About the lodge

About Ol Tukai Lodge.

Ol Tukai Lodge stands in the middle of Amboseli National Park, at the foot of Kilimanjaro, in one of the best places in Africa to watch elephants. Most chalets look over the wetlands or the mountain.

Alongside game drives, guests can go out at night with a park warden, visit an elephant research centre or a Maasai village, and take bird walks around the grounds. Two rooms are built for guests with limited mobility.

When to go

The lodge through the year.

December to March

A high season for wildlife viewing, according to KWS, with short grass and mostly sunny weather.

April to June

The long rains. KWS says animals can be harder to see and many park roads may need four-wheel drive.

July to December

The other high season in KWS guidance, with short grass that makes wildlife easier to see. Sightings are never guaranteed.
