Amboseli National Park falls in the elite category of Kenya’s national parks. Images of numerous big tusked elephants drifting along the foreground and a picturesque view of the 5895m high Mt Kilimanjaro in the background is its most significant attraction. Amboseli gets its name from a Maasai word meaning salty dust. Due to its volcanic soils, the roads here are dusty in the dry season and impassable during the wet season. We also recommend visiting Selenkay Conservancy & Chyulu Hills nearby.
Best months to visit: Peak seasons months are from June to September.
Months that can be avoided: April and May can be avoided due to the long rains.
