The journey
Two nights in Amboseli, a safari built for families: large elephant herds, open plains and, when the cloud clears, Kilimanjaro at dawn.
Amboseli is known for its elephants, which move across open ground in numbers that are hard to find elsewhere, and for the mountain behind them. Kilimanjaro is best seen in early morning and at dusk; cloud often covers the summit through the middle of the day. We never promise the view, only the best chance of it.
It is also one of the easiest safaris to reach by road from Nairobi, which makes it a good first safari for children.
Highlights
- Elephant herds in open country, with a guide who reads their behaviour
- Dawn drives for the best chance of a clear Kilimanjaro
- Observation Hill for a view across the swamps and plains
- Child-friendly guiding: short stretches, plenty of stops
