Klein's Camp - Serengeti Loliondo

Klein's Camp

Loliondo Serengeti

Accommodation

Guests at Klein's Camp enjoy the overwhelming view of the rolling valley where large herds of wildlife can be seen twice a year as the annual migration rolls towards the Maasai Mara and back again.

With its luxurious leather seats, silver cutlery, candlelight, sturdy wooden floors and thick books about the Serengeti wildlife, Klein's Camp embodies the spirit of the early African explorers. The 10 stone built cottages with thatched roofs fulfil every wish a sophisticated traveller could possibly dream of. The rooms are well designed with wooden floors, private verandas and en suite bathrooms.

The central bar & dining area is large and well furnished and offers imposing views over the Kleins conservancy. There is also a swimming pool.

Location

Klein's Camp is perched just below the Kuka Hills in Loliondo. The camp's private concession covers a good 10'000 hectares and borders the remote northern Serengeti and the Maasai Mara. The land has been leased from the local Maasai community. Access to the area is restricted, so there is hardly any other people to come across apart from the guests staying at Klein's Camp.

Guests who fly into Klein's Camp use Lobo airstrip, about a 90-minute drive from camp.

Wildlife

The views from Klein's Camp over the hilly landscape of the northern Serengeti are supremely beautiful. Undisturbed by mass tourism, the region offers excellent game watching in inimitable natural surroundings.

The great migration of wildebeest and zebra is certain to delight all who visit, but guests are also able to enjoy fascinating game drives outside the migration months. The area is home a good number of resident game, notably elephant, buffalo, hippo, lion, cheetah and leopard to name just a few.

Activities

As the private concession is located outside the official park borders, the camp offers not only classic game drives, but also bush walking and night game drives.

Day trips to the Mara River and Bologonja area in northern Serengeti are possible, as well as visits to a local Maasai village.

Good to know

The Grumeti River starts its life as a small stream in the hills of southern Kenya just across the border from Klein's Camp.

Your alternatives

Permanent Camps
Permanent camps do not change location and therefore have a better infrastructure than mobile camps.

Mobile Camps
Mobile camps operate in the Serengeti and change their location two or three times a year following the Great Migration of the wildebeest and zebra. Mobile camps have a simpler, bush-like character. Although the rooms have an en-suite bathroom, there is often no running water in the rooms. Bathrooms are then equipped with a so-called bucket shower that needs to be filled with hot water by the camp team on demand.
