Amboseli is world-famous for its population of elephants and other large animals. There are a variety of other things to do in Amboseli National Park.
Walking Safaris – This is NOT allowed in the Amboseli National Reserve, but is permitted in the the conservancies and group ranches that border the Amboseli. Most camps and lodges do offer walks and one will normally walk with a Maasai who explains the way of the Maasai culture, tracks, sounds and a lot more.
Balloon Safaris – Balloon Safaris involve a memorable ride that is approximately an hour long in a hot-air balloon, overlooking the Mara plains and ending with a bubbly Breakfast.
Horse Riding Safaris – Done by specialists, this normally means that you are traveling for a few days on horse back rather than in a vehicle. It is a great way to experience the wilderness as you get closer to wildlife on horse back than you would walking. There are professional guides and horsemen/women that accompany you on the ride.
