Elewana Tortilis Camp Amboseli

With just 10% of Amboseli National Park typically frequented by safari vehicles, Elewana Tortilis Camp offers a unique experience with its prime location on the park’s western edge—far from the usual eastern gate lodges. Guests enjoy almost exclusive access to Amboseli and private game drives within the 30,000-acre Kitirua Conservancy, part of the park’s western ecosystem. The camp features an elite fleet of custom-designed safari vehicles and highly skilled guides, all with deep knowledge of the region, ensuring an exceptional and intimate safari experience.

Elewana Tortilis Camp’s walking guides are Maasai locals who have been traversing the plains since childhood. Leaving the vehicle behind, guests are invited to explore the finer details of the environment, tracks, dung beetles, and micro-ecosystems. The guides share their rich knowledge of the terrain, traditional uses of wild herbs and barks, and insights into Maasai culture, offering an enriching and intimate experience with nature.

"Sundowners" are a cherished safari tradition—after a day of exploring, guests pause to enjoy the breathtaking sunset, often with a gin and tonic in hand, soaking in the serene beauty of the African landscape.

Relax in the cool waters during the heat of the day! Nestled within lush green gardens and shaded by palms and Acacia Tortilis trees, the pool is a serene haven for tropical birds. Enjoy bar service and board games while soaking in the peaceful surroundings.

A safari is not just an adventure, it's also a chance to unwind. It offers a refreshing break from today's fast-paced world, allowing you to relax and reconnect with nature.

In the heart of Masai country, Elewana Tortilis Camp offers visits to local Maasai homesteads, where you can experience their traditional way of life. The Maasai live in semi-permanent huts known as Manyattas, which are constructed by the wives using a mix of cattle dung and grass, reflecting the community's deep connection to nature.
