Detailed Itinerary

Day 1 Nairobi - Amboseli National Park
Your adventure begins early as you depart Nairobi and head south towards Amboseli National Park. Enroute, enjoy scenic stops for landscape photography and coffee breaks. Arrive at Sentrim Amboseli in time for lunch and some rest after the 4 to 5-hour drive. In the afternoon, embark on your first game drive in search of Amboseli’s iconic elephants and other wildlife. Capture the golden hour with silhouette photography featuring Mount Kilimanjaro as a stunning backdrop. Return to the lodge for dinner and overnight stay.
After breakfast, set out to explore Amboseli National Park. Famous for its large herds of elephants and views of Mount Kilimanjaro, the park also offers the chance to see cheetahs, lions, hippos, zebras, gnus, gazelles, and prolific birdlife around the swamps. With flexible timings tailored for families and photography, the day is yours to enjoy the landscapes and wildlife sightings. Return to your lodge in the evening for dinner and an overnight stay.
Post breakfast, drive towards Tsavo West National Park. Enjoy a game drive enroute and arrive at your lodge for lunch. Later in the afternoon, visit the fascinating Mzima Springs, a crystal-clear water source filtered naturally by volcanic rock. From a submerged viewing platform, observe aquatic life including fish and Nile crocodiles. Continue to the volcanic Mashetani Lava Flow and explore the park's diverse wildlife, including monitor lizards, leopards, lions, buffalos, elephants, and more. Return to Kilaguni Serena Lodge for dinner and overnight.
After breakfast, depart for Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary through Tsavo West. This conservancy spans 28,000 acres and is rich in biodiversity, with acacia and commiphora-dominated habitats. Arrive at Salt Lick Lodge in time for lunch. The unique stilted lodge overlooks a busy waterhole frequented by elephants and other animals, with great viewing from an underground hide. Enjoy an afternoon game drive through the sanctuary, then return for dinner and overnight stay.
Enjoy a morning game drive as you exit Taita Hills and journey to Tsavo East National Park. Check in to your camp or lodge and have lunch. In the afternoon, explore the vast, semi-arid landscape known for its iron-rich red soil. Tsavo East is home to the iconic red elephants, lions, leopards, and cheetahs. Spend the evening chasing the magical African sunset before heading back for dinner and overnight.
This day offers flexibility for morning and evening game drives, allowing you to tailor your experience. Tsavo East is Kenya’s largest conservation area, housing rare species like the hirola antelope, along with zebras, dik-diks, and other antelopes. Visit the Galana River and the dramatic Lugard Falls, followed by a stop at Mudanda Rock—a massive inselberg that acts as a natural dam and wildlife haven during the dry season. Return to Ashnil Aruba Lodge for dinner and overnight stay.
After breakfast, head to the Emali Train Station for your journey to Mombasa. Upon arrival, a transfer will take you to Southern Palm Beach Resort in Diani. Check in and relax for your beach holiday. Enjoy the warm hospitality and ocean breeze for the next three nights.
Spend your day exploring Diani Beach. For the adventurous, snorkelling and diving trips to vibrant coral reefs are available (at an extra cost). Boat trips to nearby islands offer excellent views of marine life and pristine waters—perfect for water lovers.
Another day to relax or explore. Enjoy beach activities like swimming, kite surfing, or horseback riding along the shore. You can also opt for excursions to Shimba Hills for a wildlife safari or visit the Kisite-Mpunguti Marine National Park. Other activities include dolphin watching, sunset cruises, spa treatments, or exploring Mombasa’s historic Old Town (at extra cost).
After breakfast, check out of the hotel. Depending on your travel plans, you’ll be transferred to the airport or your next destination. This marks the end of a thrilling safari and a relaxing beach holiday in Kenya.

My son and I have experienced an absolutely fantastic and unforgettable safari trip thanks to James and Wild Portrait Safaris. Thanks to his experience and deep understanding and respect for wildlife (Read More)and its surroundings, he gave us so much more than we could ever have dreamed of. Extremely sympathetic and responsive. We have felt so well taken care of and safe. A comprehensive concept that was very convenient where he booked everything and was by our side the whole time. We have not missed anything.

I spent five days photographing in Amboseli NP and five days in the Masai Mara NR with James Muchina and Wild Portraits Safaris in January 2025. He also coordinated and organized a four day gorilla tr (Read More)ekking adventure in Rwanda for me. I started planning this trip about six months in advance and was so impressed with his prompt replies to my many questions and clear communication. Once I arrived it quickly became obvious that James is very experienced, prepared, thoughtful, energetic, enthusiastic and always on time (early actually). He has outstanding knowledge and years of experience with wildlife behaviour, ecology and conservation biology and I enjoyed our regular conversations about these topics. He has an outstanding ability to read animal behaviour, know what they will do next, and position you to photographically make the most of the available light, the subject, the landscape and composition. He’s always watching these variables and repositioning when necessary to keep you in the best possible position. James and Wild Portraits Safaris organized the perfect trip for me and I always felt safe and comfortable. He is such a nice, professional, thoughtful person that he quickly became more of a friend than a guide. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend his services and I can’t imagine travelling his part of the world with anyone else.

Our safari experience October 2024 was amazing. The time w/ James was beyond all my expectations. He is so knowledgeable about the animals and I learned so much. It was way beyond just viewing - but 1 (Read More)00% educational. About how the animals interact, care for each other, mate, stay in families or not etc. James has so much soul and is so passionate about his work and sharing his knowledge with those in his jeep. I can’t recommend James enough - I feel so lucky that we landed with him as our safari guide! You will be so happy if you book your Safari with James at Wild Portrait Safaris!

