How we would plan this circuit properly

The destination name is only the starting point. Strong safari planning depends on month, lodge position, transfer logic, and how much time you want on game drives.

01

Mountain visibility is never guaranteed, so allow more than one game-drive window.

02

The park works well for guests who prefer fewer lodge changes.

03

Route timing from Nairobi should be planned carefully to avoid wasted daylight.
