Itinerary

Embark on a road journey to Tsavo West National Park, arriving in time for lunch. Following lunch, you have the option for an afternoon or evening game drive to explore the park's diverse wildlife. Tsavo West, the most visited section of Tsavo National Park, is renowned for numerous attractions beyond its wildlife.

 

The highlight is the famous Mzima Springs, where an impressive 227.3 million liters of cool, crystal-clear water flow from the ground through porous volcanic rocks. Believed to originate from Chyulu Hills via an underground river, the springs add a unique natural spectacle to the park.

 

Conclude the day with a delicious dinner and an overnight stay at a campsite or lodge, surrounded by the wonders of Tsavo West National Park.

Accommodation: Salt Lick Safari Lodge

After breakfast, enjoy a full-day game drive with a packed lunch provided for a day of exploration. Visit the Roaring Rocks, named for the wind that rushes through them, offering spectacular views over Tsavo from a 98-meter rock face.

 

Similar panoramic views can be experienced from the poachers lookout. Explore the volcanic Chaimu Crater, less than 200 years old and composed of black coke. If interested, it can be climbed for a unique perspective. The area is also known for the agile klipspringer, a small antelope aptly named Mbuzi Mawe, or "mountain goat," in Swahili. In the southwest corner of Tsavo West lies Lake Jipe, with the Kenyan-Tanzanian border running through it.

 

Conclude the day with dinner and an overnight stay at a campsite or lodge, surrounded by the natural wonders of Tsavo West National Park.

Commence your day with an early morning start as you embark on a journey to Amboseli National Park. Upon arrival, check in at your chosen accommodation, and the day is left at leisure for you to immerse yourself in the unique surroundings.

 

Situated south of Nairobi, Amboseli National Park features a predominantly dry, ancient lake bed and delicate grassland, adorned with patches of acacia woodland. In the southern region, small rocky volcanic hills add to the park's distinctive landscape. The areas around the swamps—Ol Okenya, Ol Tukai, and Enkongo Narok—boast lush vegetation with yellow-barked acacias and phoenix palms.

 

Conclude the day with a delightful dinner and an overnight stay at a campsite or lodge, surrounded by the natural beauty of Amboseli National Park.

Accommodation: Praro Amboseli Camp

Begin your day by rising early to capture stunning views of Mount Kilimanjaro before clouds shroud its summit. A packed lunch will be provided for the day's adventures. After breakfast, consider an optional visit to a Maasai village, where you can witness the singing and dancing that are integral to their daily lives and sacred rituals.

 

Gain a glimpse into their homes and social structure, creating a poignant and enriching experience. Despite the changing habitat, Amboseli National Park stands out as possibly the best wildlife area in all of Africa to experience elephants up close. Unharassed by poachers, the elephants feeding and bathing in the swamps create unforgettable highlights for any safari.

 

Conclude the day with dinner and an overnight stay at a campsite or lodge, surrounded by the natural wonders of Amboseli National Park.

Embark on an early morning game drive in the captivating Amboseli National Park, immersing yourself in the beauty of its wildlife and landscapes. Following the morning adventure, in the afternoon, transfer back to Nairobi, with an anticipated arrival around 5 pm.

 

Enjoy lunch en route. This marks the conclusion of our services, concluding a memorable journey through Amboseli and offering a final glimpse of the stunning wildlife and natural wonders.
