Nestled in the foothills of Kilimanjaro, hidden beneath a copse of giant acacia trees and beside a gently flowing natural spring lies Amboseli Serena Safari Lodge. With Kilimanjaro's 6,000-metre-high snow-capped peaks rising behind the lodge and presiding over the landscape, the setting is nothing short of magnificent. The lodge has 96 beautifully appointed rooms and a swimming pool filled with fresh water from a spring flowing from Mount Kilimanjaro.
The Amboseli National Park park covers several variations of terrain and thus attracts diverse species of game. Along with elephant, buffalo, giraffe and hippo, there are interesting smaller mammals such as black-backed jackals and the delightful bat-eared fox. Over 47 different kinds of birds of prey have been recorded here, including two rarities - the Taita falcon and the Southern Banded harrier eagle. You may even be lucky to see an elusive lion.
Full day spent at Amboseli Serena Safari Lodge enjoying morning and afternoon game viewing activities. Activities on offer include game drives; sundowners on Observation Hill; traditional feasts and tribal dancing overlooking a waterhole where big game gather; musical evenings and visits to the traditional manyattas of the Amboseli Masai.
