Day 1

Nairobi - Amboseli National Park

Nairobi - Amboseli National Park

After breakfast, you'll depart Nairobi and drive south through the Maasai lands of the Athi Plains. You'll arrive at Amboseli National Park in time for a picnic lunch within the park or a hot lunch at your lodge.

Once you've refueled, it's time to head out into the park for an afternoon game drive where you'll see herds of wildebeests and zebras, proud lions, skulking hyenas, a variety of antelopes, and some of Kenya's largest herds of elephants - all set against the startling backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro.

After sunset, you'll retire to your lodge for dinner.

Day 2

Amboseli National Park - Nairobi

Amboseli National Park - Nairobi

For the absolute best views of Kilimanjaro, you'll have to wake up early for the sunrise. The morning sun casts Kilimanjaro in a fantastic light, turning its snow pink and its mountainside a deep purple that has to be seen to be believed. It makes a remarkable setting for your breakfast.

You'll also enjoy excellent game-viewing conditions on your early morning game drive. Predators such as lions and leopards are much more active in these low-light, cooler conditions.

After your game drive, you'll return to Nairobi. For those traveling to Tanzania, the Namanga border crossing is only a 3-hour drive from Amboseli National Park.
