Safari summary
A 2-night safari to Amboseli followed by one night at Tsavo’s Salt Lick offers a perfect blend of iconic scenery and unique wildlife experiences. Your journey begins with two nights in Amboseli National Park, where vast open plains, lush wetlands, and the magnificent backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro create unforgettable game drives. Amboseli is famous for its large, relaxed elephant herds, along with lions, cheetahs, buffalo, giraffes, hippos, and abundant birdlife, all easily spotted against the dramatic landscape. After soaking in Amboseli’s beauty, you continue to the Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary for a night at the remarkable Salt Lick Safari Lodge, built on stilts above a busy waterhole. Here, you enjoy close-up wildlife viewing from the lodge’s elevated walkways and ground-level hides as elephants, buffalo, antelope, and sometimes big cats gather to drink, especially in the evening. The stay combines adventure with a unique, intimate wildlife experience before you conclude your safari.
