Tortilis Camp

Tortilis is located just outside the Amboseli National Park, near the Tanzanian border and overlooked by the snow capped north face of Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest mountain. This is one of Kenya’s most beautiful game parks and is wildlife rich, yet it is only a 45 minute flight from Nairobi.

Accommodation & Facilities
Tortilis is a luxury tented camp with a swimming pool and 18 large guest tents with adjoining bathrooms (including hot and cold running water) large comfortable beds, electric lighting, a large veranda and a cool thatched roof.

Wildlife & Activities
The Amboseli swamps, formed from the Kilimanjaro run off water, are the place to find much of the large elephant population for which Amboseli is famous. Tortilis Camp organizes morning and afternoon game drives into the park to view the elephants as well as zebra, buffalo and wildebeest; you may also spot some of the predatory cats such as lion or cheetah. The community area outside the park provides good walking safaris led by a local Masai guide who will point out much of local interest.  For example, on a nature walk you will learn about the medicinal uses of  local plants, and  perhaps you will  be shown how to make a toothbrush from a freshly cut tree branch!
