Today, most game parks have some kind of lodge facility, be it luxury modern hotel or a permanent tented camp. Participants enjoy a round of game drives, relaxation at lodge swimming pools, sumptuous buffets, and more game drives. Such a safari is not everyone's dream of Africa adventure, but it is terrific vacation. Lodges come in many shapes and sizes. Their general quality is very high in terms of comfort, cleanliness, and service. Each facility has its own ambiance. The newer safari lodges are modern hotels designed for harmony with natural setting. Spacious verandahs in bars and dining rooms look out over game-viewing areas. Attractive grounds mix native vegetation with brilliantly flowering tropical plants. Rooms are comfortably cool, pleasantly furnished, and faultlessly clean. For a break from game viewing, guests can relax at the lodge swimming pool. Food is excellent- the buffet tables fairly groan under the weight of platters of delectable fruits, cold-cut meats, hot dishes, and sweets. Many lodges are famous for their beauty as well as comfort. They are often situated in fantastic locations, overlooking stunning landscapes well visited by game. Some other are well placed, usually at strategic water points, that game can be seen at any time. For those tired of beating the bush, an afternoon spent relaxing at the lodge can be just as productive as a game drive. Overwhelmingly, the most popular type of African adventure is the lodge safari.
We depart Nairobi in the morning and drive south through Masai country to the plains below Mt. Kilimanjaro where Amboseli is situated. After a stopover lunch at the lodge we proceed into the scenic Amboseli National Park for a game drive returning to the lodge in the evening for a sun downer. The waters from melted snow drain down Mt. Kilimanjaro under lava flows and surface in Amboseli, creating a green belt of swampland amidst dusty plains. Here buffaloes, lions, gazelles, cheetahs, wildebeest, hyenas, jackals, warthogs, Masai Giraffes, zebra, baboon, hippos and waterbuck can be seen against the backdrop of the magnificent snow-capped mountain.
After a leisurely breakfast, we explore the park through morning and afternoon game drives. We have sufficient time for relaxation at the lodge, complete with the majestic Mt. Kilimanjaro in the background. At 329 sq km Amboseli is a small park and lacks the profusion of animal species found in the Mara, but the landscape provides limited cover so we have better chances of seeing some of the larger predators.
We leave Amboseli, viewing game as we drive via Nairobi to the Aberdares to enjoy the experience of staying in a Tree Hotel or lodge overlooking floodlit waterholes where wildlife and birds regularly visit. Dinner and a well deserved sleep thereafter. Over 40 species of wildlife inhabit the Aberdare mountain ranges, hiding in the heavily forested slopes and in the upper moor lands. The Aberdares is noted as a rhino sanctuary but keep an eye out for the elusive rare bongo, which is best, spotted in the upper bamboo zone and hypericum scrub.
After breakfast we proceed further north across the Equator to the edge of the Northern Frontier. Arrival will be in time for lunch and an afternoon game drive returning in time for a sun downer and dinner at the lodge.
The whole day will be spent relaxing and leisurely exploring the Samburu National Reserve through morning and afternoon game drives. You may opt to do some of the activities offered at the lodges for a small extra cost.
We enjoy a final early morning game drive in the Samburu reserve then depart for the Mt. Kenya region. Arrival at the lodge in time for you to enjoy the facilities of the lodge, explore the Mount Kenya National Park or take an optional tour to the nearby Sweetwaters Reserve which is home to Chimpanzees.
Morning drive via the Nyahururu Falls down to the shallow soda Lake Bogoria and later to the beautiful lake Baringo where you may enjoy the pleasure of an evening bird walk. Dinner and overnight at the lodge.
We enjoy a morning boat ride in search of hippo, crocodile, and fish eagle. After a sumptuous lunch, we then proceed to Lake Nakuru and the Nakuru National Park for an afternoon game drive.
After an early breakfast, we depart for Masai Mara National Reserve via the Great Rift Valley arriving in time for lunch at the lodge. We then proceed on an afternoon game drive returning to the lodge for a delicious sundowner, and dinner at the lodge or luxury tented camp.
The next two days shall be spent viewing game, in the early morning hours and in the evenings as this is when we have the best chances of seeing wildlife. The ultimate action here is without doubt the annual wildebeest exodus in July and August when millions of these grass eaters move north from the Serengeti in search of lusher grass before turning south again in October.
After a final early morning game drive we depart for Nairobi arriving in the afternoon hours.
