You climb into a safari vehicle before dawn as Nairobi blinks awake. The road unfurls across savanna broken by Maasai bomas, and Mount Kilimanjaro — white-capped and immovable — lifts itself above the horizon. By midmorning the plains of Amboseli open: low scrub, saline marshes and herds of elephants moving in slow, deliberate lines. The pop-up roof gives you a postcard view and a safe vantage for photographing the largest-tusked bulls on earth.
