Amboseli National Park

Nicknamed the “Land of the Giants”, Amboseli is where you will come face to face with the largest land animal, the African Elephant, as they leisurely graze on the plains with Mount Kilimanjaro as a unique backdrop! The park has become internationally acclaimed as the perfect place to observe the intricacies of their behavior. The park is one of the best places in Africa to view large herds of elephants up close. Other wildlife commonly spotted in the park include big cats such as lion and cheetah as well as giraffe, impala, eland, waterbuck, gazelle, and more than 600 species of birds. Nature lovers can explore five different habitats here ranging from the dried-up bed of Lake Amboseli, wetlands with sulfur springs, savannah, and woodlands.
