Day 2. Amboseli
After breakfast, we will depart for Amboseli. Lunch at the lodge. In the afternoon, a safari until sunset. Amboseli National Park, situated beneath Africa’s most famous landmark, Mount Kilimanjaro, is a 392-square-kilometer reserve located south of Nairobi. If the sky is clear, we’ll be able to see the stunning panorama of Africa’s highest mountain, standing at 5,896 meters, during our safaris. The mountain’s waters feed the seasonal swamps that sustain the animals and birds living in the park. Because of its scenic beauty and magical light, this is where photographers wait to capture the classic shot of an elephant or giraffe standing against the backdrop of the snow-capped mountain. Meals and lodging at Kibo Safari Camp.

Scenes from the movie “Out of Africa” were filmed in this area. Upon arrival, we’ll enjoy the hotel’s magnificent facilities, gardens, pool, and outdoor areas overlooking the lake, teeming with resident wildlife such as giraffes, zebras, and gazelles. In the afternoon, a boat safari is included. We’ll be able to see and photograph hippos, fish eagles, and other wildlife closer than ever before.

Day 6. Masai Mara
A full day in the Masai Mara dedicated to morning and afternoon game drives. We will visit different areas of the Masai Mara, such as Paradise Plain, Meta Plains, and Burrungant. We will explore various sections of the Mara River where the herds cross during their migration. Our guide will keep a close watch for vultures circling overhead, as they can signal the presence of predators feeding on recent kills. Optionally, you can visit a Masai Manyata. We’ll see their huts, enjoy their welcome dances, and share experiences with the young warriors, women, and elders regarding livestock and hunting. We recommend bringing a picnic lunch to reach more areas of the savanna (at no additional cost). Accommodation at Loyk Mara Luxury Camp, Mara Maisha, Basecamp Explorer, or Mara Zebra Plains.
