Kenya Discovery Safari

Combining two of Kenya’s best game-viewing areas – TsavoTsavo and  Amboseli – this great value 5 day road safari is by 4×4 vehicle and stays at the esteemed Serena safari lodges which are ideally located for those going in search of Africa’s Big Five.

There is an optional add-on to extend your tour with a fly-in safari to the Masai Mara.

The journey first visits the vast Tsavo region. Together Tsavo West National Park and Tsavo East National Park make up one of the largest animal sanctuaries in the world. The terrain encompasses huge plains and an interesting geological landscape such as cones, outcrops and lava flows resulting from historic volcanic activity. The area has a wide variety of wildlife including lion, cheetah, leopard, buffalo, hippo, elephant, oryx, eland, zebra, giraffe, spotted hyena, kongoni, waterbuck, impala, duiker and klipspringer.

After two nights in Tsavo the tour continues to Amboseli National Park, home to large herds of elephants whose population is one of the few in Africa that has been spared from poachers. Predators in the park include hyenas, jackals; lions, leopards and cheetahs. Birdlife in abundance flourishes particularly in the marshes and swamps. Over 420 species have been counted within the park as a whole including 6 species of vulture, 12 species of heron and 10 varieties of eagle.
