World Travel Awards Nominee 2024
Amboseli National Park is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Kenya. It is home to a variety of wildlife, including elephants, lions, cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, and more. The park also offers stunning views of Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa. Visitors can enjoy a variety of activities, such as game drives, bird watching, and guided walks. The park is also home to a variety of cultural attractions.
The wildlife in Amboseli National Park congregate around very few watering holes during the dry season and disperse when the rains increase the availability of water throughout the park. The average temperatures in the park are moderate throughout the year. Little to no rainfall occurs during the dry season from July to October, this is the best time to consider travelling to Amboseli Park. Dry season is peak tourist season, as the wildebeest migration in Masai Mara brings visitors from around the world, many of those combine the trip with a stay in the Amboseli Park.
The name "Amboseli" comes from a Maasai word meaning "salty dust", and it is one of the best places in Africa to view large herds of elephants up close. Nature lovers can explore five different habitats here ranging from the dried-up bed of Lake Amboseli, wetlands with sulphur springs, the savannah and woodlands. They can also visit the local Maasai community who live around the park and experience their authentic culture.

First time to Cape Town
We are a group of ten friends traveling together to Cape Town for the first time. Safari.com was our top choice for travel agents. Leché and Tracy were incredibly helpful and prompt with our questions and bookings. The trip to Sanbona Wildlife Reserve was fantastic, and everything went off without a hitch. We highly recommend Safari.com for your safari plans!

Safari booking
Fadiel was very prompt in responding to my emails. Despite a double booking for our Safari - not his fault - everything worked out well in the end.

Jayson is polite and knowledgeable…Highly recommend
Jayson was a polite and knowledgeable person. He was never 'pushy' and gave us a lot of options. He was very understanding when we had to 'delay' our plans due to an aging mother-in-laws health and wellbeing. We have every intention of pursuing our dream of visiting Africa in the 2025/26 season and we will certainly be in-touch with Jayson. Many thanks to Jayson
