Day 3: Road to Tsavo East—Red Elephants & Watering Holes
Set off inland through open savannah toward Tsavo East. Soon, the earth reddens beneath the tusks of legendary “Red Elephants.” Watch wildlife gather at watering holes—buffalo, lions, crocodiles, zebra and antelope paint the scene. Your lodge awaits, where soft evening light meets the cool birdcalls of the wild.
Day 4: Amboseli’s Giants & Kilimanjaro’s Majesty
Drive into Amboseli, framed by the majestic silhouette of Mt. Kilimanjaro. Elephant herds roam peacefully across marshes, while flocks of flamingos shimmer in the distance. A full-day game drive immerses you in iconic views and elegant wildlife encounters. Sunset finds you sipping tea as Kili’s peaks glow in gold.
Day 5: Naivasha’s Serenity & Crescent Island Trails
Next stop is Lake Naivasha, a jewel of calm waters and bird-rich shores. Glide by boat past hippos and glittering water birds. Then walk among giraffe and zebra on Crescent Island, where hoofprints meet whispering grasses. It’s a day of gentle romance, where nature invites your footsteps.
Day 6: Wildlife Climax in Maasai Mara
Arrive in the legendary Maasai Mara, where the rhythm of wildlife pulses. Game drives lead you into lion prides, leopards in shade, rhinos grazing quietly, and buffalo herds moving in purpose. If timing is right, witness the Great Wildebeest Migration cross the Mara River. Let each moment inspire awe, each sigh of the breeze speak freedom.
Day 7: Return to Watamu—From Savanna to Sea
Your final morning greets you with one last drive through Mara’s golden grass. Then it’s time to return—by road or scenic charter—back to the coast. As ocean breezes welcome you home, reflect on a week that bridged the blue of coral reefs and the gold of the savanna.