This is a FIVE STAR review for James at WILD PORTRAITS SAFARIS. We booked a 12 day safari with James to Kenya from the UK (via email & whats app) James arranged our transport in a very comfortable p (Read More)rivate Toyota Land cruiser, all our park fees, full board in 4 & 5 star loges within all the parks and collection from and return to Nairobi prior to and after our safari. We visited and stayed in the parks in the following accommodation: Tsavo East - Aruba Lodge Tsavo West - Kilaguni Lodge Amboleli - Serena Lodge Lake Naivasha - Sopa Lodge Lake Nakuru - Sopa Lodge Masai Mara - Loyk Camp All were discretely nestled in the parks surroundings and beautifully lit at night. All were fully sustainable with solar & natural water resources. All rooms were ensuite, providing everything you could need from tea and coffee making facilities to hair dryers. All had wonderfully comfortable beds and ceiling fans. The food was buffet style, varied and plentiful with an egg and pancake stations at breakfast. ALL the staff were extremely polite and friendly. Drinks were very reasonably priced with a beer and wine together costing $5 From the outset and throughout our 12 days on safari James has exceeded all our expectations and gone that extra mile on numerous occasions. James is an outstanding professional, a knowledgeable conservationist, a lover of the Kenyan wild life and now a life long friend. Where ever you are in the world book with James. You will not be disappointed. I am also happy for James to supply my contact details to anyone to contact me should any one reading this need information or reassurance. I also attach a few of the many picture we captured during our life changing experience

I recently completed my second safari adventure to Kenya. James Muchina at Wild Portraits Safari’s was the guide for both trips. It’s hard to imagine a better experience. The enthusiasm and knowle (Read More)dge that James brings to the safari is amazing. His passion for the work and desire to share that with others makes him truly special. More than just a safari driver, James is a natural teacher. His understanding of the complete interdependence of the environment, climate and all the creatures you’ll encounter on your safari are educational and incredible. He brings to life the web of life! One special thing of note: safari environments can get very crowded. The number of vehicles surrounding a lion, elephant, etc can be quite distracting. Because of James experience, we enjoyed numerous opportunities where we were the only ones present to enjoy incredible wildlife viewings. Those are the memories I will remember most. If you’re looking to build a custom safari; one that is tailored to your interests, contact James.

A memorable and thrilling experience in Kenya I had the opportunity to take an 8-day trip to Kenya with Wild Portraits Safaris, and I must say it was one of the best decisions of my life. The trip was (Read More) well-organized, comfortable, and full of amazing wildlife encounters. I visited three different national parks: Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, and Masai Mara, and each one had its own unique charm and beauty. Amboseli National Park The first stop of the trip was Amboseli National Park, where I witnessed the majestic sight of Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa. The park is home to hundreds of elephants, as well as zebras, giraffes, wildebeests, and many other animals. I was lucky enough to see a large herd of elephants crossing the road right in front of our vehicle, and it was a breathtaking moment. The park also has a variety of birds, such as flamingos, pelicans, and storks, that add color and life to the landscape. Lake Nakuru National Park The second stop of the trip was Lake Nakuru National Park, which is famous for its pink flamingos that cover the lake's shore. The park also has a rich diversity of wildlife, including rhinos, lions, leopards, buffaloes, and hyenas. I was thrilled to see a rare sighting of a black rhino and white rhinos, which is one of the most endangered animals in the world. Masai Mara National Reserve The last stop of the trip was Masai Mara National Reserve, which is the ultimate destination for any wildlife lover. The reserve is part of the Serengeti ecosystem, and hosts the annual migration of millions of wildebeests, zebras, and gazelles, who cross the Mara River in search of greener pastures. The reserve is also the best place to see the Big Five: lions, leopards, elephants, rhinos, and buffaloes. I was fortunate enough to see all of them, and even witnessed a dramatic chase between lions and buffalos. The reserve also has a rich cultural heritage, as it is the home of the Masai people, who are known for their traditional lifestyle and colorful attire. The best guides and service None of this would have been possible without the excellent service and guidance of Wild Portraits Safaris. James, organized everything meticulously, from the accommodation, transportation, meals, and activities. He was always attentive, friendly, and professional, and made sure that I had everything I needed. Surat, another guide, was knowledgeable, experienced, and passionate about wildlife. Both of them knew where to find the best sightings, and how to position the vehicle for the best photography. They also shared interesting facts and stories about the animals and the places we visited. I highly recommend Wild Portraits Safaris to anyone who wants to have an unforgettable and thrilling experience in Kenya. They are the best in the business, and they will make your dreams come true.

We just came back from our second safari trip with James of Wild Portraits Safari. We had the greatest possible experience during our 9 day-trip from Amboseli (Kenya), to Tarangine, Ngorongoro, Sereng (Read More)eti (Tanzania) and then to the Mara in Kenya. The full trip was well organized and included so many highlights: beautiful sights, the landscapes, the wildlife, James' ability to find the quiet spots with magnificent viewing, great accommodations, breakfast in the Mara, horseback riding amongst buffalo, hyena and giraffes, and of course James' great company, his care for his guests and his drive to make the full experience perfect. We are already planning our next visit and will certainly travel with James again. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a fantastic vacation.
