Masai Mara National Park

Masai Mara Game Reserve – Full Day
Meal Plan: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Start early to enjoy the beauty of the awakening day and the birdsong in the reserve. This day is dedicated to unlimited game drives, offering the chance to see a variety of wildlife in their natural habitat. The Masai Mara has Africa's highest density of wildlife. If visiting during the Great Migration (July - October), witness thousands of gazelles, zebras, and wildebeests crossing the Mara River. Stop for a picnic lunch by the river, where you can observe hippos, crocodiles, and more.

Optional activities include visiting a Maasai village to learn about their culture and purchase handcrafted beaded items. For an unforgettable experience, consider a hot air balloon safari at dawn, offering stunning aerial views of the park and migration. Ask your guide to arrange this special experience.

We’ll be up before the birds on an early morning departure to Amboseli Park.

Traveling past fields and farmland, we’ll make stops along the way to appreciate Kenya’s natural scenery.

We’ll also take a lunch break to stretch and relax.

Arriving at Amboseli Park in the afternoon, there will be time for a game drive and to get acquainted with the reserve.

At the park’s southern boundary stands the towering form of Mt. Kilimanjaro, a constant presence looking over the rich variety of wildlife all about in this smaller park.

Toward evening the mountain’s snow-capped peak may be revealed as the high-altitude cloud cover can burn off, leaving us with a perfect vista of one of Africa’s most inspirational sites.

Amboseli National Park

Full Day Amboseli National park
Meal Plan: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

The day will be filled with game drives and relaxation time as well. Just tell your driver/guide how much you’d like of each.

But we’ll be up early for a pre-breakfast safari through the park as the elephant families march to their favorite watering holes.

We’ll travel by Jeep to our favorite watering hole – our lodge or tented camp for a hearty, safari breakfast. Then we’ll fill out the morning on another relaxed game drive.

The foliage is sparse at Amboseli which makes for easier game spotting.

We’ll take an easy lunch and plan our afternoon. Your driver/guide is an expert and can discuss the different regions of the park to explore, such as its marshes, lakes or woodlands.

Toward evening, look for another wonderful African sunset and maybe the clear, snowy summit of Kilimanjaro. Have your camera ready!
