3 Days Amboseli Safari

Amboseli | Kilimanjaro | Nairobi

Day 1: Nairobi - Amboseli 07:30 hrs. We will pick you up from your Nairobi Hotel, residence or the Nairobi airport. We’ll head out in your private 4 x 4 Jeep, on the Nairobi-Mombasa Highway. This is a relaxing drive through African savannah country, with local homesteads punctuating the vast plain. Watch for Maasai herdsmen, draped in their colorful wraps as they tend to their flocks. We should arrive in Amboseli National Park in the late morning. Entering the park, you can’t miss the wall of the mountain to the south – this is legendary Mt. Kilimanjaro, known as the “roof of Africa”, rising to 19,000 feet. It’s the continent’s tallest peak and the highest free-standing mountain in the world. This is the backdrop to much of the park’s wildlife and always a gift to photographers, so have your camera ready for the next 3 days! We’ll enjoy lunch at your accommodation and then head out for an afternoon game drive. Amboseli is known for its relative ease in wildlife spotting. All of Africa’s Big Five are here as well as zebra, giraffe, cheetah, warthog, ostrich and many more. Toward evening, the cloud cover obscuring Kilimanjaro’s snow-capped summit may clear, giving us one of Africa’s most striking vistas. Dinner and overnight at a tented camp or lodge of your choice Accommodation: Sentrim Amboseli Lodge or similar Meal Plan: Lunch and Dinner

Day 3: Amboseli - Nairobi  Our final day in the park and we want to squeeze in all the game viewing we can. We’ll start on a pre-breakfast safari and see who we can check off our list. Don’t forget to look for the smaller animals here like hyenas, foxes, jackals, and monkeys. There’s also a colorful variety of rich birdlife in the park – pelican, kingfisher, egret, and heron are found near the park’s marshes and lakes. We’ll enjoy one more Amboseli breakfast, with views of great Kilimanjaro and then a final game drive as we exit the reserve. Accommodation: Not included Meal Plan: Breakfast
