Detailed Itinerary

Day 1 Arrival in Kenya
You'll be picked up from the airport. Accommodation before the tour starts can be arranged for an extra cost.

We depart by road for Tsavo West National Park, arriving in time for lunch and then an optional afternoon or evening game drive. Tsavo West is the most visited section in Tsavo National Park, offering many attractions apart from its wildlife. The foremost is the famous Mzima Springs, where up to 227.3 million litres of cool, crystal-clear water flows out of the ground through porous volcanic rocks. The water is believed to originate from Chuyulu Hills via an underground river. Return for dinner and your overnight stay.

Note: Accommodation can be upgraded to higher-level options or downgraded to more economical ones (price reduction).

After breakfast, we have a full-day game drive with a packed lunch. Other interesting places to visit are the Roaring Rocks, which get their name from the wind that hurtles through them. There are wonderful views over Tsavo from the top of a 98m rock face; similar views can be experienced from the Poacher's Lookout. The volcanic Chaimu Crater, less than 200 years old and composed of black coke, is worth visiting and can be climbed if interested. The area is a good place to look out for klipspringer, a small antelope as agile as its Swahili name mbuzi mawe (mountain goat). In the southwest corner of Tsavo West is Lake Jipe, with the Kenyan-Tanzanian border running through it. Return to your accommodation for dinner and overnight.

Note: Accommodation can be upgraded to higher-level options or downgraded to more economical ones (price reduction).

Have an early start and drive to Amboseli National Park. Upon arrival, check in at your accommodation and spend the day at leisure. Amboseli National Park is situated due south of Nairobi. Most of the park consists of a dry, ancient lake bed and fragile grassland with patches of acacia woodland, while in the southern area, there are several small rocky volcanic hills. Around the swamps Ol Okenya, Ol Tukai and Enkongo Narok, the vegetation is lush with yellow-barked acacias and phoenix palms. Return to your accommodation for dinner and overnight.

Note: Accommodation can be upgraded to higher-level options or downgraded to more economical ones (price reduction).

Rise early for good views of Mount Kilimanjaro before clouds build up over the summit, with a packed lunch. After breakfast, an optional visit to a Maasai village can be arranged. The visit reveals the singing and dancing that are part of their daily lives and sacred rituals. A glimpse into their homes and social structure is a poignant experience.

Despite its changing habitat, Amboseli National Park is possibly the best wildlife area in Africa to experience elephants at close range. Left unharassed by poachers, elephants feeding and bathing in the swamps form the highlights of any safari. Return for dinner and your overnight stay.

Note: Accommodation can be upgraded to higher-level options or downgraded to more economical ones (price reduction).

After an early morning game drive, you will return to your accommodation for breakfast. After breakfast, you will be transferred to your hotel or the airport in Nairobi.

From the very beginning, Christine and Judith from Donwel Tours were highly atte (Read More)ntive to what we were looking to get from our first ever trip to Kenya, and Africa, for that matter. We wanted to cover a lot of ground, and were going from one agency to another before we found Donwel as most agents couldn't quite squeeze everything we wanted into our itinerary. Judith and Christine however made it all possible. Good quality stays everywhere, regular communication through the trip to ensure we were ok and were getting what we wanted. Special shoutout to Teeman, our driver who absolutely fantastic, drove safely and ensured our safety and comfort throughout the trip, regularly coordinating with Christine. This is an excellent team and we would highly recommend their services.
Everything was perfect.

I reached out to Wild Portraits via a safari service website that featured numer (Read More)ous tour operators. Among the competition, James stood out due to his exceptional patience, politeness, and genuine curiosity displayed during our initial phone calls. James swiftly emerged as the singular operator I wished to proceed with, and here’s why: - Having substantial on-ground experience from spending extensive time on the safaris himself, he adeptly crafted a honeymoon package that perfectly suited my wife and me. - He adeptly navigated our budget flexibilities and constraints to arrange an impressive array of delightful lodges and activities, focusing on maximising our day-to-day adventures, ensuring each day on safari and at the lodges offered a unique experience. - A skilled photographer himself, James's comprehensive knowledge of various reserves and animal behaviours provided him with a distinct advantage in predicting animal locations and optimal times for photography, whether capturing sunrises, sunsets, or other moments. - Our priority was to maximise game time and reserve experiences. James made certain our vehicle was ready, complete with packed hot breakfast boxes, for a prompt 6 AM departure every morning of the trip. - Remarkably patient, he addressed all my queries, irrespective of whether they seemed 'silly' or insightful—from 'what to wear' at safaris, potential places to explore, to the animals we might encounter. In summary, my wife and I enjoyed an extraordinary experience in Kenya, with Wild Portraits Safaris significantly enhancing the quality of that journey. We are eagerly anticipating more safaris and look forward to embarking on them with James and his team!
