KLEIN'S
Klein’s Camp features just 10 cottages of local rock and thatch with rich wooden floors and classic interiors. Each cottage has an en suite bathroom and private veranda with breathtaking views. The Camp is situated deep in the heart of the game-rich northern Serengeti in Tanzania – right off the beaten tourist track but on the migration route.
A 10 000-hectare private wildlife concession is leased from our Maasai landlords and offers the ultimate personal Tanzania safari. Klein’s Camp is set on the edge of the Kuka Hills, commanding breathtaking views of the valley. Game walks, night drives and following game offroad is permitted within Kleins private concession area.
Each cottage features rich wooden floors and serene, classic interiors. From the private verandas and spacious guest areas, a diversity of resident wildlife, including huge elephant herds, can be viewed in the valley below. The camp has a large, beautifully furnished bar/sitting area, swimming pool and African crafts shop featuring locally made Maasai crafts. Fresh vegetables picked from the camp’s shamba – an organic African garden – accompany wholesome Pan-African meals. Dinners are served in the main dining area, which is graced by a large open fireplace, or enjoyed in a spectacular clearing in the African bush.
Safari Activities
• Game drives: Expert rangers and guides will lead you on interpretive game-drives in open 4×4 safari vehicles in Klein’s private wildlife concession and into the Serengeti National Park – a photographer’s dream. Action-packed night game-drives are unique to Tanzania, offering guests extraordinary game viewing from lions or leopards hunting to an array of nocturnal species such as genet, civet and owls etc
• Interpretive bush walks: Klein’s is the only camp in Tanzania to offer exciting one- to three-hour wilderness walks led by skilled guides and Maasai trackers. Views on the crest of the Kuka Hills are exceptional – thousands of buffalo and elephant herds may be seen grazing in Klein’s private concession or in the Serengeti to the west. Learn more about Maasai medicines made from trees, plants and seeds, and view spectacular birdlife including the magnificent Verreaux black eagle.

• Bush banquets: Enjoy exciting bush breakfasts, sundowners, and romantic bush dinners on the quartzite hills with magnificent views over the northern Serengeti.
This camp is often combined with its sister camps of Grumeti River in the Western Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater Lodge and Lake Manyara Tree Lodge in an exciting Northern Tanzania Safari Circuit.
