Day 3 & 4: Amboseli In the Shadows of Mount Kilimanjaro

Your day begins with a sumptuous breakfast served at the city hotel followed by check out. You will be transferred to Wilson airport for your morning scheduled flight to Amboseli National Park on Kenya’s south-eastern border with Tanzania. Amboseli is a place of ever-changing landscapes, from acacia woodland, giant palm forest, dusty dry lake beds, volcanic plains, to lush, cool, green swamps fed by the snowmelt of Kilimanjaro. Tawi Lodge will set our tone for our next 2 nights in the heart of its own 3,000-acre private conservancy and in one of the richest game areas in Kenya. It is an eco-award-winning lodge, combining unpretentious comfort with subtle accents of style coupled with traditional East African hospitality.
Amboseli National Park is home to some of Kenya’s biggest elephant herds. These gentle giants stroll across the landscape in their hundreds, a wonderous and awe-inspiring sight! Exceptional views of Mt. Kilimanjaro, excellent wildlife and exotic birdlife… The name ‘Amboseli’ comes from a Maasai word meaning ‘salty dust’. ‘Mountain of Dreams', as quoted by Ian Allen, ‘Kilima Njaro’, this majestic mountain frames the Amboseli vistas. Rising out of the dusty salt flats for which Amboseli is famous, shrouded in mystery and romance. Mt. Kilimanjaro brings snow to the equator. From the lodge nestled on the foothills of this iconic mountain we watch in awe as she shows off her character peeking through the clouds or showing off in full spectacle.

Day 5 & 6: The Scenic Meru National Park

Sumptuous breakfast is served at the lodge followed by check out. We will take off to Meru National Park one of Kenya’s most underrated parks, Meru is a beguiling mix of iconic African landscapes (fertile hills, river forests, baobabs and doum palms) and a fine range of fauna (including black and white rhinos, elephants, lions and zebras). Meru is also where the lion legends of George Adamson’s Born Free came into being. But above all else, Meru is the safari as it used to be, with unusually quiet trails and the thrill of stumbling upon wildlife when you least expect it.
Elsa’s Kopje, will set tone for our next 2 nights sculpted into Mughwango Hill, above the site of George Adamson’s original camp where he raised and released orphan lions, long before conservation became fashionable. 6 en-suite cottages nestled into the hillside, and overlooking the vast plains of Meru National Park, each of Elsa’s Kopje’s open-fronted cottages are unique in design and offer an elegant safari style.

Day 7 & 8: The Fabled Masai Mara National Reserve

Sumptuous breakfast is served at the lodge and check-out; followed by en-route transfer to the nearest airstrip to catch your flight to the Masai Mara. This huge expanse of gently rolling grassland – specked with flat-topped acacia trees and trampled by massive herds of zebras and wildebeest – is the ultimate African cliché. But for once the reality lives up to the image and the Masai Mara, which comprises not just the famous reserve but also around a dozen community conservancies, several group ranches and numerous Maasai villages, is for many people not just the highlight of their Kenyan adventure but the very reason they came in the first place. Sand River will set our tone for the next 2 nights situated on a secluded and picturesque site, Sand River Masai Mara replicates the heyday of exclusive permanent tented camps of the late 1920’s.

Day 9: Depart
