Imagine a safari that is… …sophisticated and exclusive, offering privacy, flexibility, and the undivided attention of the Lodge Manager and staff, who are consummate hosts. Enjoy your personal driver-guides to the bush, as well as dinner companions around a great table every evening (but only if that is your desire, of course). Activities are not fixed according to a predetermined schedule… …but decided by you, on the spot, following your impulses. Every evening or morning, your safari guide will describe various options for the day. Then it’s your call (such decisions!). Choices for the day might include… Full-day game drive in search of animals’ hideouts! Picnic lunch in the bush under a tree Village visit - At extra cost Balloon safari - At extra cost Bush dinner - At extra cost Bush breakfast - At extra cost Perhaps most memorable of all will be… …the people you meet during your African sojourn, from the hospitable wait staff in each camp to the unforgettable wildlife encounters.

Trip Description

You will be led by our expert guide throughout these Amboseli and Tsavo tours. They will provide insightful knowledge about the parks’ wildlife and landscapes, ensuring you don’t miss any key places of interest. The views of Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa, are a sight to behold, and the snow-capped peak rising above the clouds dominates every aspect of Amboseli. The park shelters more than 425 species of birds and has an enormous elephant population; you will quickly become accustomed to seeing elephants roaming in front of your lodge as you rise to catch those first beams of light.
