Overview
This safari moves across several well known wildlife areas in Kenya including Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Amboseli and the Tsavo parks. Along the route you spend time in open savannah, lake regions full of birds, and the dry landscapes of Tsavo where wildlife is often seen near water sources. Amboseli also offers clear views of Mount Kilimanjaro on good days and large groups of elephants. The trip is done privately in a 4×4 Land Cruiser, and accommodation can be arranged in different standards depending on preference and travel season.
