Best time to travel:

April and May should be avoided as these are the peak rainy months.
November to December tend to also be rainy months and at times may make the roads in Amboseli impassable.
The smaller Amboseli National Park located in Loitoktok District of the Rift Valley Province of Kenya is 39,206 hectares. It’s at the core of an 8,000 square kilometres ecosystem that spreads across the Kenya-Tanzania border.
The park is famous for being the best place in Africa to get close to free-ranging elephants. Other attractions of the park include opportunities to meet the indigenous Maasai people and also offers spectacular views of Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa. The melting ice and snowcap of Mount Kilimanjaro filtered by its volcanic rock provides large volumes of underground water from two main springs in the park. Climatic changes does however come in wet and dry annual cycles. It caused Amboseli to change into a swamp in the early 1990s. However within a few years the swamp dried up and the plain turned into a dust bowl.
