Arrive at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, where you’ll be warmly received and transferred to the renowned Safari Park Hotel. Nestled on 64 acres of lush gardens and inspired by African architecture, this luxury hotel has evolved from a colonial-era retreat to a vibrant city resort—just 15 minutes from downtown Nairobi.

Relax after your flight, then meet your safari tour leader for a full briefing of the upcoming adventure and photography tips. Dinner is on your own tonight, allowing you to explore dining options at the hotel or nearby. Overnight at Safari Park Hotel on Bed & Breakfast basis.

Amboseli National Park

Accommodation: Ol Tukai Lodge, Amboseli
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

Start your day early with coffee and tea at Cafe Kigwa, then drive through Emali Town towards Amboseli National Park (approx. 4 hrs). Upon arrival, check in to the stunning Ol Tukai Lodge, nestled in the heart of the park with unparalleled views of Mount Kilimanjaro.

For the next three days, enjoy early morning and afternoon photo sessions amid Amboseli’s dramatic landscapes—where open plains, salt pans, and marshes attract large elephant herds, zebras, wildebeest, lions, and abundant birdlife. Observation opportunities from the lodge are exceptional, and the lighting is ideal for photographers—especially in the morning before the clouds veil the mountain.

Spend your afternoons at leisure or reviewing your shots before returning to the bush. All meals are served at the lodge’s scenic restaurant.

Day 05 - 07 :

Samburu Game Reserve

Accommodation: Ashnil Samburu Camp
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

After breakfast, take a scheduled flight from Amboseli to Nairobi, then connect to your onward flight to Samburu Game Reserve. On arrival, begin your first game drive in this unique arid ecosystem, home to species not found elsewhere in southern Kenya.

Check in at Ashnil Samburu Camp, set along the Ewaso Ng'iro River, offering luxury tented accommodation with excellent views. Over the next three days, explore Samburu’s distinctive wildlife—including Grevy’s zebra, reticulated giraffe, gerenuk, and possibly even leopards and wild dogs. The dramatic backdrop of Mt. Ololokwe adds a cinematic quality to every photo.

Morning and afternoon drives provide plenty of photographic opportunities, and expert driver-guides will help you track elusive subjects hidden in the bush.

Day 08 - 11 :

Masai Mara National Reserve

Accommodation: 2 Nights at Keekorok Lodge (Eastern Corridor) & 2 Nights at Mara Serena Lodge (Western Corridor)

After breakfast, transfer to the airstrip for your flight to the Masai Mara. From the air, take in sweeping views of the endless savannahs that define one of the greatest wildlife theaters on Earth.

Spend four thrilling days photographing Africa’s most iconic species—lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant, rhino, cheetah, jackal, wildebeest, and more. Whether you're witnessing the Great Migration (June–October) or predator action year-round, the Mara never disappoints.

You’ll split your stay between Keekorok Lodge and Mara Serena Safari Lodge, maximizing your coverage across the reserve’s Eastern and Western Corridors. Optional activities include a Masai village visit (from $25) or a sunrise hot air balloon ride (optional, additional cost).

With early game drives, midday rest, and evening outings, you’ll capture the essence of East Africa’s wild heart through your lens.

Optional day room available (at extra cost) for freshening up before your international departure. Your AfriChoice representative will assist with check-in and ensure your onward arrangements go smoothly.
