About Ol Tukai Lodge

Close Panel

Ol Tukai Lodge is located in the heart of Amboseli National Park facing the mighty Mt Kilimanjaro.

The fenced lodge has 80 luxury chalet-style rooms, all with great views of the vast wetlands or Mt Kilimanjaro. The rooms are comfortable and have en-suite private bathrooms and individual terraces. The rooms are set in a lovely garden with paved walkways which are lit by laterns at night.

The Elephant Bar is located in the main area and serves a variety of cocktails, fruit punches and refreshing smoothies, all while enjoying the view over-looking Mt Kilimajaro. The elephants also come fairly close to the fence line so you can enjoy a spot of game watching from the comfort of your lounge chair.

Meals are served in the dining hall accompanied by true Africa hospitality and entertainment is provided by local Maasai Morans, theme nights are a regular attraction.

The lodge has swimming pool area with sun loungers, also to the backdrop of the mountain. There is also a selection of wellness treatments and massages offered.

Best time

Kenya's main rainy season runs from April until the beginning of June. There is also a short rainy season in November. Amboseli is a good year round park as the main draw is Mt Kilimanjaro and the numerous elephants which are there year round. The concentration of wildlife does increase around the waterholes during the dry seasons ie. December - March and June - October.

Inclusions

Game drives.

Meals

Full board.

We hope the following will give you a rough idea of costs. These are quoted per person based on twin share for two people, without international flights but including internal flights. We’ve used good standard accommodation throughout. There are nearly always ways to spend more money than we’ve suggested (!), but these prices show a good and realistic range for each type of trip.

International flights will add from about £400 to £800 depending on the season and route (unless the airlines have special offers). Kenya combines well with Tanzania or Uganda.

For each accommodation on this website you will find an indication of the price. The bands are based on the price per person per night at peak season and are represented by the following values for this country:
	£50 to £150

Tribes Advisor

The lodge has wonderful views of the mountain, even with the fences, and sipping a cocktail from the upstairs Elephant bar is a great way to relax and enjoy the wilds of Amboseli. It also didn’t feel as though there were 80 rooms, it has a nice feel to it.
