Amboseli National Park

Amboseli is renowned for its stunning views of Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa. The park is famous for its large elephant herds, often seen moving gracefully across the open plains with the iconic backdrop of the snow-capped peak.

The best time to visit is June to October when clear skies offer the best views of Kilimanjaro, and the dry conditions make wildlife easy to spot around water sources. The wet season (November to May) transforms the park into a lush paradise, attracting numerous bird species.

Luxury accommodations include Tortilis Camp, which provides breathtaking views of the mountain, while budget lodges and campsites cater to travelers seeking affordability.

Activities include game drives focused on elephant encounters, birdwatching safaris, and cultural experiences with the Maasai people. The park is also a photographer’s paradise, offering some of the best wildlife photography opportunities in Kenya.
