Your accommodation will be at Amboseli Sopa Lodge. Set on 200 acres of private land and with a rustic charm all of its own, the lodge nestles in the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro, which, at almost six thousand meters, is Africa’s highest and most famous snow-capped mountain.
Amboseli Sopa Lodge is set within mature wooded gardens with a wide variety of trees and plants, which include thorn trees, acacias, fragrant frangipanis, colorful bougainvillea, and giant cacti, which all thrive in these surroundings. The gardens are also home to numerous species of birds, as well as monkeys, mongooses, squirrels, duikers, the occasional gazelle, and, once in a while, even an ever-inquisitive leopard.
Rustic, well-spaced cottages meander through the vast expanse of the mature gardens and house the eighty-three guest rooms. These are all brightly decorated with Maasai-themed wall murals, and each room has been purposely built to contain either one or two queen-sized beds, as well as a veranda.
