Extend your safari to include Amboseli, one of the most amazing ecosystems, containing vast herds of elephants, marsh wetlands, and dust tunnels that move along the landscape.   Capture stunning images of the large herds of elephants and zebras as they roam through the dusty plains. Photograph expansive views filled with giraffes and other exotic African wildlife, with Mount Kilimanjaro as a backdrop. You will not only capture iconic images, but you will also be reminded of an authentic Africa of days gone by.

 

ITINERARY

 

Day 1 February 28, 2016

Arrive in Nairobi, and be transported to your hotel along the Nairobi National Park.

Day 2 February 29, 2016

You will meet in the main dining room for breakfast and have a safari briefing before hopping into your Land Cruisers, and departing for Amboseli National Reserve.

We will game drive to our beautifully styled African lodge centrally located in the reserve. Arriving in time for a late lunch, you will have time to relax and settle in before our first game drive.

Day 3 & 4 March 1 &2, 2016

Rise early for a quick cup of coffee and biscuits, before heading out for our morning game drive. In the morning, the herds slowly begin to come down from the mountains and cross the plains of Amboseli on their way to the marshes, centrally located in the national park. Our focus here will be to capture these amazing herds with Mount Kilimanjaro in the background. We will return to our beautiful lodge, located next to the marsh area where the herds gather during the day and have lunch. There will be time to relax, lie by the pool, or download images before heading out on our afternoon game drive.

We return to lodge in the evening and meet for famous sundowners, overlooking the plains of Amboseli and exchanging exciting stories of what we experienced that day.
