    Getting started

    Begin with complimentary Nairobi hotel and airport pickup and drop-off in a customized safari vehicle with a pop-up roof. After meeting your professional English-speaking driver-guide, you set out on the scenic drive from Nairobi to Amboseli National Park. The road transfer leads straight to your budget safari camp stay, where you check in before your first activity.

    Amboseli National Park safari

    What to expect

    Across three days, you travel through Amboseli National Park in a safari vehicle with a pop-up roof, focusing on morning and afternoon game drives and time at key viewpoints. The park is known for open plains, views of wildlife, and designated picnic spots that break up your driving time.

    Features

    • Morning and afternoon game drives take you across dusty plains where binoculars and cameras are recommended for wildlife viewing, and changing weather conditions require comfortable clothing and a hat for sun protection.

    • A picnic lunch at Observation Hill gives you a set pause during the day and fits into the flow of your scenic drive inside Amboseli National Park.

    • A professional English-speaking driver-guide provides tracking and wildlife information while you travel in a safari vehicle with a pop-up roof that is used throughout the Nairobi road transfers and the in-park routes.

    • All Amboseli National Park entrance fees are covered in advance, so your park access is handled for you during the multi-day itinerary.

    • A budget safari camp stay with full-board meals supplies breakfast, lunch, and dinner, supporting the full schedule of game drives without extra planning for food.

    • The experience includes an en-route game drive on return to Nairobi, built into your road transfer so that travel time back to the city still features wildlife viewing.

    Wrapping up

    Your last en-route game drive leads back toward Nairobi, where the road journey ends with your included Nairobi hotel and airport pickup and drop-off service bringing you to your final stop.
