Excellent Amboseli tour!
We had a great 2 day Amboseli safari. Booking and communication with GracePatt was easy and prompt. Our driver guide Titus was prompt, knew a lot about the park and took excellent care of us. We stayed at Kibo Safari camp and really enjoyed the stay and hospitality. We saw a lot of animals in Amboseli and also lake Amboseli with beautiful flamingos. Thank you Ms.Grace and Titus for an excellent trip!

This is the way to see Amboseli!
I loved my 2-day tour to Amboseli with Benjamin from Gracepatt Tours. Booking was easy and they took care of everything. Benjamin was a knowledgeable guide on our journey from Nairobi to Amboseli, helping me learn more about parts of Kenya outside of the city. The drive to Amboseli took about 4.5 hours, and we even began seeing game as well as local cattle herders and amazing views of Kilimanjaro before reaching the park. We stayed at Kibo Safari Camp, which was incredibly comfortable. The tents were more like cabins with every comfort you could need, with comfortable beds and great views. We enjoyed cooling off at the pool, getting lunch, and relaxing before our afternoon game drive. The park did not disappoint! We saw just about every creature to be found in Amboseli- lions, hyenas, giraffes, zebras, hippos, gazelles, and more. And the elephants- I've never been that close or near such large herds! That was truly incredible and not something I'll forget. Benjamin also knew so much about all of the animals, and helped us learn about each creature we saw as well as the complex cultural, political, and historical forces at play in Amboseli.
Response from the operator: Thank you Anna for taking your time to write down such a detailed review about Gracepatt and Amboseli National Park, such that anyone looking forward to a safari can easily follow your words. I believe you enjoyed your stay at Kibo tourist camp where you could view Mt. Kilimanjaro. Thank you Benjamin for taking good care of the visitors and sharing your knowledge.

Amazing
It was a long drive but well worth it to see the abundance of wildlife. Amboseli is full of elephants and if it’s clear enough you can get amazing pictures of the animals with Kilimanjaro as the backdrop. We also spotted lions, buffalos, and cheetahs as well as large herds of Wildabeasts and Zebras. There is just so much wildlife here it’s hard to describe. Even with all the wildlife, my guide Kelvin had no problem identifying every animal we saw and providing detailed and interesting information about the animals and what exactly they were doing. In particular he seemed to know a lot about elephants so if you’re really interested in elephants than Kelvin is your guy and Ambiseli is your park. He was also very attentive and really made it feel like a personal tour. I also had the chance to briefly visit a Maasi village near the park. This was an extra $30 that went toward the tribe, but it was a really cool experience to see how the tribe actually lived. It is a 4-5 hour drive from Nairobi so I would highly recommend staying at least one night instead of trying to cram it into a day trip with 8-10 hours driving.
Response from the operator: This is self explanatory , thank you George for dropping such a well explained review about you Safari with Kelvin to Amboseli National Park. Anyone looking forward to see herds of Elephants you can now plan a trip to Amboseli National Park.

Amboseli Adventure
Our tour was the best!! Our guide, Stephen, was prompt and on time for our pick up and was very knowledgable. We saw so many different animals during the safari...we saw 4 out of the 5 Big Five! I am a photographer and I had ample time to get my shots and just marvel at the animals. Kibo Camp was super nice and everyone was so helpful and friendly. The rooms were nice and clean and the food was pretty great. Overall had an amazing time! Would suggest booking this tour for sure.
Response from the operator: Thank you for Reviewing the Amboseli overnight safari . You have all the reasons to come back and see the 5th of the Big five.

2 Days Amboseli National Park Safari- Guarantee Daily Departure: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Nairobi.
How much does 2 Days Amboseli National Park Safari- Guarantee Daily Departure cost?
+
Prices start at $655 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Nairobi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 2 Days Amboseli National Park Safari- Guarantee Daily Departure take?
+
Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Nairobi is not rushed.
Is 2 Days Amboseli National Park Safari- Guarantee Daily Departure worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Nairobi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 2 Days Amboseli National Park Safari- Guarantee Daily Departure?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 2 Days Amboseli National Park Safari- Guarantee Daily Departure suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 2 Days Amboseli National Park Safari- Guarantee Daily Departure?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Nairobi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Nairobi and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 2 Days Amboseli National Park Safari- Guarantee Daily Departure start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Nairobi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Nairobi?
+
On Outty we rank every Nairobi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Wild 5-Day Safari: Magical Mara, Nakuru Wonders & Hell's Gate, 2 Days Amboseli Safari using a 4x4 Landcruiser jeep(with options), Kibera Slum Tour with Lucas. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Nairobi?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Nairobi?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
