About Klein’s Camp

&Beyond Klein’s Camp is an intimate luxury safari lodge set within a private 10,000-hectare concession on the north-eastern edge of the Serengeti National Park, bordering Kenya’s Maasai Mara. Perched on the forested slopes of the Kuka Hills, the camp commands breathtaking views across rolling valleys and grasslands, offering an exclusive safari experience with exceptional year-round wildlife viewing away from the crowds.

One of the Serengeti’s most established safari camps, Klein’s Camp combines vintage safari charm with the exclusivity of a private concession leased from the local Maasai community. The lodge’s stone-and-thatch architecture blends naturally into its surroundings, while warm hospitality and expert guiding create a relaxed yet refined atmosphere. Staying on a private concession allows guests to enjoy experiences not permitted in the national park, including guided bush walks, night drives and off-road game viewing, offering a more immersive safari.

01

Accommodation

Rooms

Accommodation comprises just ten spacious stone cottages, including one family cottage, each positioned for privacy and uninterrupted valley views. The cottages feature classic safari interiors with rich wooden floors, comfortable king or twin beds, en-suite bathrooms and private verandas where guests can relax while watching wildlife move across the plains below. The timeless design creates a warm and authentic safari atmosphere without compromising on comfort.

02

Food & drink

Dining

Dining at Klein’s Camp celebrates fresh, seasonal cuisine served in a variety of memorable settings. Meals can be enjoyed in the elegant dining room beside the open fireplace, beneath the stars in the bush or overlooking the concession from scenic outdoor locations. Much of the produce is sourced from the camp’s own organic vegetable garden, while carefully selected South African wines and sunset sundowners complete the experience.

03

What to do

Activities

Game drives through the private concession and neighbouring Serengeti offer outstanding opportunities to encounter the Big Five, large elephant herds and abundant resident wildlife throughout the year, while the Great Migration passes through the area seasonally. Exclusive activities include guided bush walks, night drives and authentic Maasai cultural visits, providing unique perspectives on both the wildlife and the people who call this remarkable landscape home. Balloon safaris can also be arranged for a spectacular aerial view of the Serengeti at sunrise.

Planning your stay

How Klein’s Camp fits your journey.

We would suggest three or four nights so that the concession setting is more than an overnight stop. Combine it with a national-park camp if you want two different safari environments, or with Ngorongoro for a broader northern circuit. We specify the guiding and activity arrangements for each location.

The right fit

Would Klein’s Camp suit you?

Who it suits

Travellers who want stone-cottage accommodation and a concession stay rather than a standard tented national-park camp. It is worth comparing for couples and families interested in a varied daily safari rhythm.

Things to consider

Klein’s is on a private concession on the northeastern Serengeti edge. This is a meaningful location distinction, not simply another name for the central Serengeti or a Mara River camp. Activities and access need to be checked for your itinerary.

Useful to know

Klein’s Camp FAQs.

Is Klein’s Camp in a private concession?

Yes. Its northeastern Serengeti-edge concession gives it a different context from a lodge inside the national park. We explain which areas and activities are included in your stay.

What type of rooms does Klein’s have?

Accommodation is in stone cottages with private verandas and en-suite bathrooms. A family option is available, with its configuration checked for your party.

Should we book it purely for migration crossings?

We would choose it for its concession setting and overall safari experience. If Mara River crossings are the overriding priority, compare camps positioned specifically for northern river country.

Would a second Serengeti camp add value?

Potentially, if it adds a genuinely different wildlife area and you have enough nights. We balance that variety against the transfer time and the benefit of staying longer with one guiding team.
