Stuart is an award-winning travel journalist covering safari, trekking and conservation in Kenya and Tanzania for the Lonely Planet, Rough Guides, BBC, Bradt Travel Guides, amongst many others. He is the author of Walking With The Maasai, a journey through some of Kenya's lesser-visited Maasai lands.
If you prefer to stay within Amboseli National Park, I'd recommend Ol Tukai Lodge which is fairly luxurious but at around USD $300 per person per night it's decent value – you can also see Mt Kilimanjaro from the bar! It's a good choice for families and they offer a range of packages including transfers from Nairobi.

Safari in Kenya

My first Kenya safari was in 1994 and I’ve been coming back almost every year since in my role as a travel journalist and guidebook author. This is the original home of the safari and, in my view, it’s still one of the finest safari destinations in Africa.

Safari in Amboseli National Park

Amboseli National Park is the postcard park of most Kenya safari itineraries.

Kenya besides safari

The most popular add-on to a safari is to throw in a bit of sun and sand time on Kenya’s delicious Indian Ocean coastline. Direct flights link most of the main national parks and reserves with Diani and Malindi beaches.
