Asilia Africa | Asilia Camps And Lodges Kenya & Tanzania
Asilia Africa | Asilia Camps And Lodges Kenya & Tanzania. A limited collection of genuine establishments can be found in East Africa under the name Asilia Lodges and Camps. These small-scale campgrounds are thoughtfully positioned in secluded areas near the national parks of Kenya and Tanzania or on the tropical island of Zanzibar.
The Asilia Africa philosophy places more emphasis on the safari experience, the caliber of guiding, individualized service, and great cuisine than it does on the opulent amenities of the accommodations. While operating on a modest scale and making an effort to convey a sense of independence through game drives—and, whenever feasible, walking safaris—in stunning natural areas, no two Asilia properties feel same.

Kenya Safaris
A safari in Kenya, the undisputed “Home of the African Safari,” offers some of the most iconic wildlife spectacles on earth. From the sweeping, predator-rich savannahs of the Serengeti eco-system to dramatic rift valleys, mountaintops, and rich cultural encounters with the Maasai, Kenya is a quintessential wildlife destination.
Uganda Safaris
A safari in Uganda, famously named the “Pearl of Africa” by Winston Churchill, offers one of the most diverse and unique wildlife adventures on the continent. Unlike traditional savannah-only destinations, Uganda blends dramatic misty rainforests home to half the world’s mountain gorillas with classic game-drive plains, roaring waterfalls, and rich river channels.
Tanzania Safaris
Tanzania is home to some of the most celebrated wildlife sanctuaries on Earth, offering a quintessential African safari experience. It boasts Africa’s highest mountain (Mount Kilimanjaro), its largest unbroken volcanic caldera (Ngorongoro Crater), and the vast plains of the Serengeti, making it a bucket-list destination for wildlife enthusiasts.

Having started our safari at a more upmarket Asilla camp we were surprised that Kwihala was even better! The food was fantastic, the service superb and our guide David, the best!
We had the most incredible experiences with leopards, lions, elephants and giraffes as well as the other wonderful wildlife and scenery.
Thank you guys!
