This is a gorgeous place to stay, 5 min outside the park. The tents are lovely, the staff extraordinary, the food excellent. The only complaint is that you have to buy all your drinks including even water.

This is a great place to stay in Amboseli. Located right outside the gate (less than 3 min to gate). The accommodations are great! The food and staff are great too! We had Benard as our driver and he was great as well! If you’re coming to Amboseli stay at Kibo, you won’t regret it!

We loved our stay at Kibo Safari Camp! We stayed for 5 nights and were made to feel very welcomed and at home! Dinner is amazing - there is a wood burning pizza oven and different grill stations! The bar area is beautiful and spacious. Our tent was very spacious and comfortable. It did not get cold at all, which was surprising!

Construction in lobby which is the only place the wifi works, which was very irritating. No non-dairy options for coffee and tea, not that hard to get almond, soy or rice milk. Felt like much of the staff was in training, which is not what I want to deal with. Most of the staff was very friendly. Food was ok, had vegan options. Wifi didn't work the whole first day, which is a nuisance when you are trying to download pictures from the day.

Love our stay here. The tents are very comfortable and it was a real treat to stay here. The only downside is it that its a very big place and it can sometime feel like a school camp! But otherwise it was a wonderful stay. Food, showers, bed, staff all get a big tick Internet get a cross.

Great camp. Benjamin was a great guide. Highly recommend Benjamin if you can request him. He made it his mission for us to get pictures with Mt. K and elephants. In addition Duncan and the staff were great. Highly recommend Kibo if you are visiting Amboselli.

Mooie safaritenten, heerlijk eten en super gastvriendelijke staff. Vlakbij de ingang van Amboseli NP, net buiten het NP! Wij houden meer van een kleinschaliger kamp en jammer dat je vanaf het kamp niet op een drinkwaterhole uit kijkt.
