Overview

Dominated by the majestic Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s tallest summit, Amboseli National Park stands out as one of Kenya’s most beloved destinations. The term “Amboseli” originates from a Maasai word that translates to “salty dust”, and it stands out as an exceptional location in Africa for experiencing large herds of elephants in their natural habitat. Nature enthusiasts can discover five distinct habitats in this area, including the parched expanse of Lake Amboseli’s former bed, wetlands featuring sulphur springs, expansive savannahs, and lush woodlands. They can also explore the vibrant Maasai community that resides near the park.
