You will be met by your driver who will give you a small brief. Later, you will depart for Amboseli National Park and arrive in time for a relaxed lunch.
   • You will head for your first game drive during the safari, which will occur in the afternoon between 4:00 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. During this game drive, you will get the final catch of animals while they are out of their hides to get their last meal of the day and sunbathing, especially the reptiles.
   • Kobs and other animals that graze will be assembled for their night's rest. Amboseli National Park is also famous for being the best place in the world to get close to free-ranging elephants. The park also has views of Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest free-standing mountain in the world.

   Amboseli National Park

   • You will have an early morning game drive between 6:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m. to catch up with the African sunrise.

You will return to your lodge for breakfast.

During the day, when the sun gets hot, most of the animals gather near the river banks to quench their thirst and cool themselves down, while others, like the big cats, are rarely spotted, but when the sun goes down, some animals will show up.
