Serian’s Serengeti Kusini is a seasonal tented camp which locates itself on the western edge of the vast southern Serengeti plains between december and march.
Serian’s Serengeti Kusini is a traditional seasonal tented camp offering an upmarket and old school hosting experience which is getting harder to find these days. The camp is owned by safari guide Alex Walker, and either Alex himself or one of his management team are always in camp to host guests. Although technically quite mobile and offering a close to nature bush experience, the camp is very comfortable and there is an air of quiet quality about everything from the details of the accommodation to the food and service. The guiding is always good and it is great that each set of clients automatically get their own private vehicle and guide for flexible activities. The location of the camp at Kusini allows exploration of the southern short grass plains, without staying in the very busy Ndutu region and therefore allowing a little extra exclusivity.
