Dinner will be on own arrangement. Overnight at Eka Hotel (BB) Day 02: Nairobi -Amboseli Breakfast at the hotel then depart for Amboseli National Park. The road climbs through scrub thorn and acacia - look for the unusual - looking long-necked gerenuk antelope here - to the grassy ridge at the top. Before you pass through the shimmering plains that stretch away to Amboseli National Park, at the foot of majestic Mount Kilimanjaro, home to a wealth of wildlife but particularly known for its elephants, by lunchtime you'll reach your lodge. Lunch at the lodge with afternoon game drive in the park

3 A game drive through Amboseli take you across this vast lakebed - often dry, but still very swampy in areas.

But there's a lot of other game here too - cheetah, buffalo, giraffe, many types of gazelle and other plains game - and it's all set against the amazing backdrop of majestic Mount Kilimanjaro showing all its glory. Meals and overnight at Oltukai Lodge or Similar (LDBB) Day 03: Amboseli National Park Breakfast at the lodge then enjoy morning and afternoon game drives. The National Park hosts five main wildlife habitats (open plains, acacia woodland, rocky thorn bush country, swamps and marshland) and covers part of a Pleistocene Lake Basin, now dry. Within this basin is a temporary lake; Lake Amboseli, that floods during years of heavy rainfall. Amboseli is unique for its big game and its great scenic beauty - and the landscape is dominated by the towering Mount Kilimanjaro. On a lucky day subject to the weather and cloud condition, you may be able to view the snow of the Mt. Kilimanjaro; Africa s highest mountain. Meals and overnight at Oltukai Lodge or Similar (LDBB) Day 04: Amboseli Lake Naivasha Depart after breakfast to Lake Naivasha. On your way you will visit the Hells gate National Park.

You may see lioness or cheetah at a kill or a lion enjoying a kill with a family of cubs waiting to feed. Hyenas and vultures will also be waiting their turn near the carcass. Antelope grazing peacefully, safe in the knowledge that at least for now the predator is well fed, all the animals are having breakfast. Crocodiles are lying in wait for the animals that will come to the river to drink. Hippos usually leave the water to graze in the late evening or night; the heat of the sun is harmful to their skin so they spend the day swimming or submerged in the shallow water. After breakfast the visitor may like to relax in the cool water of the swimming pool supplied with cool drinks by the attentive staff.

4 The afternoon game drive will take the visitor to the leopard s hideout. He may be asleep in the tree with the kill which he has dragged up with him or he may just be watching his visitors.
