Serian Serengeti Mobile Kusini – Serengeti National Park

Serian Serengeti Mobile Kusini is a seasonal mobile camp that epitomises the raw, untamed spirit of safari. Located in the southern Serengeti from December to May, the camp is ideally situated to witness one of the most dramatic spectacles of the natural world – the calving of the wildebeest and the predators that follow in their wake. With cheetahs drawn to the abundance of vulnerable newborns, this is one of the finest places in Africa to witness high‑octane predator action in an authentic wilderness setting.

All guests enjoy exclusive use of 4wd safari vehicle and dedicated guide and spotter at Serian Camps.

Location

Kusini is also perfectly positioned to access the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, as well as the Serengeti National Park – two spectacular game-viewing areas encompassing high concentrations of cheetah, honey badger, golden-backed jackal and hyena, as well as a parade of predators feasting on the newborns.

Accommodation

The mobile camp consists of just 6 hand‑crafted canvas tents that blend seamlessly into the natural environment under the shade of tortillas trees.  Each tent offers a comfortable retreat, with proper beds, en‑suite bathrooms featuring bucket showers and flushing toilets, and private verandas overlooking the plains. The camp’s simplicity and intimacy highlight its classic safari atmosphere, while personalised service ensures guests feel welcome and cared for.

Dining

Meals at Serengeti Mobile Kusini are wholesome, hearty, and sociable. Using fresh local ingredients, the chefs prepare a variety of dishes that blend international and Tanzanian flavours. Guests can enjoy bush breakfasts at dawn, picnic lunches on game drives, and lantern‑lit dinners beneath star‑filled skies. Meals are hosted and taken en famille, and the convivial atmosphere of the dining tent and evenings around the campfire create lasting memories of staying in the wild.

Experiences

The Serengeti Kusini region is a hub of wildlife drama during the calving season. Guests can witness hundreds of thousands of wildebeest giving birth on the plains, attracting predators such as lions, hyenas, and particularly cheetahs, which thrive during this time. Private safari vehicles with expert guides allow for personalised and flexible game drives, while walking safaris and night drives add depth to the adventure. This is one of the most thrilling safari experiences in Africa, combining abundance of wildlife with the raw excitement of predator‑prey encounters.

Giving Back & Sustainability

As with all Serian camps, Serengeti Mobile Kusini operates with a strong commitment to responsible tourism. Its mobile nature ensures minimal environmental impact, and the camp is dismantled without leaving a trace. By employing local staff and sourcing from nearby communities, Serian supports regional economies and helps preserve traditional skills. Guests staying here are directly contributing to conservation efforts and the sustainable future of the Serengeti.
