Amboseli Wildebeest Camp
Deluxe tents and safari cottages · Eastern edge of the park; its site does not say which side of the boundary · Not stated on its site
Mid-range
Boundary unconfirmed
Ownership unconfirmed
A camp of deluxe tents and safari cottages on the eastern side of Amboseli. Its site says it is 'in the heart of Amboseli', and a guest quote on the same site says 'in the heart of the ecosystem', which is a different claim. OpenStreetMap places it about 0.7 km outside the eastern boundary, but that map is a volunteer source, so it shows here as boundary unconfirmed until the camp says plainly where it stands. Little else is published: no rate, no room count, no owner and no activities list. That leaves it as a name to ask about if the better-documented camps near Kimana Gate are full. Write to the camp directly for a quote and confirm its position.

- Direct contact by email and phone on its own site
- An alternative when the Kimana Gate camps are full
Cons
- Calls itself 'in the heart of Amboseli' without saying inside or outside
- No published rates or room count
- Owner not named on the site
- We found no published child policy
What the park charges on top
The rate above buys you a bed. Amboseli National Park charges its own entry fee for every day you are inside. Here is what that adds up to.
- Park entryThe non-resident rate, per entry of up to 24 hours, flat all year since 1 October 2025.
- $90per person, per day
- VehicleKSh 600 a day for a car under six seats, about $4.60 at KSh 129.45 to the dollar.
- $5per vehicle, per day
Three nights means three days inside, so two adults sharing one vehicle pay $555 in park fees before anyone pays for a bed.
Leaving the park and driving back in buys a new ticket, so a lodge outside the gate can mean more fee days than nights.
The full fee schedule for Amboseli National ParkRates at Amboseli Wildebeest Camp
Rates on request. No rate published on the pages read on 4 October 2026. Ask for a per-person quote, the meal plan and whether park entry is included. The KWS conservation fee of $90 per non-resident adult per day (October 2025 card) applies on park days.
What the rate covers is not confirmed. We do not know yet whether meals, drinks and activities are included, so read this as the bed only.
Every figure on this page is in US dollars.
Rates checked on 4 October 2026 from each property's own website or rate card and from KWS's October 2025 conservation-fee card and 2025 Mbugani Homes rate card. Angama's 2026 rate comes from an archived copy of its rate page (captured August 2025), because the live site blocks automated reading. None of the figures is a reseller or agent rate; where a property publishes nothing, the entry says Rates on request, and the Budget, Mid-range or Top-end label then follows the style the property describes rather than a price. Booking.com was not checked for any property. Watch the basis: most camps quote per person sharing, the KWS units per unit and Kibo Villa per villa, and the KWS conservation fee of $90 per non-resident adult per day (October 2025 card) is extra almost everywhere, plus conservancy fees at the conservancy camps.

Is Amboseli Wildebeest Camp good for families?
We found no published child policy. Ask whether the safari cottages take an extra bed and what children pay.
