TAS 06: 7 Days/6 Nights AMBOSELI
- LAKE NAKURU - MAASAI MARA
Day 1:Picked from the airport by our representative
and from there drive direct past the scenic Athi Plains and into
the bushy country of Amboseli National Park. Amboseli National
Park is a landscape dominated everywhere by the glistening, majestic
snowcap of the mighty Kilimanjaro - a fitting backdrop to the
wild region. It is also the region where pastoral Masai and their
cattle have lived in harmony with wild creatures for many a century.
After lunch, experience an afternoon game drive at the foot of
Africa's highest mountain. Dinner and overnight is at one of the
Amboseli Lodges, located in the very heart of the Amboseli National
Park.

Day 2:
Early morning game drive that is rewarded by magnificent views
of the mighty Mt Kilimanjaro with its snowcapped summit appearing
pink in the rising sun. Amboseli is known for its abundance of
Elephants as well as Hippopotamus, Giraffe, Lion and Black Rhino.
The snows of Kilimanjaro, white and crystalline, form a majestic
backdrop to one of Kenya's most spectacular displays of wildlife,
creating Kenya's most sought after photographer's paradise. After
lunch, an extensive game drive is followed by dinner and overnight
at one of the Amboseli Lodges.
Day 3:
After breakfast, depart for the Mt Kenya region. Lunch will be
at a base hotel from where you will be transferred to your tree
lodge. Enjoy the unique experience of all night and unlimited
game viewing. Dinner and overnight at a tree lodge surrounded
by forest and overlooking an illuminated waterhole and salt lick.
Day 4:
After breakfast, transfer to base hotel
for onward journey to Nakuru. Arrive in time for lunch. Enjoy
an afternoon game drive in Lake Nakuru National Park. The park
provides a sanctuary for the rhino. Lake Nakuru has always been
considered a flamingo lake par excellence. The contrast and apparent
dislocation between the shallow soda lake with its primeval birds
and the animated woods all around it give Lake Nakuru National
Park a very distinctive appeal. Dinner and overnight at a lodge
overlooking the lake.
Day 5:
After breakfast, depart for Masai Mara - the land of vast migrating
herds. Arrive in time for lunch. In the afternoon, embark on a
game drive to get a closer look at the Mara. Return to an archetypal
Mara lodge/tented camp for sundowners, dinner and overnight stay.
Day 6:
Awaken to the sounds of the big game country and venture out to
TASorb the enormity of the Mara. In this country of breathtaking
vistas, view its vast assemblages of plains game together with
their associated predators: Buffalo, Black Rhino, Hippopotamus,
Leopard, Cheetah, Common Zebra, Coke's Hartebeest, White bearded
Gnu, Oribi, Warthog, and Thompson's and Grant's Gazelles. An early
evening game drive to catch up on all that was missed. All meals
and overnight stay are at the lodge.
Day 7: After breakfast, return to Nairobi
arriving in for early lunch and later transferred to the Airport
for your next destination.
