3 Day Fly-in Safari Amboseli Sopa Lodge travels by air to Amboseli Sopa Lodge – nestles in 190 acres of wooded Masai land on the foothills of Africa’s highest mountain, Mt Kilimanjaro. The lodge is 250 kilometres from Nairobi; approximately 4 Hours Drive on tarmac and murram all-weather roads. Flying from Nairobi is approximately 40 Minutes and an Hour’s transfer time to the lodge from Amboseli Airstrip

3 Day Fly-in Safari Amboseli Sopa Lodge from Nairobi takes you to Amboseli National Park – one of the most popular National Parks in Kenya located 135 km from Nairobi. Amboseli offers an interesting contrast in appearance.

It has a somewhat dry and dusty appearance, which can be attributed to the volcanic ash that came out of Mt. Kilimanjaro when it last erupted. Mt Kilimanjaro, in fact, is located just about 25 miles away.

However, in spite of the appearance, there is a continuous supply of water that gets filtered through volcanic rocks from Kilimanjaro’s melted snow. These streams flow underground, creating lush green areas, and converge at two clear water springs in the park. Amboseli visitors mainly come to watch the huge herds of elephants. There are over 900 elephants in the Park.

The bull elephants have some of the largest tusks in all of Kenya. Amboseli wildlife includes the zebra, wildebeest, giraffe, impala, caracal and serval cat, lion, leopard, cheetah, buffalo, wild dog, and hippo.

There are also over 400 species of birds, including the bee-eater, kingfisher, African fish eagle, martial eagle and pygmy falcon. Visitors can also enjoy excellent views of Mt Kilimanjaro and Meru.

Amboseli Sopa Lodge will be your accommodation and is located in the foothills of Mt. Kilimanjaro, set on 200 acres of land, not far from where Ernest Hemingway lived whilst writing his novel, “The Snows of Kilimanjaro.”
