Angama Amboseli offers guests exclusive traversing rights and unrestricted game viewing.

Thanks to its perennial stream, Kimana Sanctuary boasts the greatest habitat diversity and wildlife density in the area attracting scores of eland, reedbuck, warthogs in their hundreds, along with giraffe, zebra and wildebeest. Encounter the last genetic links to Africa’s Super Tusker elephants who enter the park along a centuries-old migratory path and amble through the Fever Tree Forests. Even the elusive leopard, cheetah and serval can be seen here along with many species of bird. Angama Amboseli offers guests exclusive traversing rights and unrestricted game viewing.

Led by your expert Guide and an Askari (a member of the security team), who have incredible knowledge of the terrain, flora and fauna of this little oasis, on foot is an enchanting way to experience a safari. Follow animal pathways and tracks, get close to the resident eland, zebra and giraffe and observe the smaller inhabitants like antlions and dung beetles up close. It can be an easy walk, ideal for families, or you can explore for longer if that suits your mood.

Admire Mount Kilimanjaro at eye-level and the Amboseli ecosytem from above on a hot-air balloon safari. From up here, you can see wildlife traversing the plains below and gain a deeper understanding of the interconnectedness between Amboseli National Park and its surrounding communities.

Derived from the Maasai word for 'salty dust', Amboseli National Park is just a 45-minute drive. Guests can enjoy a half- or full-day excursion with a picnic lunch. This is one of the best places in Africa to see huge herds of elephants marching single file across the iconic dusty salt pans or having a bath in the dry lake bed. In the savanna and woodlands, you may spot lion or cheetah, while in the wetlands, hippo, flamingo and some of its other 400-odd species of birdlife can be found.

In addition to your safari adventures through Kimana Sanctuary and Amboseli National Park, be sure to slow down and catch your breath in your rocking chair as you watch Kili play hide-and-seek through the clouds, with a massage on your Suite’s patio or floating in the Swimming Pool, taking refuge from the midday heat.

Angama Amboseli’s Photographic Studio is a hub for creativity, storytelling, education and collaboration. Offering services from photoshoots to camera rentals and tutorials to enhance your photography skills, it provides the finest means to capture lasting memories of your safari adventure. The Studio offers a selection of new DSLR and mirrorless cameras and lenses available for rent.
