Tour Plan
Your Kenya Safari Tour begins with a morning pick-up from your Nairobi hotel or the airport. You will meet your professional safari guide before starting the approximately 4-hour drive to Amboseli National Park.
As you leave Nairobi, your guide will share information about the areas you pass and the wildlife you may see during your journey. The scenery gradually changes as you travel toward Amboseli, with open landscapes and local communities along the way.
As you approach the park, you may begin to see elephants moving across the plains. Amboseli is famous for its large elephant herds, and watching these animals with Mount Kilimanjaro in the background is one of the highlights of the trip.
Upon arrival, continue to Ol Tukai Lodge for check-in and relaxation. Depending on your arrival time, you may enjoy lunch before heading out for an afternoon game drive. Explore the park while looking for elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, lions, and other wildlife.
