Show all hotels

North of Lake Ndutu, overlooking one of the Serengeti’s most wildlife-rich areas with front-row access to the Great Migration, calving season, and outstanding predator sightings.

Ndutu is renowned for its high concentration of wildlife and exceptional predator activity. From late December to March, it becomes a key stage of the Great Migration, as thousands of wildebeest arrive on the southern plains to calve. This seasonal abundance draws predators including lion, cheetah, leopard, and hyena, creating dramatic sightings. Wetlands, marshes, and natural springs retain water year-round, sustaining wildlife and supporting the fresh grazing that continues to attract migratory herds each season.

Just Wow! What a place!
Once again, Africa Safari did it again. Africa Safari Serengeti Kusini can be described as a magical camp, off the beaten track!
Everything is new and working, the staff is fantastic, Camp Manager Nelson is phenomenal, and the migration passed by on our doorstep.
A bush camp cannot get better then this!
Thanks all, for this fantastic stay. We will be back for sure.

A magical glamping experience
A magical glamping experience between the Serengeti and Ngorongoro
We recently stayed at this lodge, and it far exceeded all our expectations. Located between Serengeti National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater area, the location is perfect for observing the Great Migration during the calving season.
Sleeping in a tent in the heart of the bush was a truly magical experience. The tents are very comfortable, well equipped, and offer an authentic touch.
The lodge is situated near the Kusini Crater and Lake Ndutu, providing ideal access to several safari areas. Every game drive was different and full of amazing wildlife sightings, making it a true paradise for birdwatching enthusiasts as well.
Peaceful, thoughtfully designed, and fully immersed in nature, this lodge is perfect for an authentic stay with great comfort, very warm and welcoming staff, and excellent cuisine. We will definitely come back!

The team at Serengeti Kusini is absolutely outstanding.
After an ankle injury, my wife had to use a wheelchair and crutches, and we were deeply moved by the level of support we received. A real highlight was when the staff surprised us with in-tent dinner room service—bringing a fully set table, including decorations, and serving all the meals we wanted directly to our tent.
Being vegetarians, we did not expect too much in terms of food, but once again they surprised us with excellent, carefully prepared dishes.
Among the team, Jacob especially stood out. He was incredibly friendly, open-minded, and always willing to share his knowledge about Tanzania, while also showing genuine interest in learning about our home country.
We have stayed in five other camps, and in all of them we were treated very well, but Camp Kusini truly stands above them all.

Absolutely perfect!
We stayed here for three days in a brand-new tent with all the comfort you could wish for. From the terrace of our tent, we could directly watch wildebeest and calves passing by during the migration.
In the surrounding area, we were able to observe lions, cheetahs, and hyenas—absolutely fantastic!
The food was very tasty, and the entire team, led by manager Nelson, took great care of us with great kindness and hospitality.
For self-drivers, the camp was not very easy to find, but that also means you stay in a very remote and peaceful part of the Serengeti, away from the crowds.
For us, it was absolutely perfect!

Warm-hearted and truly special
A very beautiful camp where you can watch wildlife right from outside your tent in the morning.
A special thank you to Yakobo Mereru, our camp guide, who welcomed us so warmly and openly. He shared many stories and explanations with us, making the experience even more meaningful. Asante sana

A truly unforgettable stay at Africa Safari Serengeti Kusini in the heart of nature. Waking up to wildlife just outside the tent was incredible. The camp is peaceful, well organized, and the staff made us feel very welcome throughout our stay. A perfect safari experience.
