Combine two of Kenya’s finest game parks on this all-inclusive road safari. Stay at top-quality lodges inside Amboseli National Park and Tsavo National Park, enjoying sweeping views of the plains of Africa flanked by Mount Kilimanjaro.
The tour begins in Nairobi and could either end in Nairobi or Mombasa. We explore both wildlife parks on 4×4 game drives in search of Africa’s Big Five and the plethora of other wildlife found in these beautiful reserves of southern Kenya.
Amboseli is famous for its large elephant herds and close-range wildlife sightings with the majestic Mount Kilimanjaro as a scenic backdrop. Tsavo, best known for its lions, is one of Kenya’s oldest and one of the world’s largest reserves.
Our tour starts with two days in Amboseli National Park – home to large herds of elephants whose population is one of the few in Africa that has been spared from poachers. Amboseli is located on the border with the neighbouring country of Tanzania and is renowned for its large herds of free-ranging African elephants.
Predators in the park include hyenas, jackals; lions, leopards and cheetahs. Birdlife in abundance flourishes particularly in the marshes and swamps. Over 420 species have been counted within the park as a whole including 6 species of vulture, 12 species of heron and 10 varieties of an eagle.
We then continue to Tsavo West National Park. Together Tsavo West National Park and Tsavo East National Park make up one of the largest animal sanctuaries in the world. The terrain encompasses huge plains and an interesting geological landscape such as cones, outcrops and lava flows resulting from historic volcanic activity.
The area has a wide variety of wildlife including lion, cheetah, leopard, buffalo, hippo, elephant, oryx, eland, zebra, giraffe, spotted hyena, kongoni, waterbuck, impala, duiker and klipspringer.
On the last day of our Kenyan wildlife adventure, we have breakfast and then drive back through rural Kenya to the capital city, Nairobi. Upon arrival in Nairobi, you can be transferred to the international airport or post-safari accommodation of your choice.
