“This was the perfect short safari from Nairobi. The flight saved us many hours on the road, and we were seeing elephants within minutes of arriving in Amboseli. The views of Mount Kilimanjaro were incredible, especially during the early morning game drive. Serena Lodge was excellent, and everything was very well organized by Cruzeiro Safaris.”
