Group Joining Day tour to Amboseli
Crowned by Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's highest peak, the Amboseli National Park is one of Kenya's most popular parks. The name "Amboseli" comes from a Masai word meaning "salty dust", and it is one of the best places in Africa to view large herds of elephants up close. It is a land of giants, where huge herds of elephants stand strong against a dramatic backdrop of Africa’s highest Mountain Kilimanjaro. Amboseli is set on the Kenyan plains with Mt Kilimanjaro as a backdrop in the distance, the park is world-famous for its substantial population of African Elephants which can be seen in herds of over 100 individuals. In particular, the large bull elephants have some of the largest tusks in the animal kingdom. Also to be spotted are ample herds of buffalo, wildebeest, zebra, and impala, as well as giraffes and warthog. With all this variety you can be sure of a healthy population of predators also called Amboseli home; Lions, leopards, caracals, and cheetahs.
