Klein's Camp

In the heart of Maasai territory on the north-eastern boundary of the Serengeti National Park is a private concession of 10 000 hectares, set aside for the exclusive use of Klein's Camp's 20 guests. The spectacular location of the camp on the edge of the Kuka Hills commands sweeping views across a broad valley through which the annual great migration passes.

Rare sighting of mating Tree Hyraxes!

What an unbelievable sighting!! We were watching these two Tree Hyraxes for quite a while when all of a sudden the male mounted her and we were lucky enough to witness it. It is the first time any of us had seen this very rare sighting!
