Crowned by Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest peak, the Amboseli National Parks is one of Kenya’s most popular parks. The name “Amboseli” comes from a Maasai word meaning “salty dust”, and it is one of the best places in Africa to view large herds of elephants up close.
Nature lovers can explore five different habitats here ranging from the dried-up bed of Lake Amboseli, wetlands with sulfur springs, the savannah, and woodlands.
You can also visit the local Maasai community who live around the park and experience their authentic culture.
Amboseli is well known for its herds of big-tusked elephants, which when seen with Mt Kilimanjaro as the backdrop, makes for some excellent photo opportunities.
