A large part of park consists of the alluvial dried-up bed of the seasonal Lake Amboseli, which is the rainy season can transform into a shallow flood whilst the dry season brings strange mirages above the lakes dry shimmering surface. Towards the centre of the park are a series of swamps, fed by underground rivers running off the mountain. It is here, closer to water, that the concentration of wildlife intensifies, from the herds of elephant to the abundant birdlife. Morning and afternoon game viewing. Overnight at Amboseli Serena Lodge on a full board basis.
Morning drive back to Nairobi arriving around noon.
Transfer to the Mayfair Hotel for one nights accommodation on a bed and breakfast basis.
