Your Itinerary
DAY 1: Depart UK.
DAY 2: Arrive Nairobi.
On arrival in Nairobi, you will be met by our representative and transferred to your hotel for an overnight stay. With the rest of your day at your leisure, why not take the opportunity to explore Kenya's colourful capital or relax at your hotel?
DAY 3: Nairobi - Amboseli National Park.
This morning heralds the start of your aerial adventures as you take to the skies in a light aircraft over Amboseli National Park. Soak up the breathtaking views as your 45-minute flight takes you soaring over Kenya's beautiful landscapes, giving you incredible views of Mount Kilimanjaro. This afternoon, follow your flightseeing with an exciting game drive through this renowned national park, which is home to a rich array of wildlife, including a huge elephant population and lion, leopard and cheetah. Tonight, stay in a safari lodge in a secluded area of Amboseli where you're treated to stunning views over snow-capped Kilimanjaro. (B, L, D)
DAY 4: Amboseli National Park.
Set off at daybreak for a pre-breakfast game drive - an unforgettable chance to see the park in the hazy early morning light. Afterwards, sit down to lunch at your lodge before rounding off the day with a further, late afternoon game drive. Have your camera poised for elephants, buffalo, zebra and giraffe in the grasslands and keep a special lookout for Amboseli's most celebrated residents - lions, leopards and cheetahs. Later, why not celebrate your last night in this magical spot by joining us for cocktails as the sun goes down? (B, L, D)

This arid reserve in northern Kenya sits on the Ewaso Ng'iro River and is favoured by wildlife enthusiasts for its desert-like landscapes and location off the main tourist track. Enjoy a game drive en route to your lodge, which is beautifully positioned in Buffalo Springs Game Reserve on the banks of the Ewaso Ng'iro and commands fantastic views over the Samburu's rugged hills. After lunch, take a full game drive, with the chance of spotting the reserve's rare Reticulated Giraffe and Somali Ostriches, as well as lion, leopard, cheetah, zebra, elephant and oryx. (B, L, D)

Drink in the views as your 90-minute journey takes you high above sprawling savannah and acacia woods, which giraffe, zebra and the 'Big Five' of lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhinoceros all call home. After landing, enjoy an introduction to this incredible reserve with a game drive on the way to your lodge. After lunch at the lodge, set off on a further drive, watching for more of the Mara's wildlife. If you're here in autumn, you may be lucky enough to witness the magnificent 'Great Migration' of thousands of wildebeest, gazelles and zebras. (B, L, D)
