Set on the Kenyan plains with Mt Kilimanjaro as a backdrop in the distance, Amboseli is a "must-do" for most visitors to Kenya. The park is world-famous for its substantial population of African Elephants which can be seen in herds of over 100 individuals. In particular the large bull elephants have some of the largest tusks in the animal kingdom.

Also waiting to be spotted are ample herds of buffalo, wildebeest, zebra and impala, as well as giraffes and warthog. With all this variety you can be sure a healthy population of predators also call Amboseli home. Lions, leopards, caracals, cheetahs, jackals, hyenas and serval cats are all frequently seen in the park.

Your first night will be spent at a lodge within Amboseli.

Next stop is the Kilaguni Serena Safari Lodge, the first lodge ever built inside a Kenyan National Park. Adjacent to a busy waterhole, the lodge offers fantastic game viewing right on site.

Depart early in the morning and for the 56 mile (90 kilometer) drive through the Rift Valley to Hell's Gate National Park, stopping for lunch in Naivasha.

On arrival at the park you will visit the Geothermal Power Plant at Ol Karia and the Hot Springs. Hell's Gate is the only Kenyan park that officially allows transport by walking and bicycling, and the small perimeters of the park give you a chance to see a variety of wildlife.
