Sample Itinerary - (2)
Day 1: Arrival in at western Kilimanjaro Camp, The West
Kilimanjaro Wilderness We have a camp where by it will be your
starting point for the safari. This is a permanent tented lodge and
Ranch around it. The camps is with both views of Mt. Kilimanjaro and
Mt. Meru
Day 2: Full day game Tracking while on horseback
Wake up early with a cup of African made tea or coffee served in
your tent. This will be an exciting day for game viewing; the route
will be mostly dictated by the game situation. You are in the heart
of the West-Kilimanjaro wilderness and we may find seasonally large
herds of Elands, sometimes up to 100, and up to 200 Elephants.
Expect to spot lesser kudu, waterbuck, zebra, impala, bush pig and
warthog, with some luck even predators as striped and spotted hyena,
cheetah and leopard.
The non-riders will be accompanied by their own armed ranger for
extended game walks where they will also spot plenty of different
animals.
Day 3: More game…
Start early for a long morning ride for spotting game along the
western boundary of the ranch. In addition to the ever-present
antelopes, zebras and gazelles, we'll keep an eye out for giraffes,
ostriches, warthogs and maybe a cheetah. What we really hope for
though, is the chance for a peaceful meeting with a herd of
magnificent African elephants.
Day 4: Out of Africa
Rise to an African sunrise for an early breakfast. We mount our
horses and head out into the savannah. Kori bustards and secretary
birds are often seen here stalking their prey. Slowly and carefully
we approach the wildlife we find along the way - lesser kudus,
antelopes, gazelles and a lot of other animals. If you feel up to
it, you can canter with zebras and wildebeests. This is a safari the
way it was meant to be!
Day 5: Early-Morning-Ride and Departure
Depending on your future schedule there may be time for an
early-morning ride. After breakfast depart for your way back home or
for other activities.
