Drive from Nairobi to Amboseli
Our morning and afternoon game drives see us in search of a staggering array of wilderness experiences, from the magnificent herds of game that sweep across these dusty plains, to the majestic sight of some of the 700 or so elephants for which Amboseli is justly famous. We may even be lucky enough to perhaps encounter the rare black rhino. Overnight: Amboseli AA Lodge.
After early breakfast we check out and depart towards the border town of Namanga. After customs and immigration procedures, we cross into Tanzania and continue to Arusha (160 KM/approximately 2 ½ hours – this does not include any delays that may occur at the border). After lunch in Arusha, we resume our journey to Tarangire National park. Enjoy a short game drive before checking in at your hotel – Sangaiwe Tented Lodge.
Enjoy an early morning game drive in Lake Manyara National park. Return to the lodge for breakfast. Further game drive till lunch time. After lunch, depart for the spectacular setting of the Ngorongoro Crater. Enjoy the rest of the afternoon at your lodge on the crater rim. Dinner and Overnight: Rhino Lodge.
After breakfast we enter the magnificent natural amphitheatre of Ngorongoro’s volcanic crater, home to some 30,000 animals and the remarkable setting for one of the most breathtaking wildlife experiences on the planet. The scene is classic Africa, with seemingly endless herds of big game, large predators and the sweep of the African savannah. After lunch, there is an opportunity to visit a local village to learn something of life and tradition in these wild lands. Dinner and Overnight: Rhino Lodge.
This morning we visit Olduvai Gorge, the site of the discovery of some of the oldest human remains ever found, before continuing to the Serengeti National Park (160 KM/approximately 3 hours – travelling time depends on game-viewing opportunities), where we stay 2 nights at the Ikoma Tented Camp. Dinner and Overnight: Ikoma Tented Camp.
The oldest of Tanzania’s game parks, the Serengeti is a staggering spectacle of incredible diversity, where magnificent herds of wildebeest and zebra form an uneasy alliance against the ever present threat of some of Africa’s most powerful predators. Dinner and Overnight: Ikoma Tented Camp.
We plan to depart very early today. It is going to be a relatively long day, and drive. We leave with picnic lunch boxes. After an early breakfast depart for Kenya-Tanzania border at Isabania (300 KM/approximately 5 hours), where we cross back into Kenya and head for the breathtaking beauty of the Masai Mara National Reserve (100KM/approximately 3 hours – travelling time depends on game viewing opportunities). On arrival transfer to the Mara River Camp for a stay of 3 nights. Dinner and Overnight Mara River Camp.
With almost every species of animal great and small in the park, this is one of Africa’s premier wildlife areas and today we enjoy both morning and afternoon game drives in search of the ‘Big Five’ (lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant and rhino).
This is safari at its best and Africa at its most spectacular. Heartland of the Masai, southwest Kenya presents a landscape where Africa is laid bare in all its majesty. Here the endless struggle for survival is played out across the vast open plains and riverine forests of this captivating land.
Each year the Mara explodes into life, as the annual migration of great herds of wildebeest journey from the Serengeti to fresh pastures in the north. Between July and October the Mara River becomes the setting for the crossing of some 1.3 million animals, bringing with them the inevitable predators and the inevitable dramas. Dinner and Overnight Mara River Camp.
