Amboseli National Park stands out mainly for its elephant terrain and of course, for the presence of Kilimanjaro in the background. Although many more animals will be seen, as in all parks, what is most striking is the high presence of elephants. All the African Big 5 (Lion, Elephant, Rhino, Leopard & Buffalo) are easily seen here among other wild animals such as Cheetah, Giraffe, Zebra, Hyrax, Dik-dik, Lesser Kudu, Hippo, Wildebeest, Mongoose, Nocturnal porcupine and many more.

Explore The Great Mara

You will be taken on two game drives today, one in the morning before breakfast and the other in the late afternoon. Early mornings and late afternoons are considered the best time to spot animals as they are most active. This is the time that the big cats are most active and can provide some of the most dramatic photography, thanks to the beautiful lighting. You will visit Mara River, the sight of the great migration. Here millions of wildebeest, zebra and Thompson’s gazelle transit from the Serengeti crossing the Mara River into the reserve. Experience a visit to the local Maasai people in their nearby village. Meet these indigenous people and see up close their ancient lifestyle and culture. Want an unforgettable sight? Take a pre-dawn hot air balloon ride high above the reserve as the morning light breaks across the golden savannah and witness the herds of wildlife emerging into the day. Your driver/guide can arrange either of these optional excursions.
