A short break to explore Amboseli's elephants and views of Mt Kilimanjaro.
Your journey begins early in the morning with a hotel or airport pick-up in Nairobi. Enjoy a scenic drive through Kenya’s heartland as you make your way towards Amboseli National Park, located near the Tanzanian border. Along the route, observe rural villages, local markets and endless savannah landscapes.
Arrive at Amboseli around midday, check in to your lodge and enjoy a hot lunch. After some rest, set off on your first thrilling game drive across the park’s vast plains. Amboseli is famed for its massive elephant herds, often seen walking beneath the snow-capped peaks of Mount Kilimanjaro. Keep an eye out for lions, zebras, giraffes, hyenas, buffaloes and over 400 bird species.
As the sun sets, return to your lodge for dinner and a relaxing overnight stay, surrounded by the sounds of the African wilderness.
Wake up early for a sunrise game drive – the perfect time to see Amboseli’s wildlife at its most active. With Mount Kilimanjaro on the horizon, capture iconic photographs and enjoy the serenity of the open plains. You’ll have another opportunity to spot predators and rare species before the heat of the day sets in.
Return to the lodge for a leisurely breakfast. Afterwards, you may visit a nearby Maasai village for a cultural encounter (optional, at extra cost), before checking out and setting off on your journey back to Nairobi.
Expect to arrive in Nairobi by mid to late afternoon, concluding your short but unforgettable safari experience.
