Overview

About this journey

Two of Kenya's most dramatic national parks, one unforgettable journey. Amboseli is where elephants rule — vast herds of 50 or more cross the sun-baked plains with Kilimanjaro's snow-capped peak rising behind them, creating what many photographers call Africa's single most iconic image. After two nights among Amboseli's 1,500-strong elephant population, continue east to Tsavo — Kenya's largest and wildest park, where red-dusted elephants roam among baobab forests, the crystal-clear Mzima Springs harbour hippos and crocodiles, and the raw, untamed landscape stretches to every horizon. Tsavo's predators include the descendants of the infamous man-eaters of Tsavo, adding an edge to every game drive. This 6-day safari is perfect for wildlife photographers, elephant lovers, and anyone who wants to see Kenya beyond the Mara.
