Experience The Beauty And Wildlife Of The Amboseli And Mount Kilimanjaro From The Satao Elerai Camp

Satao Elerai Camp is located in a quiet, unspoilt, unique setting on a 5 000-acre private conservation area 12 kilometres southeast of Amboseli National Park at the foot of Africa's Largest mountain, Mt Kilimanjaro.

This Elerai Camp looks down onto the Amboseli National Park in one direction and up to Mt Kilimanjaro in the other direction, giving clients what is arguably the best location of any camp in Amboseli.

One of the biggest advantages of Satao Elerai Camp is that being located on its own private conservation area, clients have the chance to view wildlife in intimate surroundings. In addition, we also offer clients the opportunity to enjoy spectacular bush sundowners, night game drives, and game walks on the conservancy, activities that are not available at the lodges located within the park.

A drawcard is its spectacular views of the Amboseli plains and majestic Mount Kilimanjaro, as well as the abundant wildlife at the lodge's water hole alongside the lodge where the ;region's abundant wildlife come to drink.

Kilimanjaro from the large verandas with comfortable day beds.

Game Walks: Elerai Conservation area is one of the best game walking areas in Kenya. The Walks are offered free of charge and allow you to experience the bush and wildlife in a completely different way. Take advantage of this special activity.

Sundowners: A sundowner with Kilimanjaro as the backdrop is something not to be missed. Few locations offer such a fantastic chance to take that perfect African sunset picture with the bonus of Kilimanjaro in the background.

Night Game Drives: Few places offer the opportunity to see the nocturnal wildlife of Africa. Night game drives allow you to see Serval Cats, Genet Cats, Civet Cats, Ardwolfs, Owls, Bushbabies and many other beautiful species that roam the bush at night. This offers a different experience and is a must for those that have never experienced it.
