Campi ya Kanzi

An eco-friendly safari lodge offering wildlife viewing and Maasai cultural experiences within the Chyulu Hills overlooking Mount Kilimanjaro.

Tips from the community

Within the shadows of Mount Kilimanjaro lies Campi Ya Kanzi: a boutique eco-lodge in Southern Kenya known for its incredible wildlife spotting, natural beauty, and eco responsibility. The entire lodge was constructed with sustainable, local materials like lava rocks and thatched grass roofs. No soil (besides the foundation) was removed and not even a single tree was cut in the process of construction. Campi Ya Kanzi was the country’s first camp to be gold rated by Ecotourism Kenya for its green practices. Photovoltaic panels ensure that 100% of the resort’s electricity is generated by sunlight, whereas a special rainwater catchment system fulfills all the water needs. To top it off, all guides, trackers, maids, and waiters employed at Campi Ya Kanzi come from the local Maasai tribe.
