2 Days Amboseli Tour 2026/2027/2028 – Amboseli Safari from Nairobi
Is 2 days enough for Amboseli National Park?
Yes. A well-planned 2 days Amboseli tour gives you multiple game drives, excellent chances to see large elephant herds, predator activity, and clear views of Mount Kilimanjaro—making it one of the best short safaris from Nairobi.
This 2 Days Amboseli tour is ideal for travelers seeking a short yet immersive safari in one of Kenya’s most iconic wildlife destinations. Designed for 2026/2027/2028, this Amboseli safari from Nairobi takes you to Amboseli National Park, world-renowned for its massive elephant herds and postcard views of Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest peak.
Unlike a one-day rush, this 2 days Amboseli safari allows enough time for unhurried game drives, golden-hour photography, and deeper exploration of Amboseli’s swamps, plains, and acacia woodland. You’ll track free-roaming elephants, buffalo, giraffes, zebras, lions, cheetahs, and hundreds of bird species—often with Kilimanjaro rising dramatically in the background.
This Amboseli 2 days 1 night safari is perfect for couples, families, photographers, business travelers, and first-time safari guests who want a genuine wildlife experience without committing to a long itinerary.

Day 1: Nairobi – Amboseli National Park – Afternoon Game Drive
Your 2 days Amboseli safari from Nairobi begins with early-morning pickup and a scenic drive south through Maasai countryside. Arrive at Amboseli National Park late morning, enter the park, and enjoy your first game drive en route to your lodge or tented camp. After lunch and check-in, head out for an afternoon game drive exploring the park’s open plains and swamp system fed by underground rivers from Mount Kilimanjaro. Expect close encounters with elephant families, buffalo, giraffes, zebras, and numerous bird species. Return to your lodge at sunset for dinner and overnight.
Day 2: Sunrise Game Drive – Amboseli – Return to Nairobi
Wake early for a sunrise game drive, the best time to witness wildlife activity and capture Kilimanjaro’s peak when skies are clearest. Track predators, elephants leaving forest cover, and hippos in the swamps. After breakfast, enjoy a final short game drive as you exit the park. Begin your return journey to Nairobi, arriving in the late afternoon. Airport or hotel drop-off can be arranged.
