Tour Plan
MEALS PLAN: Lunch & Dinner
Swiss Kenya safari driver guide will pick you up from your Nairobi hotel/Airport and depart for Amboseli via Nairobi-Mombasa Highway also known as the early explorer’s route.
Safari
Few parks can guarantee sightings of a particular animal – not so at Amboseli. This is the best spot to see free-ranging elephants up close… guaranteed. Framing these regal creatures is the towering backdrop of Mt. Kilimanjaro. You’ll enjoy Africa’s best views of its snowy peak, weather permitting, in the early morning and late afternoon.
The vegetation can be sparse at Amboseli, but that only offers more opportunities to spot other wildlife in the park like buffalo, wildebeest, impala, hyena, giraffe and zebra. And you have a good chance of seeing lion and cheetah.
If birdlife is your fancy, at the park’s marshes and lakes, you’ll be treated to a rich avian display of pelicans, kingfishers, egrets, herons and more.
Overnight
Dinner and overnight at the lodge or tented camp of your choice.

We’ll head out early for another game drive. This will be an ideal time to view Kilimanjaro. If the clouds cooperate, you’ll see the snowy peak of the tallest mountain in Africa.
While at Amboseli, if you choose, you can enjoy an optional visit to a nearby Masai Village, where you can meet these indigenous people and learn about their culture. There will be opportunities to purchase handcrafted jewelry as well.
Then we’re off to the second park of your holiday – Tsavo East. We’ll use this time well since our trip to Tsavo will also be a game drive!
Arriving at our second lodge we’ll freshen up and enjoy lunch. Then we’ll head out on the park’s grasslands to “catch” more wildlife. You may see black rhino, Cape buffalo, leopard and lion.
There’s a good chance you’ll be treated to the sight of Tsavo famous red-dust elephants, coated red by the dust baths they take in the brick red earth.
