Why This Route

Stately elephants beneath Africa's tallest peak

What could be a more picturesque African safari than the sight of stately elephants parading before mighty Mt. Kilimanjaro? The famous snow-capped peak frames the horizon of Amboseli National Park, known to be the best place to view the noble big-tusked creatures.

For three days you'll adventure through this popular park, soaking up its iconic vistas and rich variety of wildlife - four of Africa's Big Five roam its plains, and the vibrant marshes host buffalo, hippo and a colorful array of waterfowl.
