You’ll be met at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport by your Good Secrets travel consultant and introduced to your Kenyan driver-guide before leaving the city, then travel south through rolling countryside toward Amboseli. After a relaxed lunch at the lodge overlooking Mt. Kilimanjaro, we’ll take a gentle afternoon drive where elephants and plains meet the mountain backdrop, then return for dinner and an easy evening.

Your detailed itinerary
We begin early with a short morning drive when wildlife is most active and the light over Kilimanjaro is at its finest, then return to the lodge for a slow mid-morning breakfast and rest. In the afternoon you’ll enjoy another easy game drive that keeps the pace gentle and allows time for photography, reading, or simply watching the light change across the plains.
