Your private safari begins with an early morning pick-up from your Nairobi hotel or Jomo Kenyatta International Airport before travelling south through the scenic Kenyan countryside to Amboseli National Park.

Arrive in time for lunch before taking a moment to relax and soak in the tranquil surroundings.

Later in the afternoon, set out on your first game drive across Amboseli's open plains, renowned for their large elephant herds and spectacular views of Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's highest mountain. Keep an eye out for lions, cheetahs, buffaloes, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest and an abundance of birdlife as your expert driver-guide introduces you to the park's remarkable ecosystems.
