Itinerary
Day 1: Nairobi to Amboseli National Park
Your safari adventure begins with a warm welcome from the Jossec Safaris team before setting off on a scenic drive from Nairobi to Amboseli. Upon arrival, enjoy a sumptuous lunch at your lodge or camp, surrounded by stunning views of Mount Kilimanjaro. In the afternoon, embark on your first game drive, where you’ll have a chance to see elephants, lions, giraffes, and a myriad of bird species. As the sun sets, return to your accommodation for a delicious dinner and a relaxing evening under the African sky.
Day 2: Full Day in Amboseli
Spend a full day exploring Amboseli, starting with an early morning game drive to witness the wildlife waking up against the backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro. This is prime time for spotting elephants, zebras, buffalo, and various bird species. After breakfast back at the lodge, relax before an afternoon game drive that will take you deeper into the park's unique landscapes. Return to your lodge for dinner and a peaceful overnight stay.
Day 3: Amboseli to Lake Nakuru National Park
After breakfast, say goodbye to Amboseli as you make your way to Lake Nakuru National Park. Arrive in time for lunch at your lodge, followed by an afternoon game drive. Lake Nakuru is a bird lover’s paradise, home to thousands of flamingos that color the lake’s shores pink, as well as rhinos, lions, and the elusive leopard. Take in the beauty of the diverse landscapes before returning to your lodge for dinner and relaxation.
Day 4: Lake Nakuru to Masai Mara National Reserve
Begin the day with breakfast before heading to the Masai Mara, Kenya’s most famous reserve. After checking in and enjoying lunch at your lodge or camp, you’ll venture out on an afternoon game drive. The Mara offers unmatched opportunities to see the Big Five—lion, elephant, buffalo, rhino, and leopard—as well as cheetahs, giraffes, and wildebeest roaming the vast savannah. End your day with a cozy dinner and an overnight stay.
Day 5: Full Day in Masai Mara
Prepare for a full day of excitement with morning and afternoon game drives in the Masai Mara. If you’re visiting during the Great Migration, you may witness wildebeest and zebras crossing the Mara River, a dramatic spectacle of survival. You’ll also track predators like lions, cheetahs, and leopards as they hunt. In between, enjoy breakfast and lunch at your lodge, with some time to relax. After an exhilarating day, return to the lodge for dinner and a night of rest.
Day 6: Masai Mara to Nairobi
After breakfast. Then, pack your bags and say goodbye to the Mara as you drive back to Nairobi, taking in the beautiful landscapes and spotting any last-minute wildlife along the way.
