AMBOSELI NATIONAL PARK
Description
Amboseli is Located about a four-hour drive (240 km or 150 miles) southeast of Nairobi, it is well known for its herds of big tusked elephants and overlooking mt Kilimanjaro. Amboseli can be visited throughout the year, but the best wildlife watching is in the Dry season (June to October) when animals gather around marshes and other predictable water sources.
When it’s dry, animals crossing the sandy plains kick up a lot of dust, offering great photo opportunities in the late afternoon. The dry spell between the rains, from January to February, can also be a great time for wildlife viewing.
