The view from Finch Hattons Camp

Finch Hattons is a boutique lodge located within the vast acreage of Tsavo National Park. Named after a big-game-loving aristocrat who turned his passion towards conservation.

As you gaze out from your tent's terrace, you'll be captivated by the magnificent backdrop of the Chyulu Hills and Mount Kilimanjaro. Natural springs, frequented by thirsty and perhaps hungry hippos, provide a unique spectacle just a stone's throw away. Your days will be filled with exhilarating game drives, tracking the renowned red elephants that grace this park's savannah. But we can assure you that the evenings will be just as magical. Picture yourself sipping sundowners under the glittering African sky, indulging in candlelit Kenyan cuisine, and enjoying the freedom to create your own signature cocktails from our minibar stocked with carefully selected libations.

The camp proudly presents 17 tented suites, each offering breathtaking and uninterrupted views of the natural springs in utmost privacy. With decades of experience and a commitment to innovation, the tented suites have evolved to become the epitome of luxury in the wild.
