DAY 3: AMBOSELI/TSAVO WEST: B, L, D.
Breakfast at the camp. Depart for Tsavo West National Park. Arrive, check-in and lunch at your lodge/camp. Afternoon game drives. From Kilaguni, great expanses of open plains stretch in all directions with Mount Kilimanjaro, the Chyulu hills, the Taita hills and Ngulia mountains on different horizons. The views from Roaring rocks and Poacher's lookout are truly spectacular. Elephant, buffalo, giraffe, lion, leopard, cheetah, rhino and most common species of plains game and smaller mammals are present so wildlife viewing is varied but requires some patience. A visit to Mzima Springs where crystal clear water bubbles up from underground may reveal hippo and crocodile, seen from an underwater viewing hide. Bird life is extraordinarily colourful and diverse with the Ngulia mountains hosting many migratory species at certain times of the year. Spend 1 night at the camp on full board.
