Amboseli Sopa Lodge

Amboseli Sopa Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"The staff were excellent, friendly and very helpful. I was especially impressed with the Masai employees. Food was very good and the grounds very well kept. Fun to have the monkeys and Dik Diks wandering around. My only minor complaint was that the restaurant in the park had several unfriendly and unhelpful employees including the chef."
