Whereabouts.

We are located on a private conservancy of 3,000 acres, just five minutes from Kimana Gate, the eastern entrance to Amboseli National Park, at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro (5,895m) – the worlds’ largest free-standing mountain. Staying at Tawi, you get the best of both worlds, a private conservancy and swift access to the one of Kenya’s most unique national parks.
