About Amboseli National Park

Best Time To Visit

The Best Time To Visit Amboseli National Park is during the dry season, from June to October and January to February. During these months, vegetation is sparse, and wildlife congregates around water sources, making game viewing easier and more rewarding. The weather is generally dry and mild, with cooler temperatures and clear skies, providing ideal conditions for safari activities. Additionally, the dry season coincides with the peak migration of elephants, making it an excellent time to witness large herds of these magnificent animals against the backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro.

Things To Do

  • Game Drives: Explore Amboseli National Park's vast savannahs and iconic landscapes on guided game drives, offering opportunities to spot Africa's iconic wildlife such as elephants, lions, cheetahs, and buffalo, as well as giraffes, zebras, and wildebeests.
  • Mount Kilimanjaro Views: Enjoy spectacular views of Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's tallest peak, from various vantage points within the park, providing breathtaking backdrops for wildlife sightings and photography.
  • Birdwatching: Discover Amboseli's diverse birdlife, with over 400 bird species recorded, including raptors, waterfowl, and migratory birds, making it a paradise for birdwatchers.
  • Cultural Visits: Interact with local Maasai communities living around the park, experiencing their traditional way of life, including beadwork, dancing, and livestock herding, and gaining insight into their customs, rituals, and cultural heritage.

Wildlife to See

  • Elephants: Amboseli National Park is renowned for its large population of elephants, often seen roaming the savannas and woodlands in search of food and water. The park is home to some of the largest elephant herds in Kenya, providing excellent opportunities for elephant sightings and interactions.

  • Leopards: Leopards are elusive but can be spotted in Amboseli National Park, particularly in the wooded areas and rocky outcrops.
