Amboseli National Park , Kenya’s Second Most Popular National Park after the Masai Mara National Reserve is 260km (160 miles) from Nairobi, on the border with the neighboring country of Tanzania. Its magnificent situation at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro, combined with its excellent opportunities to view Kenya’s animals, make it one of the most-visited safari parks in Kenya.
Covering 392 km2 and forming part of the much larger 3,000 Km2 Amboseli ecosystem, Amboseli National Park lies immediately North West of Mount Kilimanjaro, on the border with Tanzania. This Kenya safari attraction is located 250km from Nairobi and 310 Km from Mombasa.
Amboseli National Park’s ecosystem embodies 5 main wildlife habitats (open plains, acacia woodland, rocky thorn bush country, swamps and marshland) and covers part of a lake basin. The vegetation is varied but dominated by savannah which allows easy game spotting.
