Amboseli National Park

You'll enjoy early morning drives (best time for predator activity and clear Kilimanjaro views) and afternoon game drives. You'll be crisscrossing the landscape in search of elephants, zebras, and wildebeests along the saltpan trails. You'll climb the Observation Hill, which allows an overall view of the whole park, especially the swamps, which are a center of activity for elephants, hippos, buffalo, and abundant water birds. The surrounding flat grasslands are home to grazing antelopes. Prepare for predator sightings, as opportunistic animals begin roaming the plains in search of prey. Spotted hyenas, as are jackals, warthogs, olive baboons, and vervet monkeys, are plentiful.
