Amboseli National Park Tours & Trips
Want that perfect shot of elephants with Kilimanjaro in the background? Amboseli provides Kenya's best mountain views, and elephants walking with the peak behind them creates the classic African photograph. The park's smaller than Masai Mara but elephant herds are substantial. Zebras, wildebeest, giraffes, and lions with some luck round out sightings. Observation Hill offers panoramic views across the whole area. Mind-blowing.

Our 5 day Kenya Masai Mara safari was fantastic. Everything was very good. Martin our driver guide, extremely hard-working, knowledgeable and helpful. From airport reception to on time performance all very good. Good company I can recommend.

Edvin • traveled in January, 2026
This safari not only showed us the wildlife, but also gave us the opportunity to spend time with nature. The group of elephants in Amboseli and Kilimanjaro standing at a distance - this scene is worth seeing. Light breeze in the morning, cup of coffee and changing the color of the mountains - this feeling is difficult to describe in words. The game drives in Tsavo East and Tsavo West were comfortable and well planned. Accommodation and food were good. Bencia Africa Adventure and Safaris is definitely worth appreciating for a quiet, safe and beautiful safari experience.
