Know Before You Go

Amboseli and Nakuru are year-round destinations, but the dry season (June–October and January–February) offers the best game viewing.

Amboseli is hot and dry, while Nakuru in the Rift Valley is cooler, especially in the mornings and evenings, so layered clothing is recommended.

Game drives increase the chances of seeing the Big Five, but wildlife sightings are not guaranteed as animals roam freely in the wild.

Carry insect repellent to protect against mosquitoes, and consult your doctor about malaria prophylaxis before travel.

Safari vehicles are equipped with pop-up roofs for better photography and viewing, and roads can be bumpy, so pack comfortably.

When visiting a Maasai village, respect local customs and always ask before taking photos of people.

Wi-Fi and mobile network coverage are limited in the parks, so embrace the wilderness experience.

Soft bags are preferred over hard suitcases for easier packing in safari vehicles.

Follow park rules by not feeding animals, keeping a safe distance, and respecting the natural environment.

What To Bring

Light, comfortable clothes for daytime and a warm sweater or jacket for cool mornings and evenings; neutral colors such as khaki, beige, or green recommended for game drives

Comfortable walking shoes or sneakers, plus sandals for lodge wear

Hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, and lip balm for sun protection

Binoculars and camera with extra batteries and memory cards

Insect repellent, personal toiletries, and any prescription medications

Valid passport, visa if required, travel insurance, and copies of important documents

Small denominations of cash or cards for tips and personal purchases
