Excellent customer service. I cannot fault them, so warm and kind. The team went above and beyond to accomodate to our needs. The chef is great, his food was delicious, healthy and wholesome. The hikes are lovely. Thank you so much for the wonderful memories Brian & co.

Deep in the outskirts of Amboseli, 8 km from Kimana town, there’s no doubt that Amboseli Camping enjoys one of the best campsite locations in Amboseli to view the magnificent Mt Kilimanjaro, the campsite is a wonderfully laid-back affair set within a fenced property of unspoilt African wilderness overlooking Mt Kilimanjaro.
Jambo, I'm Brian, and I'm a nature enthusiast since 2012 I've been to many magical destinations in East Africa for the past 10 years, I love walking in nature and I firmly believe in the possibilities that only slow tourism can give you. I have a deep passion for travel and tourism and make it my business to be a great host to my guests! I recognize that tourism is a way to strengthen the travelers understanding of the overall ecosystem and culture, I strive to make a meaningful and impactful investment in both the wildlife and the local people in the area that I operate. Karibu!
Despite being just a few minutes’ drive from local attractions, this is a real countryside site with excellent views and a peaceful, ‘wild’ ambiance excellent for families, couples & close friends. The ranch is walkable too but we recommend taking a guide so you don't get lost. Nature lovers can explore five different habitats here ranging from the dried-up bed of rivers, wetlands with springs, the savannah and woodlands. They can also visit the local Maasai community who live around the park and experience their authentic culture. How about relaxing while watching Mt Kilimanjaro from your tent? Our place overlooks the highest mountain in Africa and offers an amazing sunset views, Being close to local attractions it's an ideal weekend and holiday getaway.
