Proposed Itinerary
Day One: Preparation for Safari: Volunteers prepare for the safari – picked up from their respective host families/hostels.
Day Two & Three: Amboseli National Park: For the duration of these two days, participants will reside in accommodations arranged and approved by Youth Hostels Tours and Volunteers, where breakfast, lunch & dinner will be available. The day’s safari will begin with a drive to Amboseli National Park near Kilimanjaro – jutting skyward and dominating the horizon with its glorious peak reaching approximately 19,340 feet. The afternoon unfolds – treating participants to numerous wildlife-viewing opportunities, including: the area’s massive elephant population as well as giraffe lions and cheetahs. The wildlife experience continues the next morning as participants are treated to even more of Amboseli National Park’s wonderment – zebra and wildebeest run amok as the safari continues into the afternoon and early evening.
Day Four: Lake Nakuru: After breakfast, participants will travel to Thompson Falls, followed by a descent to the floor of the daunting Rift Valley and onto Lake Nakuru National Park. The remainder of the day will consist of exploring the wonderful diversity of birds as well as opportunities to observe Lake Nakuru’s famed population of rhinoceros, leopards and flamingo. Breakfast, lunch and dinner provided.
Day Five & Six: Maasai Mara Game Reserve: For the duration of these two days, participants will reside in accommodations arranged and approved by Youth Hostels Tours and Volunteers where breakfast, lunch & dinner will be available. This particular stretch of the tour – guaranteed to supply lasting memories – explores the enchanting, awe-inspiring land of the world-renowned Maasai – a cattle-herding culture still defiantly untouched by the trappings of the western world. This stretch of the journey will commence in a grand finale at the Maasai Mara – an amazing park brimming with Kenya's most concentrated, most diverse examples of wildlife. Within the realm of the Maasai Mara Game Reserve, multiple safaris provide opportunities to observe Africa’s largest pride of lions as well as herds-upon-herds of zebra and antelope, buffalo, wildebeest, giraffe, cheetah and hyena.
