Kilimanjaro to the south and down across the resident waterhole to the northwest, where guests can enjoy their meals while watching wildlife bathe and drink.

The camp waterhole is visited by elephant, giraffe, zebra, lesser kudu, eland, cheetah and occasionally lion, as well as a host of other species. For those wishing not to exercise, simply relax in/by the camp’s infinity pool looking out at the waterhole and Kilimanjaro.

The trained and experienced Kenya Professional Safari Guides are on hand to help you experience the wildlife and culture of Elerai. These include day and night game drives, bush walks, bush lunches & dinners & sundowners, mountain biking, birding and conservation/community/cultural activities.

Elerai Camp can escort guests on a privileged visit to see the Elerai Cultural village.

The Elerai Cultural Village is a real traditional Maasai village inhabited by Elerai Community Members. They only allow Elerai Camp guests to visit on invitation basis and so the experience offered is very much non-commercial and authentic.
