The Giant's Playground
A land where elephants roam under the watchful eye of Kilimanjaro.
Amboseli National Park, crowned by Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest peak, is one of
Kenya’s most popular parks. The name “Amboseli” comes from a Maasai word meaning “salty dust,” and it is one of the best places in Africa to view large herds of elephants up close. Nature lovers can explore five different habitats here ranging from the dried-up bed of Lake Amboseli, wetlands with Sulphur springs, the savannah and woodlands.
