Arrival in Kenya | Travel to Amboseli National Park | Evening Game Drive

Upon arrival in Kenya, you will be welcomed and picked by our Kubwa Five Safaris guide who will be holding an A4 paper with your name printed on it at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, and be transferred to Amboseli National Park.

The Amboseli National Park is famous for herds of elephants and groups of up to 100 are not uncommon. The bull elephants have some of the largest tusks in all of Kenya. There are over 1000 elephants in the Park, including 58 families and close to 300 independent adult males. It’s estimated that there are more than 100 tree-climbing lions in the park and the surrounding area.

On arrival, you will go for an evening game drive.

This is when temperatures cool, the light becomes softer and the wildlife begins to get active. Not only will you be out when the light is best for taking photos, but it's also one of the best times of day for seeing the animals.

Your dinner and overnight stay will be at Kimana Amboseli Tented Camp.
