Sinya Camp - Kilimanjaro, Tanzania

Sinya Camp is a permanent luxury tented camp located on the Western side of Mount Kilimanjaro, immediately across the border from Amboseli National Park. The border has no fence so many of the animals routinely move from one area to the other.

The ten large tents have double beds and en suite facilities and are beautifully situated under acacia trees and spaced far apart from one another to ensure privacy. The view from your tent is of the snow capped summit of Mount Kilimanjaro and there is no better sight in Africa. This camp has gone straight into our "Top 5 Destinations in Africa." The camp is located in a private Maasai concession and is exclusive to Kibo Safaris - you won't find this camp in any brochures!

The beauty of this exclusivity is seen in many ways; you are able to enjoy the privacy of the concession without being interrupted by other tour operators - you will not see the mini vans one constantly tries to avoid in Amboseli and other areas. As you are not in a National Park night drives and guided walks are allowed and encouraged, and, possibly most excitingly, the Maasai people are still quite unspoiled by our presence and if you visit their boma they are as interested in you and your appearance as you are in them - an increasingly rare phenomenon in our ever shrinking world.

There is a lot of game here; we saw many elephant, lion, hippo, zebra and various antelope. These are not the vast herds that you will see in the Serengeti but the experience of seeing these fabulous animals from your private game vehicle, without hordes of fellow tourists, is one that you will never forget.
