Why Safari in Amboseli or Tsavo?

To the south east of Nairobi are two of the country’s most unique wildlife sanctuaries – the National Parks of Amboseli and Tsavo. Easily reached by road or train from Nairobi (or a short flight), these parks offer landscapes and views that simply aren’t found elsewhere in Kenya. The beaches and resorts of the Kenyan coast are also a short drive away, perfect for a safari and beach combination.

Amboseli National Park is known for its large herds of elephants and its stunning views of Africa’s highest mountain, Kilimanjaro, standing just across the border in neighbouring Tanzania. An awe-inspiring and unforgettable sight.

Tsavo National Park, divided into East and West, is Kenya’s largest park, with mountains, springs, volcanic landscapes and distinctive red earth.

" We had a fantastic time and were incredibly happy with our Kenyan safari and beach stay. It was extremely well planned and well worth the money. Thank you so much for all your help. 😊"

"A fabulous family holiday!!! We really felt we were in the middle of the Great Migration, right on the Wildebeest trail. It was extraordinary just to see the numbers of them. The balloon ride was stunning. Our Internal flight back was delayed a bit due to thousands of Wildebeest and Zebra crossing the runway for at least half an hour. We couldn’t have wished for a better send off!!"

"The Sheldrick Orphanage was a great way to spend time in Nairobi - it was lovely to see the young elephants. We obviously adopted one! The tents and food on safari were great! Lots of space and all the amenities we needed. The food throughout was excellent, there were lots of Vegetarian and Vegan options. The whole trip was amazing and we've certainly got some wonderful memories and millions of photos! Everyone we met was so lovely and nothing was too much trouble. "

"We were staggered by the professionalism throughout, the care & attention to ensure that we made the best use of our time was heart warming. We did a sundowner helicopter flight resulting in a G+T on a small ridge at 6500 feet watching the sunset… The food at both camps was good enough to serve in any high end restaurant around the world. A Birthday cake arrived on our last night, carried in by all the Masai staff, some dressed in their robes & singing. The trip was a huge success on so many levels. We wouldn’t have changed a thing. Thank you for all the fantastic organising. "

Flying

The option to fly around Kenya always provides a more convenient way to travel and see Kenya from a different perspective whilst flying over the beautiful landscape. Several companies operate daily light aircraft transfers to the area, which connect well with flights to Kenya’s other reserves. Speak to the team at African Pride for details of the services available.

Madaraka Express

Rail

The Madaraka Express, or ‘Iron Snake’ as it is affectionately known, is the train that travels between Nairobi and Mombasa and having relatively recently been upgraded, it is proving an increasingly popular way to travel between the capital and the coast. There is the option to leave the train at the Amboseli or Tsavo parks, a unique way to combine a safari and beach style holiday.

When to travel to Kenya for a safari

The dry season months of January to March and July to October are generally the best times to visit Kenya for a safari. The days are cooler but still warm and it is generally dry. The Great Migration typically arrives in the Masai Mara between July and September.
