At Amboseli, your experienced safari guide will be ready to meet you and take you on an en-route game drive as you head toward your lodge. After check-in, savor a delightful lunch and take some time to relax before embarking on your afternoon game drive. This will be your first opportunity to experience Amboseli’s vast plains, famous for its majestic elephant herds and the spectacular backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro.

Amboseli National Park Game Drives

Begin your day with an early morning game drive, the best time to observe Amboseli’s wildlife at their most active. Watch as elephants roam in large herds, lions stalk their prey, cheetahs survey the plains, and buffalo graze under the soft morning light. The early hours also provide the clearest view of Mount Kilimanjaro’s snow-capped summit, offering perfect photo opportunities before clouds roll in.

For a truly unforgettable experience, you can opt for a hot air balloon safari, giving you a stunning aerial perspective of the park’s landscapes and wildlife. Afterward, return to your lodge for a hearty breakfast. The rest of the day can be spent relaxing, or you may choose an optional visit to a nearby Maasai Village to learn about their rich culture.

Amboseli to Maasai Mara

After an early breakfast, you will be transferred to the nearby airstrip to board your scheduled flight to the iconic Masai Mara, either directly from Amboseli or via Nairobi, depending on availability. Upon arrival in the Mara, your professional driver-guide will warmly welcome you and transfer you to your lodge or camp, with a short en-route game drive introducing you to the vast plains and wildlife of the reserve. After check-in and a relaxing lunch, head out for an afternoon game drive across the Mara’s golden savannah. This is your chance to witness a rich variety of wildlife including elephants, prides of lions, cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, and, during the season, the great wildebeest migration. The open landscapes and acacia-dotted plains provide excellent photography opportunities and unforgettable sightings. As the day winds down, return to your camp or lodge for dinner and a restful overnight stay under the African stars.
