Maasai Simba Camp
Emali-Loitokitok Rd, 00400 Amboseli, Kenya – Great location - show map
This is a Maasai community-run camp that has some very friendly Maasai staff. They provided very good services at modest costs. The camp is semi-rustic and has running water and shower facilities in the cabins and for those who stay in tents. The camp sits by a river and by a Maasai village. There is lots of wildlife around the camp such as zebra, giraffes, wild beasts and antelopes that you can see with a half day nature walking Maasai guide, dressed in traditional wear. The camp is gated to keep wild animals out. I also took part in an exceptional guided game drive in Amboseli Park which has outstanding views of Mt, Kilimanjaro, and just about any big African wildlife that you can imagine. Our guide Tom was extremely well trained and knowledgeable. He was excellent in spotting wildlife and finding opportunities for close photographs.
Located in the heart of the Maasai country, Maasai Simba Camp is located 22 miles from Amboseli National Park and offers stunning views of the African Savannah and the legendary Mt. Kilimanjaro. Whether you dreamed of walking with giraffes and/ or Maasai warriors across the African landscape, Maasai Simba Camp offer the exclusive experience. The camp features accommodations, a restaurant, an outdoor swimming pool, a bar and a garden. Rooms include a private bathroom and free toiletries. WiFi and private parking is available for free. Guests can enjoy various activities including Safari to Amboseli National Park, bush-walking Safari, sundowners, opportunity to visit with Maasai tribal elders, village school, and nearby Maasai villages. Additional fun activities include archery, cycling, spear throwing, and more. We speak your language!
