TORTILIS CAMP
Tortilis Camp is a charming, rustic tented camp, shaded by a natural forest of Acacia Tortilis thorn trees, which the camp is named after. The main feature of the camp is the view of the Amboseli plains and Mount Kilimanjaro. Tortilis Camp has won the British Airways Regional Award for Ecotourism and has been awarded a place on the Conde Nast Travellers 2005 Gold list. The camp has earned itself an international reputation for its commitment to the environment with its rustic simplicity, unobtrusive design and attention to comfort without compromising the ecosystem. Each tent is spacious with double or twin beds, leading in to a private dressing room with a modern bathroom. Each tent is raised up on a wooden deck and has a large veranda. 
This is a great place to start a safari, relax and acclimatise. The food is part of the charm: North Italian traditional recipes from the owner’s family cookbook, complimented by delicious salads and herbs grown in the camp’s own garden.
Here clients enjoy varied game viewing and can also spend time following the matriarchal elephant herds from the luxury of open sided safari Land Rovers; or walk with a trained Maasai guide, sip sundowners on top of Kitirua hill as the sun sets colouring the snows of Kilimanjaro pink, Bush breakfasts out on the plains or a visit to one of the Maasai manyattas (villages) to meet the Maasai women, watch the Morans (young warriors) dance and experience their unchanged way of life will enrich your African experience.
Excellent flight connections mean that a superb Kenya Safari Circuit could combine Tortilis Camp with Elephant Pepper or Offbeat Mara Camp in the Maasai Mara and a camp in the quieter Northern Parks such as Sabuk Camp in the Laikipia Conservancy.
