Explore Amboseli National Park

You'll begin your day with an early morning game drive. You’ll see large herds of elephants in the open plains, with Mount Kilimanjaro looming in the background. As you venture deeper into the park, look for lions, cheetahs, and hyenas hunting or resting while various antelope species, including gazelles and impalas, roam the grasslands. After a few hours of exploration, you’ll stop for a picnic breakfast. The midday heat slows down animal activity, so you’ll have time to relax at the lodge, enjoy the scenery, or take a break by the pool. In the afternoon, head back into the park for another game drive, this time focusing on the wetlands and swamps, where you can spot hippos, crocodiles, and a variety of bird species, including flamingos. As the sun sets, the park transforms into a golden landscape, providing the perfect backdrop for more wildlife sightings and photography. You'll return to your lodge for dinner, reflecting on a day filled with remarkable wildlife encounters.
