(In case of late arrival, accommodation and transfer can be arranged at an extra cost).

The journey offers a mix of scenery, including the bustling city of Nairobi, open plains, and eventually, the magnificent backdrop of the snow-capped peak of Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s tallest mountain.  You will arrive at the Lodge in time for lunch with a little time to relax before heading out for an evening game drive between 1600hrs to 1830hrs.

Enjoy your first game viewing drive in search of the ‘big five’ among other animals against the backdrop of Africa's highest mountain-Mount Kilimanjaro. Return to your lodge for dinner and overnight.

Day 2 Explore Amboseli National Park

An early morning game drive will be ideal for this day. During that time of the morning, you can see the snowcapped Mt Kilimanjaro which is at the Tanzanian border. Most of the predators might also be spotted as they wade though the wet grass back to their hiding areas. Amboseli is well known to habour one of the largest 'Tuskers' Tim and Echo, the most researched Elephant.

You will thereafter go back to the lodge for lunch as you recharge for an afternoon game drive to cover the remaining part of Amboseli National Park.

You will arrive at your Lodge for lunch and after go out to the Lake for an afternoon boat ride to enjoy the lake’s fresh waters as you view numerous water life that includes birds and animals.

We will glide by hippos and transfer you for a guided walking safari at Crescent Island Game Sanctuary. This beautiful piece of paradise hosts an abundance of bird life, especially large numbers of pelicans, cormorant and fish eagles. Walk amongst Giraffes, Zebras and more and see hippos grazing in the cool afternoon air or resting under acacia trees in the heat of day. The scenic beauty and sense of freedom in this little Sanctuary has seen many film makers alight on its shores to film herds of wildebeest, water buck and zebra passing through the grassy savannah.
