Safari Overview
Fly from the coast to Amboseli for elephant herds, Kilimanjaro views and two nights at Ol Tukai Lodge.
Swap the long road journey for a short flight and land straight in Amboseli National Park, famous for its free-ranging elephant herds and unforgettable views of Mount Kilimanjaro. You stay two nights at Ol Tukai Lodge with morning and afternoon game drives, an optional visit to a Maasai community and time to relax by the pool in the heat of the day.
