Tour Plan

Your Amboseli Safari begins with an early morning departure from Nairobi. Travel south toward Amboseli National Park as you leave the city behind and enter the Kenyan countryside.

During the journey, enjoy views of open farmland, savannah landscapes, and distant hills. The changing scenery gives you a first look at the natural beauty that makes Kenya a popular safari destination.

Upon arrival at Amboseli, check into your luxury tented camp and enjoy lunch. Take some time to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings before heading out for your first afternoon game drive.

As you explore the open plains, look for elephants, zebras, buffaloes, giraffes, and other wildlife. With some luck, you may also see predators such as lions moving through the grasslands.

As the afternoon comes to an end, enjoy the beautiful African sunset before returning to camp. Have dinner and relax under the African night sky before your overnight stay.

Start your morning with an early sunrise game drive. The cooler morning temperatures make this an excellent time to search for wildlife, while the soft light creates beautiful opportunities for photography.
Mount Kilimanjaro may provide a spectacular background as you explore the park, especially when the mountain is clearly visible.
After the morning game drive, return to camp for breakfast. Later, continue with a full-day exploration of Amboseli with a packed lunch.
The park’s different habitats support a wide range of wildlife. As you explore the swamps and dry plains, you may see elephants, cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, lions, and many bird species.
Return to your camp in the afternoon for some time to rest and enjoy the facilities. Later, head out again for an evening game drive.
The evening light creates a beautiful setting across the Amboseli plains. After the drive, return to camp for dinner and another comfortable overnight stay.

On your final morning, you may choose to enjoy an optional early morning game drive. This provides one last chance to see wildlife when the park is quiet and animals are still active.

After the morning activity, return to camp for breakfast before checking out.

Begin your journey back to Nairobi after breakfast. As you travel, take time to reflect on the wildlife, landscapes, and memorable moments from your Amboseli Safari.

You are expected to arrive in Nairobi in the early afternoon. If time allows, you may make an optional stop at a local Maasai market to look for souvenirs and handmade items.

Afterward, you will be dropped off at your Nairobi hotel or transferred to the airport for your onward journey.

Your three-day Amboseli Safari comes to an end with lasting memories of elephants, beautiful savannahs, and the impressive Mount Kilimanjaro.
