Stay at Ol Donyo

Ol Donyo Lodge is set on 275,000 acres nestled in the foothills of the Chyulus with views over the plains to Mount Kilimanjaro, the lodge blends seamlessly into the landscape. Combining contemporary design with rich Maasai culture each of ol Donyoâs villas and suits are individually styled and decorated, each room has their own plunge pool and enjoy roof terraces where intimate âstar bedsâ can be set up, allowing guests the thrill of sleeping in style under the african sky.

There are a variety of activities available from the lodge, horse riding, guided bush walks, twice daily game drives and for children a personal guide can be provided who can provide a number of fun activities for your little one including bush survival course to name a few. After a full day of activities guests find themselves relaxing in the lodge pool and enjoying much needed sundowners on the deck overlooking the plains.

Why we love it

Unrivalled views of Mount Kilimanjaro.
It is here that some of Africa’s last giant elephant bulls roam freely and the haunting calls of leopards interrupt the night.
Combining luxurious and traditional decoration, Ol Donyo is one of the most attractive lodges in East Africa.

Bush Meals

Be surrounded by nature as you dine in the bush for breakfast or dinner, listening to the sounds of the Amboseli in the background.

Night Drives

Horse Riding

Ride amongst thirty-eight different species of mammals out on the plains to truly experience life as an animal living in the Kenyan bush.

Mountain Biking

Grab your helmet and go off-road to explore corners of Mbirikani's rugged terrain that cannot be explored by vehicle.

I went on an adventure of a lifetime to Kenya, planned by True Travel. Borana was the perfect introduction to Africa – the staff were fantastic, the lodge very comfortable and I had amazing wildlife sightings. Then the helicopter flight and night out with Andrew (the real Crocodile Dundee) was an experience of a lifetime; we went scorpion hunting, crocodile catching, swimming in lakes and flew over flamingos. All in all, everything was fantastically planned and the service was brilliant. I’m looking forward to the next adventure!
