Info

Amboseli is small enough to cover properly in a couple of days and famous for one thing above all: elephants photographed against Africa’s tallest mountain. The swamps at the park’s centre keep wildlife visible through the heat of the day, when herds wade in to drink and graze while egrets pick around their feet.

Big-tusked elephant families walking beneath Mount Kilimanjaro. Amboseli’s swamps pull wildlife into the open all day, and the light at dawn is some of the best safari photography anywhere in Africa.
