Amboseli National Park

Located in southern Kenya, Amboseli is one of Africa’s most recognisable safari landscapes, dominated by views of Mount Kilimanjaro and open plains dotted with acacia woodland and wetlands.

The park is particularly known for its large elephant herds and excellent photographic opportunities, with wildlife often framed against the dramatic backdrop of Africa’s highest mountain.

Camp One: Angama Amboseli

Set within the private Kimana Sanctuary, Angama Amboseli offers an intimate and design-led safari experience. The lodge is positioned in one of Kenya’s most important elephant habitats, home to some of Africa’s last great “Super Tusker” elephants.

Spacious suites combine canvas, concrete and natural textures, with wide verandahs overlooking the surrounding wilderness. The atmosphere is calm, private and deeply connected to the landscape.

• 3 Nights
• Private Kimana Sanctuary access
• Exceptional elephant encounters
• Views of Mount Kilimanjaro

Activities include game drives across Amboseli and the sanctuary, guided walking safaris and cultural experiences with the Maasai community, creating a well-rounded and immersive safari experience.

Maasai Mara

The Maasai Mara is one of Africa’s most celebrated safari destinations, forming part of the greater Serengeti ecosystem. Rolling savannahs, acacia-dotted plains and the Mara River create a landscape rich in wildlife year-round.

The region is particularly known for predator sightings and the annual Great Migration, when vast herds of wildebeest and zebra move through the ecosystem.

Camp Two: Angama Mara

Perched high above the Maasai Mara, Angama Mara offers one of the most dramatic views in Africa, overlooking the plains far below. The lodge combines contemporary design with a strong connection to the landscape.

Glass-fronted tented suites provide uninterrupted views across the Mara, while the lodge’s elevated position creates a sense of space and exclusivity.
