About this tour

Amboseli is famous for two things: some of Africa's largest elephant herds, and Mount Kilimanjaro rising behind them across the border in Tanzania. On a clear morning, the view of elephants walking through the swamps with the snow-capped peak behind is one of the best sights in East Africa.

Over three days you have time for several game drives, a walk up Observation Hill for a view across the park, and slow afternoons watching elephants bathe in the Enkongo Narok swamp. You'll also see zebra, wildebeest, giraffe, hippos and plenty of birdlife, and with luck lions and cheetahs.

The mountain is clearest early in the morning and around sunset, so our game drives are timed to match. All meals at the lodge are included.
