Exploring Amboseli National Park
Exploring Amboseli National Park
You'll rise early for good views of Mount Kilimanjaro before clouds build up over the summit, and a packed lunch will be provided. An optional visit to a Maasai village can be planned after breakfast. The visit reveals the singing and dancing that are part of their daily lives and sacred rituals. A glimpse into their homes and social structure is a poignant experience.
Despite its changing habitat, Amboseli National Park is possibly the best wildlife area in Africa to experience elephants at close range. Left unharassed by poachers, elephants feeding and bathing in the swamps must form the highlights of any safari.
