Details for Amboseli National Park

Amboseli National Park is Kenya's most iconic safari destination — a breathtaking wilderness in Kajiado County, southern Kenya, set dramatically against the snow-capped peak of Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's highest mountain. Covering 392 square kilometres at the heart of an 8,000 square kilometre ecosystem, Amboseli is world-renowned for its vast herds of free-roaming African elephants — some of the largest and most studied on earth. Five distinct habitats, including open savannah, acacia woodland, and life-giving swamps fed by Kilimanjaro's underground springs, support over 80 mammal species and 400 bird species. Authentic Maasai culture, hot air balloon safaris, and that unforgettable silhouette of elephants beneath Kilimanjaro make Amboseli an unmissable East African experience.
