Soaring mountain ranges give way to plummeting valleys as streams cascade over waterfalls, making Aberdares National Park a landscape lovers paradise. With over 250 species of bird, it is also a haven for bird watching enthusiasts.

Located in the heart of Aberdares National Park, The Ark is known as a "tree hotel", built on pylons in such a way as not to disturb the animals around the waterhole. Its three decks provide superb vantage points for game viewing around the floodlit waterhole.

Just 40 kilometers south of Mombasa is Shimba Hills National Reserve and your opportunity to join a game viewing safari. You may spot leopards, elephants, Maasai giraffes, zebras, antelopes, ostriches, warthogs, monkeys and even the occasional lion.

The major attraction of the wildlife population is the rare Sable antelope, found in the same habitats as several large herds of buffalo. Whilst never numerous in Kenya it is thought Shimba Hills is home to the only viable population in existence.

Before your afternoon of game viewing, lunch is served at Shimba Lodge at around midday. The lodge overlooks a water hole often frequented by elephants and occasionally leopards.

This unique wildlife sanctuary is just a few kilometers from Nairobi's bustling city center. Despite its proximity over 50 species of mammals can be found there, including four of the "Big Five". The park is one of Kenya's most successful rhino sanctuaries and sightings of Black Rhino are almost guaranteed.

The park has a rich and diverse range of birdlife with 400 species recorded, however all species are not always present and some are seasonal.

Your tour also includes a visit to the animal orphanage. Located inside the National Park, the orphanage is home to wounded or orphaned animals which are nurtured back to health. You can expect to see lions, leopards, cheetahs, warthogs, cranes, antelopes, baboons and more.
