Amboseli National Park · Namanga border (optional drop-off)
.">Amboseli National Park is renowned for its large herds of free-ranging African elephants, along with wildebeest, giraffes, lions, zebras, hyenas, monkeys and antelope, all set against the backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest peak. The area is also home to the Maasai, a proud nomadic people known around the world for their warrior traditions. This short two-day safari from Nairobi gives you an afternoon and a morning game drive in the park, with the best chance of clear views of Kilimanjaro in the early morning, and it can end at the Namanga border if you are continuing to Tanzania.
Nairobi · Amboseli National Park · Namanga border (optional drop-off)
At 08:00 you are picked up from your Nairobi hotel or Jomo Kenyatta International Airport and drive south to Amboseli National Park, with a game drive en route. You arrive at around 13:00, in time for lunch at your lodge, and relax at leisure. At 16:00 you head out for an afternoon game drive in the park, returning to your lodge at around 18:30 for dinner and an overnight stay.
At 07:30, after breakfast, you drive into the park for a morning game drive. Early morning is often the best time to see Mount Kilimanjaro before the clouds build up over the mountain. At around 12:00 you return to your lodge for lunch, then drive back to Nairobi, where the safari ends. If you are connecting to a safari in Tanzania, your driver-guide can drop you at the Namanga border at no extra cost.
