As you leave the city behind, the scenery gradually changes to open plains and traditional Maasai landscapes. By late morning, you’ll approach Amboseli, where the magnificent silhouette of Mount Kilimanjaro may begin to appear on the horizon.
Arrive at your lodge or camp, enjoy lunch and take some time to settle in before heading out for your first afternoon game drive.
Amboseli is famous for its large elephant herds, but the park is also home to lions, cheetahs, buffalo, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, hippos and an impressive variety of birdlife.
As the afternoon light begins to soften, enjoy the spectacular combination of wildlife and Kilimanjaro before returning to your accommodation for dinner.

On clear mornings, Mount Kilimanjaro provides an extraordinary backdrop to the wildlife encounters.
Return to your lodge for breakfast or a midday break, depending on the day’s schedule, before relaxing during the warmer hours.
Later in the afternoon, venture out again for another game drive. Explore different areas of the park in search of predators, plains game and birdlife while enjoying the changing scenery of Amboseli.

Accompanied by a qualified local guide, enjoy a guided walking safari through the sanctuary, where wildlife roams freely.
Giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, gazelles and other herbivores may be encountered as you explore the island on foot.
The experience offers a completely different perspective from traditional game drives — there are no vehicle windows between you and the surrounding wilderness, allowing you to appreciate the landscape at a much more intimate level.

Overnight: Lake Naivasha

Upon arrival, enter the park for a game drive as you make your way towards your lodge or camp. Lake Nakuru is renowned for its rhino population and offers opportunities to encounter buffalo, giraffes, zebras, lions and other wildlife.
The park’s combination of lake, woodland, grassland and escarpment creates a wonderfully varied safari environment.

Day 6: Full-Day Maasai Mara National Reserve
Today is dedicated entirely to exploring one of Africa’s most celebrated wildlife destinations.
Set out early for a full-day game drive across the Maasai Mara, travelling through open grasslands, riverine areas and rolling savannah in search of the reserve’s remarkable wildlife.
The Mara offers excellent opportunities to encounter the Big Five, while cheetahs, hyenas, hippos, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest and numerous antelope species add to the incredible diversity.
Depending on the season, you may also witness dramatic scenes associated with the Great Migration, when vast herds of wildebeest and other herbivores move through the Mara ecosystem.
