About this experience
Chooses to pass by Tsavo East on your return.
Combining both Amboseli and Tsavo West not only serves you a platter of amazing wildlife spotting, but also epic sceneries. With this safari, we will take you through Amboseli’s lands of plenty and the unforgiving Tsavo, where life revolves around making it to a water hole.
What makes Amboseli special to us is that it is a game viewing paradise. . . Guaranteed elephant sightings come alongside other incredible wildlife sightings. Its compact size allows you to see virtually every aspect in about 3 days. In addition, Amboseli offers the best views of the world's tallest free-standing mountain and Africa's highest peak, Mount Kilimanjaro!
From the foot of the Chyulu Hills all the way down to the Tanzanian border, Tsavo West is a wild and broken land of volcanic hills, black lava flows and dense acacia woodland that offer the best views of untouched wild and covers 4% of Kenya's, about the same size as Jamaica, Michigan, Wales or Israel.
