Perfectly sited in a cluster of
kopjes, Kusini is a permanent tented camp blended seamlessly into the
delicate environment of the predator-rich plains of the Serengeti. The
surrounding short grass plains 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.
Perhaps surprisingly,
Kusini sits exclusively in this remote region of the Serengeti,
affording guests the rare opportunity for secluded
game drives
well away from the principle tourist circuit. Kusini's expert guides
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's nine
tents feature
ensuite bathrooms
with showers and elevated terraces overlooking the Serengeti plains.
Few properties pay homage to the surrounding environment with the same
breathtaking effect as Kusini, effortlessly ensuring an exclusive
proximity to the Africa that you have come to see, far from the crowds
that might be expected to throng to so unique a destination.
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 Kusini's
waterhole, or spend contemplative hours in the intimate
library lounge,
taking stock of what you have seen.
Kusini is your own Serengeti –
exclusive in location, rich in experience, and luxurious in setting.
