The snow capped peaks of Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's highest
mountain at 5,895m, dominate every aspect of
Amboseli
National Park. Open grassland and savannah surround swamps
and springs, fed by underground rivers from Kilimanjaro's
melting snow, permanent watering places for the elephant,
buffalo, lion, leopard, cheetah and hosts of plains game.
The area outside the Park is home to the Masai people, tall,
proud, nomadic warriors who maintain their age-old cultures
and traditions and live in complete harmony with the
wildlife around them.
AMBOSELI CAMPING. - Ref: MA 034
Duration 3 days 2 nights
Departs daily
Day 1 Nairobi - Amboseli L . D
Leaving Nairobi in the morning, you drive across the Athi
plains towards the Kenya/Tanzania border post of Namanga and
from there through arid Masai ranchlands to your campsite in
Amboseli National Park for a late picnic lunch. Later in the
afternoon enjoy a game drive in the surrounding area before
returning to Camp for hot showers and the evening spent
around the camp fire.
Day 2 Amboseli B . L . D
After an early breakfast you leave for a full day's game
viewing with Mount Kilimanjaro, usually clear in the early
morning, as a spectacular backdrop for your photographs.
You
stop for a picnic lunch at Look Out Hill or another shady
spot and return to the Camp in the late afternoon. The
evening is spent around the camp fire listening to the
sounds of the African night - the distant roar of the lion
and the doleful, whooping 'laugh' of the hyaena.
Day 3 Amboseli - Nairobi B . L
After breakfast, enjoy an early morning game drive before
departing on your return journey to Nairobi, stopping en
route under a shady tree for a picnic lunch.
