Tortilis Camp, one of the larger camps in the Amboseli area, has a good reputation for providing a very comfortable and rather luxurious stay while visiting this iconic region. The camp is located in an acacia tree woodland area with spectacular views of Africa’s highest mountain. The lodge has access to a private 30,000-acre concession area, which allows you to escape the more popular crowds of the park while also allowing you to enjoy night drives.
There are 16 very spacious en-suite tents, each with an en-suite bathroom and a large verandah with views of Mt. Kilimanjaro. Another fantastic addition to this family-friendly safari camp is the new family tent and private house. The family tent has a double en-suite bedroom, a twin en-suite bedroom, and a large private verandah. The private house has one en-suite double bedroom, one en-suite triple bedroom, and a large living/dining room with a verandah. The family tent and the private house share a swimming pool.
Tortilis Camp has a large dining room with views of Mt. Kilimanjaro, where guests eat at their own tables. Before dinner, canapes are served in the bar and lounge, where their homegrown salads and vegetables are served.
Elephants are abundant in this area, and it is home to elephant families that have been closely studied for over 25 years by a very interesting researcher named Cynthia Moss. The guides at the camp are well-versed in elephant behavior and are eager to share the habits and characteristics of the few elephants they have spent time getting to know over the years. The Research Centre is a very interesting activity that you can pre-arrange to visit and will provide you with more information about the world’s largest land animal.
