The journey

Amboseli holds the most photographed elephants on earth, and for good reason — the swamps keep them close and Kilimanjaro stands behind them like a stage set that took two million years to build.

What you will remember.

  • Big-tusker herds against Kilimanjaro at sunrise
  • Observation Hill panorama over the swamps
  • Over 400 recorded bird species
  • Cultural walk with Amboseli Maasai elders
