Day 1 – Amboseli
Depart Nairobi in the morning and drive via Namanga on
the Tanzania border to reach Amboseli early in the
afternoon. We view game as we proceed towards the
campsite for dinner and overnight. This small park (at
392 sq km) is the second most popular park in Kenya
after Masai Mara, mainly due to the spectacular backdrop
of Mt. Kilimanjaro on the southern boundary.
Day 2 – Amboseli
Day spent exploring this park. The waters from melted
snow drain down the mountain under lava flows and
surface on the Amboseli plains, creating a green belt of
swampland amidst dusty plains. Here elephant, buffalo,
lion, cheetah, wildebeest, hyena, jackal, warthogs,
zebra and the Maasai giraffe are likely to be seen.
Amboseli means ‘the place of water’ in Maasai language.
The park has an endless supply of water which is
filtered through thousands of meters of volcanic rock
from Mount Kilimanjaro. Animal species seen include
elephant, zebra, wildebeest, giraffe, impala and
leopard. The birdlife seen here includes pelican, bee
eater, kingfisher, African fish eagle and pygmy falcon
Day 3 Amboseli – Tsavo West National park
After an early breakfast depart for Tsavo West National
Park which lies roughly half way between Nairobi and the
Coast. Mzima Springs, the chief marvel here is a
favorite haunt of hippos and crocodiles. Picnic lunch
then proceed for an evening game drive to see large
herds of elephants, buffalo, common waterbuck, eland,
rhino and a wide variety of antelope. Dinner and
overnight at a Campsite.
Day 4: Tsavo West – Tsavo East National park
We break the camp soon after breakfast and proceed to
Tsavo East National park. Game is viewed as we exit the
park. This park was famed for its large herds of
elephant covered in red dust and fine scenery. We visit
the scenic Lugards Falls, Mudanda Rocks (attracts
elephants in the drier season) and Aruba Dam as we view
game if time permits. Dinner and overnight stay at a
Campsite.
Day 5: Tsavo East National park
Full day spent exploring the park. Morning and afternoon
game drives are offered. Dinner and overnight stay at a
campsite. The landscape in Tsavo East is flatter and
drier, despite having one of Kenya’s largest rivers
flowing through the middle. Much of the wildlife is
concentrated on the Galana River, which has plentiful
crocs and hippos. Likewise, Kudus, waterbucks and dik-diks
are common along the river banks.
