A day at Amboseli - Where do I even begin?! I booked my tour a couple of weeks before traveling to Nairobi. (From San Francisco) Irene and Abed from the Safari tour picked me up early morning at my hotel and we headed towards Amboseli, which is about 5 hours drive from Nairobi. I got to enjoy a beautiful sunrise over the green hills outside of Nairobi. Occasionally, we had to stop due to traffic -zebras crossing the road!!!- Traffic I did not mind at all. Officials checked my passport at the Amboseli gate, which took less than 2 minutes. Once we got to the park, the magic started. So many birds, lions, elephants, baboons and more...this nature is so beautiful and I was lucky that Irene and Abed kindly shared the history of the place as well as details about each animals with me. Kilimanjaro was so clear which only added more magic to the spectacular view. We took a lot of pictures, stopped for lunch at a lodge inside the park, then continued exploring the national park. Not even in my wildest dreams I thought this day would be this perfect! I booked a private tour and got to spend the entire day with Irene and Abed and learn about Kenya, its history and more. I could not recommend booking with these two more! They are so kind and welcoming and educated. You’ll have an amazing time :) I can’t wait to go back to Kenya and explore other national parks with them.
