We’ll pick you up from your hotel and transfer you to Wilson airport to board a scheduled morning flight to Amboseli National Park below Mt. Kilimanjaro’s plains. You’ll spend two days here and check in at the camp/lodge for lunch.
You’ll enjoy sumptuous lunch at the park’s camp/lodge. Amboseli means ‘the place of water’ in the Maasai language. That’s why it has an endless water supply, which is filtered through thousands of meters of volcanic rocks from Mount Kilimanjaro.
Here, you can feast your eyes on African elephants, zebras, wildebeests, giraffes, impalas, and leopards. Birds are also plenty in Amboseli. Some of the birds you can enjoy viewing include pelicans, bee-eaters, kingfishers, African fish eagles, and pygmy falcons.
Amboseli is one of the most popular Kenya parks, and it’s home to massive African Jumbos and Africa’s rooftop, Mt. Kilimanjaro.
Cynthia Moss, the noted American naturalist and author, conducted one of the longest-running studies on elephants here. You might even see some of the elephants she immortalized in her books and award-winning film, The Echo of the Elephants. Also, Ernest Hemingway and Robert Ruark set their famed stories of big-game hunting in Africa’s wilds here.
In the afternoons, you can proceed into the panoramic Amboseli National Park for a game drive.
After breakfast, we’ll transfer you to Amboseli Airstrip for your scheduled flight to Nairobi. At Wilson Airport, you’ll take another flight to the Lewa Wildlife Conservancy. Upon arrival, your host will pick and transfer you to the Sirikoi lodge. Here, you will enjoy game drives.
The Lewa Wildlife Conservancy sprawls over the Laikipia plains and is popular among celebrities, conservationists, writers, and photographers. Its visitors enjoy some of the most spectacular wildlife viewings Kenya offers. The conservancy’s landscape covers mountainous areas, open grasslands, and river valleys, where over 350 birds and 70 mammal species live.
Its wildlife is diverse and abundant, featuring many rare species such as the reticulated giraffe, black and white rhino. You can also view the largest resident population of Grevy’s zebra in the world. Lewa’s wide range of terrains supports a full cast of predators and prey. It hosts the world’s largest Grevy zebra’s conservation and 130 happily roaming black and white rhinos.
The Lewa has taken measures to reduce human-wildlife conflict and prevent elephants’ historic migration route disruption. It provides a safe passage for the species and has built an elephant underpass that bypasses the busy Meru-Nanyuki highway, where elephants often encounter human activities.
The Lewa also educates local residents about elephants’ importance as a keystone species. This sensitization has improved their understanding of the value of preserving wildlife. Consequently, it enables the Lewa to work with communities in diffusing human-wildlife conflict and improving elephant conservation outcomes.
After breakfast, we’ll transfer you to the airstrip for your scheduled flight to the Maasai Mara.
Upon arrival, your host will pick you to enjoy a game drive en route to Leopard Hill at noon before proceeding for lunch. Afterward, you’ll have some time to settle into your tented room. Later, join your guide for an afternoon game drive in the conservancy. Naboisho is famous for its bountiful biodiversity, breathtaking beauty, and home to some of Africa’s best wildlife populations.
After breakfast, we’ll transfer you to the airstrip for your scheduled flight back to the Wilson airport, Nairobi, as you end your luxury safari.
