Amboseli & Mara
5 nights, 2 distinct landscapes — kenya highlights.
From the first transfer to the final morning, every stop earns its place — elephants under Kilimanjaro; big cats and the migration.
Add a night in Nairobi before or after — a relaxed arrival or a buffer before your flight home. Just ask.

What you'll see
The journey, one day at a time
South to Kilimanjaro's foot
Fly from Nairobi to Amboseli beneath Kilimanjaro, then take a first drive as the big-tusked herds move down to the swamps.
A day among the herds
Morning and evening drives for Amboseli's elephants, with the mountain as a backdrop whenever the cloud lifts.
Into the Mara
Hop by light aircraft into the Maasai Mara and head out on a first game drive as the light softens — plains game, elephant and the first cats on the way to camp.
Full day on the plains
Morning and afternoon drives with a Maasai guide, routed by where the predators are moving, with the long midday hours to rest at camp.
Deeper into the reserve
A full day further afield — river lines, kopjes and open grassland — with a picnic lunch out in the bush.
Fly out
A short bush flight back to Nairobi connects to your onward flight — or a coast extension, if you're not ready to leave.
The season changes what you see.
The migration window
The wildebeest are in the Mara and the river crossings are on — the headline months, and the busiest. Book well ahead.
Resident game, green plains
The Big Five never leave. Fewer vehicles, lower rates, newborns in the grass and clean light for photography.
