Kilaguni Lodge Waterhole

Kilaguni Serena Safari Lodge

The oldest lodge in western Tsavo, with a terrace overlooking a waterhole. You can sit with a cup of tea and watch elephants and buffalo come to drink.

Kilaguni Serena Safari Lodge was built in 1962 and is one of the earliest safari lodges in any Kenyan national park. The dining room and terrace face an artificial waterhole, where elephants, buffalo and zebras queue to drink during the dry season. On clear days the Chyulu Hills and Kilimanjaro form the backdrop. Non-guests can have lunch in the restaurant and enjoy the view, making it a classic rest stop on a game drive through western Tsavo.
