3 Days Amboseli National Park’s Wild Wonders

Just at the base of Mount Kilimanjaro, Tawi Lodge offers a stunning retreat within a private concession, just a short ten-minute journey from Amboseli National Park’s entrance. This eco-conscious lodge presents breathtaking vistas from its communal spaces and elegantly designed cottages. Guests can enjoy the luxury of romantic four-poster beds, exquisite ensuite bathrooms featuring Victorian baths and showers, cozy fireplaces, and personal minibars, complemented by exclusive butler services for a bespoke experience.

Gastronomic delights are savored in the lodge’s main dining area, where dishes crafted from the freshest, locally-sourced ingredients are served amid the enchanting sounds of Africa. With a watering hole in view from the lodge’s lively bar, dining room, lounge areas, and spa, guests have the unique chance to observe wildlife without leaving the comfort of the lodge. The adventure offerings are rich and varied, including twice-daily guided safaris in 4×4 vehicles, exploratory nature and camel walks, and the unique experience of fly camping.

Tortilis Camp draws its name from the distinctive Acacia Tortilis, the flat-topped, umbrella thorn tree, and is gracefully perched on a hill within one of Amboseli’s Acacia Tortilis woodland areas. Situated within a private conservancy bordering the national park, the camp offers a range of activities, including game drives, guided walks, sundowner experiences, and bush meals, conducted both within the national park and the conservancy, providing guests with an exclusive wilderness encounter.

The camp’s tents are generously spacious, offering a choice of king or twin beds and featuring elegant en suite bathrooms. Constructed with a commitment to natural aesthetics and thatched roofs, the main lounge, bar, and dining area provide an inviting communal space. For added privacy, the Private House and Family Tent are positioned slightly apart from the main camp on the hill and share access to a pool.

Tortilis Camp holds the distinction of being one of the pioneering eco-lodges of its size and takes great pride in operating entirely on solar power. Guests can rest assured that their stay leaves a minimal ecological footprint.
