Today there will be morning and afternoon game drives giving plenty of opportunity to seek out the great variety of wildlife in the park. Amboseli is one of Kenya’s National Park icons and is famous for its spectacular views of the often snow-capped Mt Kilimanjaro just over the border in Tanzania.

Whilst compact in size, Amboseli National Park contains a variety of ecosystems including swamps, acacia forests and grassy plains. An abundance of wildebeest, zebra and gazelle can be seen along with predators such as lion and sometimes cheetah, but the ‘star of the show’ are the large herds of elephant, many with impressive tusks that wander the park.

Nestled in an acacia grove by a gently flowing natural spring, Amboseli Serena lodge has a prime position within this popular National Park. Soaring majestically in the background is the snow capped peak of Mt. Kilimanjaro, whilst all around are open vistas of game-filled savanna.

Amboseli is home to a wide variety of Kenya’s wildlife including, lions, buffalo, cheetah as well as plains game and many species of bird. The park is perhaps most famous for its large elephant herds with sighting almost guaranteed.

The lodge sits within tranquil and lush gardens containing a swimming pool with sundeck and there is a restaurant and bar which are all ideal for passing your time between safari adventures. The 92 rooms are arranged over two single storey wings opening directly out onto the grounds and each reflects a maasai style with hand painted wildlife murals and locally inspired furnishings.

Guests enjoy relative tranquillity staying at Elewana Totilis Camp due to its location away from the busier eastern side of the park. Each of the 16 tents have spectacular views towards the soaring snow-capped Mount Kilimanjaro from their outdoor veranda.

Daily game drives go out in search of the park’s excellent wildlife including the famous herds of elephants. Within the concession, there are guided nature walks with local Masai where you can learn about things like animal tracks, dung beetles and traditional uses of wild herbs and barks. The lush gardens are a haven for tropical birds and contain a swimming pool shaded by palms and Tortilis trees.
