Staying at the incomparable Angama Mara and Angama Amboseli luxury lodges, this safari is the ultimate ‘Out of Africa’ experience for couples and honeymooners. Encounter two of Kenya’s most exquisite wildlife areas, the Maasai Mara and the Amboseli, and sleep in romantic under-canvas suites with sweeping views. Discover the Mara’s abundant wildlife on game drives, walks and hot air balloons and photograph Africa’s last Super Tuskers against the backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro.
You will fly between the two parks in a light aircraft offering a birds’ eye view of the spectacular landscapes and wildlife below. Angama Mara Lodge appears to be suspended in mid-air overlooking one of the Mara’s most remarkable views. As host to the seasonal Great Migration and with exceptional, year-round game-viewing, no safari to East Africa is complete without a visit to the Maasai Mara. Aside from the safari experiences you can discover the rich Maasai culture as well as dine in a host of memorable locations including on the crest of the 'Out of Africa' hill featured on the movie’s poster. Angama Amboseli Lodge is set within a Maasai community-owned conservancy. During your stay you will have exclusive traversing rights and unrestricted game viewing. The lodge’s contemporary suites are all orientated so that Mount Kilimanjaro can be seen from nearly every corner – from the bed to the shower. A stay here also guarantees up-close and emotional encounters with one of the true icons of wild Africa, the elephants.
