4 Days: Best of Kenya Safari
Day 1
Tsavo West National Park
After breakfast, you will be picked up from your Nairobi city hotel or Jomo Kenyatta International Airport for your journey to Tsavo West National Park. You’ll travel by road or train along the Nairobi-Mombasa highway, passing through several towns, including Konza Technopolis City—often referred to as the African Silicon Valley. This innovative area is designed as a “smart” city and serves as a hub for technology and knowledge.
Tsavo West National Park is renowned for its iconic red-skinned elephants and a diverse array of endangered wildlife, including the lesser kudu, fringe-eared oryx, wild dogs, and leopards.
With over 500 bird species, it’s also a paradise for birdwatchers. Known as the “Land of Lava,” this park boasts fascinating geological features and is steeped in history, famously linked to the “Man-eaters of Tsavo,” who captured global attention....

Day 2
Amboseli National Park
After a delightful breakfast at the lodge/camp, you will embark on a scenic drive to Amboseli National Park, a region celebrated for its magnificent herds of elephants. Much of this recognition is attributed to Dr. Cynthia Moss, an American wildlife researcher who relocated to Africa in 1968. Dr. Moss has dedicated her career to studying the Amboseli elephants, focusing on their distribution, demographics, social structures, and behaviors.
The name “Amboseli” derives from a Maasai term meaning “salty dust,” which aptly describes the park’s unique landscape....

Amboseli National Park
The next day promises to be a highlight as you explore the diverse terrains of Amboseli National Park. From seasonal lakes and marshlands to open plains, lava-strewn thorn bushes, and acacia woodlands, the park offers a variety of stunning landscapes. Your private, professional Driver/Guide will expertly position the safari jeep to capture those perfect “National Geographic” moments.
Your adventure will also include a visit to a local Maasai village, where you will experience the rich cultural heritage of Kenya’s nomadic and warrior-like people, who have preserved their traditional ways of life despite modern pressures. The guided village tour will be led by the chief’s son, who will provide insights into village life, show you his mother’s house, and introduce you to the village medicine man....
