How many days do I need in Amboseli?

To fully experience Amboseli National Park, a stay of 2 to 3 days is ideal. This duration allows visitors to enjoy the park’s diverse wildlife, iconic landscapes, and unique cultural experiences without feeling rushed.

Day 1: Arrival and Afternoon Safari

Arrive in the morning or early afternoon and settle into your accommodation. After lunch, embark on an afternoon safari. This initial game drive provides a chance to spot some of Amboseli’s famous elephants, as well as other wildlife like lions, cheetahs, giraffes, and buffaloes. As the sun sets, Mount Kilimanjaro provides a stunning backdrop, perfect for photography.

Day 2: Full-Day Exploration

Start with a dawn game drive when the animals are most active and the light is perfect for photography. After breakfast, you can explore the park’s varied landscapes, including swamps, woodlands, and open plains. Visit Observation Hill for panoramic views of the park and Mount Kilimanjaro. After lunch, you can choose to relax or visit a Maasai village to learn about the local culture and traditions. An evening game drive provides another opportunity to see wildlife as they prepare for the night.

Day 3: Morning Safari and Departure

On your final day, take a morning safari to catch any wildlife you may have missed. After breakfast, you can enjoy some leisure time at your lodge before departing.
