During the drive, your guide will provide interesting facts about the park, its diverse wildlife and the majestic Mount Kilimanjaro, which dominates its skyline. As you approach the park gates, you'll catch your first glimpse of the iconic elephants that Amboseli is famous for, gracefully moving through the grasslands.

You will have your picnic lunch under a tree shade and continue scouring this semi-arid park for more of its wildlife. In the evening, when the clouds open, the highest snow-capped peak of Mount Kilimanjaro is more visible and gives a fairytale view as you marvel at the elephants roaming at the foot of the mountain.
