1 night Nairobi, 2 nights
Amboseli, 2 nights Samburu, 2
nights Maasai Mara.
This
safari includes 3 of Kenya’s finest wildlife areas and offers the
chance to see a wide variety of animals in varying habitat, from the
dusty plains of Amboseli overlooking the snow capped spectacle of Mt
Kilimanjaro, to the hot, dry bush country of Samburu with the Uaso Nyiro
River and finally on to the grassy savannahs of the Maasai Mara.
The safari is followed by the opportunity to relax at a beach hotel on
Kenya’s south coast. The
advantage of this safari is that all transfers between the parks are by
light aircraft which means less time spent driving over bumpy roads and
more time viewing the animals. All game drives are in 4 wheel drive safari
vehicles. Accommodation is in first class safari lodges which have bar,
dining room, swimming pool and rooms with en-suite bathrooms.
