SAFARI OVERVIEW
5 Days/ 4 Nights Maasai Mara – Amboseli from Nairobi takes you to the most famous reserves
in Kenya. This safari takes you to three of Kenya’s game sanctuaries– with a different experience
at each.

wildlife in such variety and abundance that it is difficult to believe: over 450 species of animals
have been recorded here
Then to Amboseli, which sits on the lower slopes of mighty Mount Kilimanjaro–Africa’s highest.
The animal pictures arising against the dramatic backdrop of the mountain will thrill the
photography enthusiast.
Detailed Itinerary
Depart by road via the Great Rift Valley to arrive at Maasai Mara in time for lunch. Along the way
we will have a distant view of Mt. Longonot, Mt. Margaret and the pyrethrum plantations.
After lunch a sensational game drive is planned. The Mara offers wildlife in such variety and
abundance that it is difficult to believe: over 450 species of animals have been recorded here.
You will easily see lions, rhinos, hippos, crocodiles, giraffe, wildebeests, zebras, buffalo,
warthogs, hyenas, jackals, wild dogs, buffalo, leopard, many kinds of antelopes and elephant. It is
in the Mara that perhaps the most spectacular event of the natural world takes place.
4Nights 5Days Kenya Wildlife Safari
This is the annual migration of millions of wildebeest and zebra from the Serengeti (Tanzania) in
search of water and pasture. Following on their heels are the predators of the savanna- lion,
cheetah, wild dog, jackal, hyena and vultures.
We spend a full day in the Maasai Mara on morning and afternoon ‘Spice’ game drives. The trees
in the distance might turn out to be a family of Giraffes.
Those clump of bushes a pride of Lions, and the rock that moves a Rhino lumbering out of your
way. With diligence and some luck, you may encounter a family of Cheetahs, or a herd of
Elephants crossing the path in front of you.
Large animals are not the only entertainment – a family of warthogs may amuse you, running as
fast as their little legs will carry them, until they forget why they are rushing and stop to regroup.
