the woodland. Structures are canvas and mesh with fold-away flaps and a small shady patio to make the most of the views across the plains. Even though the entire camp is movable, the tents are smartly furnished with Moroccan rugs, local baskets and embroidered pillows. Each also has a wrought-iron double bed or two twin beds, writing desk, tea and coffee station and hanging closet. The ensuite bathrooms have flush toilets, a solid wooden basin and a bucket shower.

Activities

You'll have exclusive use of a vehicle along with your very own guide - an extraordinary offering that allows for ultimate flexibility. The camp itself is positioned on the edge of a plain where wildebeest congregate to give birth, and the sightings of the Great Migration are truly fantastic. Besides wildebeest and zebra, the region is especially good for viewing cheetah and lion, and you'll also encounter hyena, jackal and honey badger, as well as an impressive array of birds. Drives are the best way to view most of the wildlife but don't pass on a guided walk - a thrilling way to approach wildlife on foot.
