This 7-day safari weaves through Kenya’s diverse landscapes—from the elephant-strewn plains of Amboseli beneath Mount Kilimanjaro, to the volcanic cliffs of Hell’s Gate, the legendary savannahs of the Masai Mara, and the serene waters of Lake Naivasha. You'll witness iconic wildlife on thrilling game drives, walk among zebras on Crescent Island, cycle through dramatic gorges, and float past hippos on a boat safari. Each day brings a new horizon, ending with a return to Nairobi—your heart full, your spirit stirred by the wild rhythm of Africa.
Your 7-day Amboseli safari begins with a morning pickup from your hotel in Nairobi at 7:00 AM, followed by a scenic drive to Amboseli National Park. Arrive around 12:30 PM and check in at Kibo Safari Camp, Oilepo Camp, Amboseli Serena Lodge or Ol Tukai Lodge, then set out on an exciting afternoon game drive through the park’s open plains beneath the gaze of Mount Kilimanjaro.
After breakfast, begin a full-day game drive at 7:30 AM, exploring Amboseli’s sweeping landscapes and abundant wildlife. Pause for a scenic picnic lunch at Observation Hill, where you’ll enjoy panoramic views of Lake Amboseli and the surrounding savannah teeming with elephants, hippos, and birdlife.
After breakfast, depart Amboseli and journey toward the dramatic landscapes of Hell’s Gate National Park. Upon arrival, check in at Kongoni Lodge, then spend the afternoon exploring the park’s towering cliffs and deep gorges—either by safari vehicle or guided bicycle ride—for a more immersive and adventurous experience.
Breakfast then depart Hell’s Gate and journey across the Great Rift Valley to the legendary Maasai Mara. Arrive in time for lunch and check in at AA Mara Lodge, then set out on a thrilling afternoon game drive at around 3:45 PM, witnessing the savannah come alive as the sun dips toward the horizon.
