Experience the beauty of Amboseli National Park in just two days. This express safari gives you the chance to see large herds of elephants, take in spectacular views of Mount Kilimanjaro and enjoy an immersive African wildlife experience. Ideal for travellers with limited time who want a powerful taste of Kenya's wilderness.
A short escape 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 head toward Amboseli National Park, near the Tanzanian border. Along the way, take in rural villages, local markets and the expansive savannah landscapes.
Arrive at Amboseli around midday, check in to your lodge and enjoy a hot lunch. After a brief rest, embark on your first thrilling game drive across the park’s wide plains. Amboseli is famed for its vast elephant herds, often seen beneath the snow-capped peaks of Mount Kilimanjaro. Keep a lookout for lions, zebras, giraffes, hyenas, buffalo and more than 400 bird species.
As the sun sets, return to your lodge for dinner and a peaceful 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 when it’s most active. With Mount Kilimanjaro in the background, capture iconic photographs and savour the serenity of the open plains. You’ll have another chance 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 an extra cost), before checking out and beginning your journey back to Nairobi.
Expect to arrive in Nairobi by mid to late afternoon, concluding your short but unforgettable safari experience.
