6-Day Amboseli & Masai Mara Experience.

Day 1: Nairobi to Amboseli National Park

Your safari begins with a morning drive from Nairobi through open plains and small Maasai settlements on your way to Amboseli National Park. As you enter the park, the towering presence of Mount Kilimanjaro forms a dramatic backdrop to vast herds of elephants strolling across dusty plains. Giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, and numerous bird species add colour to the scenery. After lunch at your lodge or camp, you set out for an afternoon game drive—perfect for capturing silhouettes of elephants against the mountain and observing predators beginning to stir as temperatures cool. The day ends with a serene sunset as Kilimanjaro glows in soft evening light.

Day 2: Full-Day Amboseli Exploration

Dawn is one of the most magical times in Amboseli, as Mount Kilimanjaro often emerges clearly in the early morning light. Today you embark on a full-day game drive across the park’s wetlands, dry lakebeds, and acacia-dotted landscapes. Elephant families dominate the scenery, moving gracefully through marshlands and dusty plains. Lions, hyenas, buffaloes, cheetahs, and countless birds add to the diversity. The day’s rhythm alternates between quiet moments beside marshes and exciting encounters with large mammals. You return to your lodge for a relaxing evening with views of Kilimanjaro’s fading silhouette.

Day 3: Amboseli to Nairobi & Flight to Masai Mara

After breakfast, you enjoy a final short game drive in Amboseli before heading back to Nairobi. From Wilson Airport, you board a scheduled bush flight to the Masai Mara—an unforgettable journey that reveals Kenya’s patchwork of highlands, rivers, and endless plains from the air. Upon landing in the vast Mara ecosystem, you are welcomed by your guide and transferred to your lodge or tented camp. As the sun sets, lions may be heard roaring in the distance, marking the wild beginning of your Mara experience.

Day 4: Full-Day Game Viewing in Masai Mara

Your first full day in the Masai Mara begins at sunrise, when wildlife is at its most active. The Mara’s rolling grasslands and riverbanks are filled with iconic scenes—lion prides patrolling territories, cheetahs scouting for prey, elephants moving in quiet family groups, and giraffes stretching across acacia silhouettes. Depending on the season, you may witness the Great Migration, where thousands of wildebeests and zebras travel across the plains in search of fresh grazing. A picnic lunch in the bush allows you to remain deep within wildlife-rich areas throughout the day. By evening, you return to camp with memories of dramatic encounters and golden savannah light.

Day 5: More Masai Mara Exploration

Another day in the Mara offers new perspectives and wildlife moments. You may track lion prides, search for leopards hidden in tree branches, or follow cheetahs across open plains as they prepare for daylight hunts. The Mara’s diversity ensures that every game drive reveals something different—from hyenas interacting around kills to huge buffalo herds grazing alongside topi and elands. After lunch at the lodge, you enjoy an afternoon game drive or optional activities such as a Maasai village visit. The day ends with a warm campfire and the night sounds of the African wild.

Day 6: Sunrise Safari & Return to Nairobi

Your final day begins with a sunrise game drive—the perfect moment to witness soft golden light sweeping across the plains. After capturing your final wildlife sightings, you return to camp for breakfast before beginning your journey back to Nairobi, either by flight or road transfer depending on your schedule. As the safari concludes, you carry home memories of elephants beneath Kilimanjaro, lions in the Mara grasslands, and the rich natural beauty that defines Kenya’s most celebrated national parks.
