This 5-day road safari brings together Kenya’s top wildlife destinations – Amboseli and Tsavo West National Parks. The tour begins in Nairobi and could end either in Nairobi or Mombasa on the Kenyan coast.

Your safari begins with a drive to Amboseli National Park – most famous for its views of elephants. Located 160 miles from Nairobi, Amboseli National Park park offers a stunning view of both Mt. Kilimanjaro and Mount Meru.

As well as its famously photogenic elephants, Amboseli is also home to heavyweight predators like lion, leopard, hyena and cheetah, as well as their prey such as buffalo, giraffe, impala, zebra, cheetah, giraffes and antelope.

Amboseli boosts rich bird life, with over 400 bird species recorded, including the globally threatened Madagascar Pond-Heron, Lesser Flamingo, Lesser Kestrel, and Possibly Africa’s most sought-after bird, the Shoebill which has a one-time record in the area and over 40 birds of prey.

After 2 nights in Amboseli, we drive to one of Africa’s biggest conservation areas, Tsavo home to red elephants, as well as to members of the rest of the “Big 5” African animals (buffalo, African lions, leopards, and rhinos).

Tsavo West offers some of the most magnificent game viewing in the world and attractions include elephants, rhinos, Hippos, lions, cheetahs, leopards, Buffalos, diverse plant and bird species including the threatened corncrake and near threatened Basra Reed Warbler.

Visit attractions such as Mzima Springs to watch the hippos bathing underwater, visit the Lava flows and caves for geological interest; explore the caves, or hike along with the lava flow.
