Day 1

Nairobi - Amboseli National Park

Nairobi - Amboseli National Park

At 07h00, we'll start our journey on the Nairobi/Mombasa Highway past golden fields and farmlands. Your driver-guide from Splendid Vacations will chat about the sights along the way and answer any questions about your upcoming tour. Drive via expansive savannah plains dotted with local homesteads and colorful Maasai tribe members and their cattle.

We'll arrive at Amboseli National Park around mid-morning with plenty of time for a game drive and to get acquainted with the park before lunch. You can't miss the sight of the imposing Mount Kilimanjaro nor the very present herds of elephants – so many you're guaranteed to see them lumbering along in stately procession.

An afternoon game-viewing drive is scheduled for the late afternoon when animals are most active. Weather permitting, Mount Kilimanjaro will emerge from the clouds, and the sights of the snow-peak peaks will be incredible.

Dinner and your overnight stay at the Ol Tukai Lodge.

Day 3

Tsavo West National Park - Tsavo East National Park

Tsavo West National Park - Tsavo East National Park

We’ll enjoy breakfast and an en-route game drive as we head out to Tsavo East National Park. You may have heard of Tsavo’s red dust elephants. The soil here is rusty from oxidation, so when the herds are ready for a dirt bath, they roll in this ruddy earth, presenting a colorful coat for us to admire.

The park will allow us to find other members of the “Big Five,” like the black rhino, Cape buffalo, and leopard. On our game drives through Tsavo’s rugged plains, we’ll also be tracking the famous maneless Tsavo lions, whose man-eating reputation from a century ago still sparks fascination and some excitement.

A sure spot to find some of this wildlife is at the Aruba Dam, a beautiful structure that has formed an impressive waterhole. Thousands of animals are attracted to its waters, and we’ll be there as they nourish themselves at this life-giving oasis.

Dinner and your overnight stay are at Voi Safari Lodge.

It lies in the coral gardens south of Wasini Island and encompasses 3 small coral rag forest islands, each with considerable areas of fringing reef.
