About the camp

About Satao Elerai.

Satao Elerai sits in the Elerai Conservation Area, set up with the local Maasai community and the African Wildlife Foundation so that tourism supports both the community and wildlife. Tents and suites face Kilimanjaro.

Game drives run in the conservation area and in Amboseli National Park, where large elephant herds gather around the swamps. Balloon safaris can be added as an extra.
