Porini Camp Amboseli
A Small luxury Camp in Amboseli Kenya


On the shandaows of Kilimanajaro Africa`s highest peak and within the  exclusive Selenkay Conservancy is located a small luxury camp:Porini Camp Amboseli which lies within the Amboseli eco-system, an important wildlife dispersal area and rangeland for wildlife moving out of Amboseli National park.


Porini Camp Amboseli  is a small camp that consists of  9 spacious guest tents, comfortably furnished and with en suite bathrooms including shower, wash basin and flush toilet.The camp tents have solar-powered electric lighting  and is on the lines of the traditional luxury safari camp, but with more comfortable bathroom arrangements than were available to the big game hunters of earlier years! The camp provides an exclusive experience catering to a maximum of 18 guests at a time. All transport on this safari is in a specially designed open-sided Landrover 4 wheel drive safari vehicle.


Going on safari in a 'proper' safari vehicle gives a far better safari experience than traveling in the minibus vans with window seats used by other tour operators! And as Selenkay Conservation Area is a private game reserve you will not see any other vehicles or minibuses. From Amboseli Porini Camp guests have game drives with excellent guides in the Selenkay Conservancy and in the Amboseli National Park. A full day is spent in the park with a picnic lunch to get close to the elephants and other wildlife. One of the highlights is an escorted walk with Maasai warriors to visit an authentic Maasai village. Night game drives are taken in the Selenkay Conservancy to seek out the nocturnal animals. At the camps all meals, drinks (wine, gin & tonic, beer, sodas, mineral water), and all activities including game drives, walks, night drives and sundowners are included in the price.


Gamewatchers Safaris is supporting the conservation of wildlife through the community at Selenkay and is involved in managing the Selenkay Conservancy and operating the Amboseli Porini Camp. This generates an income for the community and employment opportunities for them within the Selenkay Conservancy and at the Amboseli Porini Camp. The community is receiving a rent for the lease of the area by Porini Safari Camps, plus an entry fee for each tourist visitor. All roads have been constructed using local labour so that the members of the community gain employment from the Conservancy. In addition to the road maintenance team, Game Scouts have been employed to carry out patrols to see that the wildlife is protected.


 

Selenkay Conservancy is well off the beaten track and has not been visited by tourists until fairly recently. It lies in the heart of Maasailand and the animals are truly wild and not fully habituated to vehicles. The number of tourist visitors staying at the Amboseli Porini Camp within Selenkay Conservancy is limited to a maximum of eighteen per day to retain the wild and unspoilt nature of the area and to minimise the impact on the environment. Within the conservation area the following animals have been seen recently: elephant, lion, leopard, cheetah, Thompson's and Grant's gazelles, gerenuk, impala, oryx, lesser kudu, zebra, wildebeest, giraffe, warthog, striped hyena, jackal, bat-eared fox, caracal, African wild cat, serval cat, genet cat, honey badger, mongoose and ostrich. Birdlife is prolific, especially birds of prey.
