Once the home of the infamous ‘ man-eating lions of Tsavo’ who preyed on men constructing the railway line between Mombasa and Kampala in the 19th Century, Ngutuni sanctuary and surrounding Tsavo National Park are best known today for their fantastic variety of wildlife, including lions, cheetah, elephant, buffalo, as well as a huge variety of plains game and birdlife.

Ngutuni Lodge is spectacularly constructed from large timber poles with plunging thatched roofs and waxed timber decking; the lodge skillfully blends traditional African design with the modern comforts of a luxury lodge. From the moment you step into the reception and gaze through the open-plan restaurant to the savannah beyond, you will begin to realize why this is a special lodge.

Life at Ngutuni Lodge follows a delightful routine: early morning and afternoon are spent game viewing, as these are the best times to observe animals foraging in the surrounding savannah. 

Evenings are spent relaxing with safari companions, enjoying a sundowner overlooking the softly illuminated waterhole before a sumptuous dinner. Finally, enjoy a few quiet moments under the lit skies as you savor the lights and sounds of the African bush.
