About Amboseli

Amboseli National Park is renowned for its spectacular views of Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest free-standing mountain in the world. Located in southern Kenya, this park offers some of the best wildlife viewing experiences in Africa, with its population of elephants being among the most studied in the world.

The name "Amboseli" comes from a Maasai word meaning "salty dust," referring to the dried-up lake bed that characterizes the park's landscape during dry seasons. When it rains, the plains transform into lush wetlands, attracting a diverse range of wildlife.
