Description
2 Days Safari visiting the Amboseli National Park. It is a 3-4 hours’ drive from Nairobi. Amboseli National Park is one of Kenya's most popular parks. It is crowned by the breathtaking scenery of Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's highest peak. The name "Amboseli" comes from a Maasai word meaning "salty dust”. The park is one of the best places in Africa to view large herds of elephants up close. The park has an endless supply of water which is filtered through thousands of meters of volcanic rock from Mount Kilimanjaro. Animal species seen include elephant, zebra, wildebeest, giraffe, impala and leopard. The birds seen here include pelican, bee eater, kingfisher, African fish eagle and pygmy falcon. Nature lovers can explore five different habitats here ranging from the dried-up bed of Lake Amboseli, wetlands with Sulphur springs, the savannah and woodlands. You can also visit the local Maasai community who live around the park and experience their authentic culture. You will be staying at Amboseli Sopa Serena Lodge Surrounded by the vast and beautiful landscape of Amboseli National Park, the accommodations at Amboseli Serena Safari Lodge provide a full immersion into life in the untamed bush. Each room is housed in a single-storey building opening directly onto the grounds, and each reflects a Maasai Manyatta theme with hand-painted wildlife murals, locally inspired furnishings and artefacts, and the brilliant primary colors symbolic of these fabled warriors. Guests enjoy a balance of sophistication, comfort and harmony with nature.
