Tour step
You'll be collected from the airport. Accommodation before the tour starts can be arranged for an extra cost.
Day 1
You'll depart for the Amboseli National Park via the Nairobi-Mombasa Road. The morning drive is via a typical African savannah country dotted with local homesteads and colorful Maasai herdsmen grazing their cattle. You'll arrive in time for lunch and later venture into the park for the scheduled afternoon game-viewing drive. You will spot the many herds of elephants up close in the park —it's no wonder that the park is the best place in Africa to spot such herds. The park is also home to many other species, such as the Cape buffalo, impala, lion, cheetah, spotted hyena, Maasai giraffe, zebra, and blue wildebeest, among other animals. The birdlife is also abundant, with both large and small species. Weather permitting, Amboseli National Park offers a vista of the scenic snow-capped Mt. Kilimanjaro, which makes it a perfect site for photography. It is the tallest mountain in Africa and the highest free-standing mountain in the world. Your dinner and overnight stay will be at the lodge.

Day 2
You'll have another day to enjoy a full-day game-viewing extravaganza in Amboseli. With its reputation for active elephant sightings, it’s easy to spot them roaming the plains in the morning and evening. During much of the day, you can observe them splashing and foraging in the Ol Okenya Swamp. You will also stop at Observation Hill to view the sprawling, breathtaking view of Amboseli. You may opt to have the full-day game drive; otherwise, you can also choose to do the game drives in separate sessions so that you may have a chance to enjoy the lodge facilities. The driver-guide will be readily available to discuss your daily activities as per your preferences, including an optional visit to a Maasai village (at an extra cost). Every safari is different according to your wishes, likes, and expectations. Just let us know how you would like to customize your special journey. Your dinner and overnight stay will be at the lodge. Luxury tented camp bordering ALOCA Conservancy (Amboseli NP) without fences All meals included Drinking water (Other drinks not included)
Day 3
You'll have an early breakfast and then check out and proceed to Tsavo West National Park. The park is commonly known as the “Land of Lava, Springs, Man-Eaters & Magical Sunsets”. From the sight of 50 million gallons of crystal-clear water gushing out from the underparched lava rock that is the Mzima Springs to the Shetani lava flows, Tsavo West is a beautiful, rugged wilderness. The savannah ecosystem comprises open grasslands, scrublands, acacia woodlands, belts of riverine vegetation, and rocky ridges, including the Poacher's Lookout, where visitors can see the teeming herds in the plains below. Tsavo West offers some of the best game viewing in the world. The attractions include elephants, hippos, lions, cheetahs, leopards, buffaloes, and diverse plant and bird species, including the threatened corncrake and near-threatened Basra reed warbler. You'll arrive in time for lunch, followed by an afternoon game drive. Later, you'll return to the lodge for dinner and an overnight stay.

Day 4
After breakfast, you will depart with an en-route wildlife-viewing drive for Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary. The sanctuary hosts over 50 large mammals that include elephants, zebras, buffalo, giraffes, lions, leopards, cheetahs, varied antelopes, and an array of over 390 bird species. Your stay will be at Salt Lick Safari Lodge, a favorite amongst many travelers. The lodge overlooks a waterhole and is linked by suspended walkways. At night, the waterholes are floodlit, ensuring that you enjoy an uninterrupted view of the numerous animals quenching their thirst. The elevated restaurant and the bar, a level higher, also offer views of the sanctuary and are the ideal vantage points to view the wildlife. The neighboring Taita Hills Safari Resort & Spa has a museum that displays some of the World War 1 memorabilia as part of the rich history of Taita Taveta County. You'll arrive in time for lunch, followed by an afternoon game drive, returning to the lodge for dinner and overnight stay.

Your beach holiday can be arranged separately, so do let us know accordingly while booking this safari, and we will be glad to guide you. We can also drop you off in Nairobi if requested.

5.0/5Safari with Jacmiya Safaris was the adventure of a lifetime and the fulfillment of our dreams. Kenya has something truly extraordinary about it and will remain in our hearts forever—we will definitely return one day with more friends. We are very grateful for the meticulous planning of our trip, which was exciting, colorful, and full of unforgettable experiences. Jackie, our contact person was truly amazing. She was able to respond to all our questions, changing itineraries time by time until we were fully satisfied with what we wanted. She could even send us messages during the safari just to ensure we were safe. We really felt at home with them ,a very hospitable team indeed. Special thanks go to our guide, as the success of this journey was largely thanks to him. Julius showed us far more than we expected—we saw the Big Five and many other animals, always had the best views, were close to the wildlife, and were able to take beautiful photos. Julius is a wonderful person who truly cared about making our trip unforgettable. Thank you Jacmiya Safaris, we will visit again and definitely book with them

We visited Kenya for the December holiday with my wife. We were met by our guide John at Tamarind Hotel in Nairobi where our excellent safari had just began. Having such a knowledgeable and friendly guide just added to our experience. We travelled to the Masai Mara arriving at the Sarova Mara camp which was very relaxing and comfortable with great staff. We had 2 days Safari there seeing some beautiful animals lions,Cheetah, Elephant, Hippos,Warthogs, Hyenas and lots more. We then travelled to Lake Nakuru staying at the Sarova Lion Hill Lodge and on our game drives managed to see Rhinos, Lions, Baboons and lots of bird life. We would highly recommend this package and taking the option of a private Land Cruiser. Booking a group safari might sometimes turn out not fun since there's no flexibility at all. John was very attentive and he played a big role to the success of our trip. My wife and I really enjoyed we will definitely come back again. Thank you JACMIYA SAFARIS for making our safari a success!

In January we set out on our second trip to Kenya and once again we were blown away by how well everything was organised. This time we booked online through Jacmiya and Joseph who set everything up did a fantastic job putting the whole trip together for us. He really listened to what we wanted, adjusted the itinerary until it was exactly what we were looking for and made the whole process feel easy and stress‑free. We were lucky enough to have John as our guide, and he was just as good, His knowledge of Kenya, the wildlife, and all the parks was brilliant. He’s one of those guides who can somehow spot animals from unbelievable distances pointing out things we never would’ve noticed ourselves. He looked after us from start to finish and made everyday fun, relaxed, and memorable. Jacmiya did a fantastic job with the overall organisation and every swap of location was as seamless as our first trip, they make it look so effortless. That same level of care absolutely came through on this second visit as well. Just like before, we always felt at ease and well taken care of from both Jacmiya and their team to all the people we met along the way at lodges and hotels that were chosen for us to which we must say were amazing. After two incredible trips, we can confidently say that Joseph, John, and the whole Jacmiya team are exceptional. Whether it’s your first safari or your fifth, you’ll be in great hands.

My 6 days safari with Jacmiya Safaris just left me with endless memories. I was a solo traveller and they truly took good care of me. Joseph, the guy who was in contact with me during the planning stage was really quick with his responses. I could message him with several changes and still get them done promptly. Much appreciation to John, my tour guide who did all he can to make the safari a success. John knew nearly everyone in the park, and that made me feel like he really knew his work well and very famous. He could make calls to his colleagues asking for best spots and within no minute, we were there. I was lucky to see all the BIG FIVE and the most interesting part was seeing the killing- very rare sightings as I was informed. Thank you Jacmiya Safaris, I will surely recommend them to my friends.
