Serengeti Under Canvas
The locations of these migratory camps are carefully plotted to coincide with the documented movements of the annual Great Migration as it traverses the Serengeti plains. Having secured some of the Serengeti’s best semi-permanent campsites, we are able to bring our Serengeti Under Canvas guests as close as possible to the migration or resident game. These campsites are all prebooked for &Beyond’s use, allowing us tremendous flexibility in moving our camps according to the expected migration movements. |

It was at 9am we were out for the drive and my guests were dying to see the pride of lions, so we went to Muru Koppies and I was busy scanning around, eventually we came across this exciting Royal family right on the big rocks, watching over their Kingdom.
My guest could not believe that they could see them on the high elevation like that.

We were driving throught the Serengeti when we saw about 15 Banded mongoose together. As we got closer, we noticed that they had been scavenging on a Wildebeest carcass. I have never seen or heard of that before but as they say, there's a first time for everything. Nature always has surprises.

 We were trying to find leopard in the rocky areas when we came across a klipspringer on the rock. As we stopped the vehicle, another one jumped up and greeted the other one. Klipspringer male and females in East Africa have been known to both have horns. Look in the photo and you can clearly see that they do. Very interesting in the bush.

 We were waiting for wildebeest to cross the Mara river when we noticed a herd of elephants coming towards the river. They came down, drank water and then they crossed the river. All the adults completely surrounded the youngsters, protecting them from the crocodiles in the area. Its always great to see how animals care for their young.

 We came across these crocodiles that had killed two wildebeest during a crossing. About 5 crocodiles were all feeding off one of the wildebeest at the same time. One of the crocodiles would bite and then roll to get a chunk of meat off and then the others would have a turn. It was amazing to see how slowly and patiently these animals feed.

 We had just arrived at the airstrip on our very first day on safari when, on our way to Camp #1, we passed a pool with a lone hippo and lone croc in it. The croc had just killed a zebra that was drinking at the pool and the hippo, disturbed by the action started pulling the zebra away from the croc. Amazing for our first ten minutes in the bush!
