It was great to see elephants and hippos in the water. There were a lot of water birds.

Beautiful place, though sparse in animals when compared to the Masai Mara. Great for elephants. Alas, turning partially into desert.

Amboseli is well-known for its abundance of Elephants. We got to see lots of them, roaming around the swamp, which was a beautiful sight. The recent draughts were clearly visible due to the amount of uneaten carcasses across the park; makes one think about its ecological footprint during such a trip.

Amboseli is rich in its beautiful nature, elephants, birds and buffalo. A truly beautiful park that, if you're lucky, provides great picture opportunities with Mt. Kilimanjaro in the background.

Great sightseeing of wildlife combined with Kilimanjaro. You really can feel the animals struggling to survive

Beautiful park at the foot of impressive Mt. Killimanjaro. The amount of elephants, hippos and monkeys in this park is great.

The nature was beautiful and green with grass and water. We spotted a lot of animals. The animals were not afraid of the jeep so we were able to come close and got beautiful pictures. We got a very nice view of Mount Kilimanjaro as well.

Less animals than in earlier years, but still very nice. The view of the Kilimanjaro in the background is amazing. Also the animals in the swamps (hippos, elephants, buffalos) are great to watch.

Amboseli is located not far from Kilamanjaro, but the atmosphere is often very hazy so the mountain itself is barely visible. The park has good accommodations and features significant wildlife, including elephants, wildebeests, zebras, hyenas, and lots of other animals and birds. During the dry season (when we visited) the park overall has a parched appearance, but the wildlife tends to congregate around the remaining waterholes and the lake. Overall, it is a worthwhile destination for people wishing to see African wildlife.
