This was my wife's first Safari experience, but my third; it surpassed both my previous ones. Our guide, Juma, met us at the airstrip (where we had to buzz the runway first, to clear some zebras!) and incorporated a game drive from there to the camp, during which we were overwhelmed by the wildlife - all before we'd even arrived! We were met with a refreshing drink and given comprehensive information about the camp and its arrangements. We were taken to our 'tent', where our luggage had preceded us; we were impressed by the huge bed and generous bathroom. The lounge & dining area had no walls, so were open to the spectacular view, dominated by Mt Kilimanjaro (when visible, which was only mornings & evenings) above the clouds. The food was absolutely first class. The morning and evening game drives were a revelation - Juma was informative and entertaining; we saw all we wanted to see, many times over, often so close there was no need for a telephoto lens. Juma would manoevre the vehicle so that we could get our photos of elephants etc with Kilimanjaro beyond. The grounds of the camp were a delight - a swimming pool, and a vegetable garden that the staff were keen to show us round. Sundowners were the order of the day, when we could leave the vehicle as we were outside the main reserve - and a surprise bush breakfast!

This destination is remarkable. Given our travel was during the low season we still saw numerous animals whilst on safari. Martin, our tracker guide was highly knowledgeable and committed to his job. The staff were smiling and always available. Food was bountiful and Donald our waiter was attentive. Spa ladies superb. Family accommodation very spacious and comfortable. Well done.

Great place we hit it in the wet season so animals were not a common sight, that being said we saw some rare ones from a bright green chameleon (well at the moment) to a cheetah with 5 cubs. Loads of elephants, wildebeest, hyena, hippos, and lions. We are not birders but definitely an abundance of them.Our guide Ali was amazing absolutely lovely man. Grahame and Candy run a lovely lodge. Food was great, and the staff fabulous. Don’t fear the tents very homey. Water was there in abundance has they had a reverse osmosis system which was great. Candy put a nice feminine touch on every detail down to shampoo that is good for may go women. I highly recommend!!! I would make only one suggestion netting the beds.

Sitting in Nairobi Airport waiting for my flight home, I feel I must right about the six days I just spent at Tortilis Camp Elewana. Being a professional photographer, I have now visited 8 Safari lodges across SA, Tanzania and Kenya. Tortilis stands out as the one of my best experiences in Africa. It was simply magical. From the amazing vibe you get as soon as you are welcomed by Graham and Candy, to all the friendly and accommodating staff that cater to your every need. The lodge itself is perfectly located allowing game drives in both the national park and the conservancy (where the dry lake bed is located). The game drives are the best I’ve experienced led by our guide and driver John. An absolute terrific guy who has the eyes of an eagle. During our stay he was able to find us unbelievable photography opportunities each and every drive. From ostrich eggs hatching before our eyes, to cheetahs with cubs, Lions with cubs, flamingos and of course the many elephant herds. We even had the chance to meet the famous Craig! I recommend going during the dry season in order to see more wildlife. An overall spectacular experience with many great surprises I couldn’t even imagine.

Excellent camp with a great crew! Our tent was amazing and had all the conveniences as if we were in a luxury hotel room. The view from the main dining area was on top of a hill facing a small pond where we saw zebra and other animals grazing through as we were eating our delicious meals. Our safari guide, John, took good care of us and we were able to observe many elephants in their natural habitat along with other wildlife. The staff was great; we felt very comfortable here.

My favorite camp, especially in Amboseli. I’ve been here several time and each time the experience is nothing short of 5-star. Amazing hosts, great food and knowledgeable drivers like Dixon and John that really know how to find great wildlife for us photographers. They take such good care of you and the food is delicious, incorporating all my special dietary needs and requests. I highly recommend Elewana Tortillis Camp :)

Perfection! Everything about the camp is ideal. The food, the accommodations, the view and especially the staff are top notch. I really enjoyed Eunice, as she went out of her way to make everyone in our group so happy and comfortable. She was so professional and friendly and I felt like I was leaving an old friend when we departed. Dickson was our guide again this year and his depth of knowledge is incredible. He is so much fun and makes the entire experience incredibly memorable. Thank you for another fabulous vacation!

We had an hour and a half game drive en route to the hotel and saw lots of elephants (close up), wildebeest, buffalo, various gazelles, flamingos and other birds, zebras, giraffes and wart hogs. We were warmly greeted by Graeme and Candy - a delightful couple from Scotland who run this wonderful property. The room was great as was the bathroom and patio area. Our housekeeper looked after us well with early morning hot drinks and some laundry too. The food was great, buffet style for breakfast and lunch and a choice from a set menu for dinner. They’d set up for sundowner drinks on our last evening with nibbles and seats but unfortunately an unlikely downpour put an end to it, but how lovely the set up was. We also had a bush breakfast one morning which was lovely and a picnic breakfast the next morning so we could continue straight from our game drive to visit the Masai village. What an interesting and humbling experience that was. If you visit this camp I highly recommend visiting here. Dancing and talking with these lovely people and learning about how they live and how happy and healthy they are is now etched in my brain forever. Our guide for the game drives was JP who was a smashing guy and we saw all of the animals as mentioned previously. Sadly we didn’t get to see any big cats but other guests did.. it’s just how it goes sometimes. The clouds cleared on our departure to give us a decent view of Kilimanjaro which was a great farewell. Nothing negative to report at all.
